i posted this mainly so that Omegastarglider could learn from the game. but i guess we both need help.
5...blunders a knight (Qe2 d5 d3)
7.blunders a knight (d3 )
7... blunders a knight (Qxe5)
8. blunders a knight (Qxe5)
8...blunders a knight (c3 Bd6 d3 Nf6 d4)
10.blunders a knight (d3 etc.)
11.blunders a pawn castling rights and position (Nd3)
12... blunders a pawn and position/initiative (Nxf2)
15. blunders a pawn (Nxc3+)
16...blunders a pawn (Nxc3+)
23... blunders exchange (Nd6+)
25...resigns winning position (Kxd6 is BBvR)
i'm pretty sure you both suck but only one of you is an arrogant ass.
Originally posted by Fat Ladytwo bishops vs a rook and white has doubled pawns. black is winning (although the win is pretty difficult).
Yeah, but 26....Bxd2 isn't forced. 26....Bb7 looks better. I wouldn't say Black is winning, but it's still double edged.
You both need to work on tactics. Has anyone mentioned that yet?
Originally posted by master1013And then you have a position where Black is better, rook and two bishops vs two rooks (11 points vs 10 points if you like) with the same number of pawns. Bottom line is Black shouldn't have resigned, if anything he had the better position.
if 26......Bb7, then
27. Re2
Originally posted by aginisActually I've just realised that after 26.Rxe8 Bb2 27.Rxa8 Bxa8 28.Rxa7 White wins one of Black's bishops! Black would have to play something like 26...Kc7 first.

Originally posted by Fat Ladythis is all fine except that white also has a knight left.

never mind. I didn't see the part of the discussion where black plays kxd6. but white should have just taken the rook first and then played Re1+ and be winning.
