I never play chess with any tricks in mind. These games just happen to have some basic development blunder which I punished severely. At any rate, I know I have an advantage the minute someone moves a bishop as their second move.

"Punish severly" being the important phrase huh. lol.

Well all this is certainly helping to point out what not to do in the early stages.

Thank you all for your posts so far.

This is my best win so far. I am quite new to chess, and it was nice to get a satisfying win for a change.

Knowing full well that I'm going to feel foolish when someone points out what is sure to be the obvious, why didn't black just take the queen on move 14?

Not a great game, but a mate, nonetheless.
