Next game he accepts my challenge again, and says:
DO YOU KNOW HOW TO WIN WITHOUT CASTLING?
I told him "sure, as long as I'm allowed to promote my pa ...[text shortened]... THIS IS A DRAW, and storms off.

When did castling become socially unacceptable in blitz?
Wow, I hadn't seen that type. That certain individual really has psychological problems I guess, not only because he is "against castling" (lol), but also because of the "this is a draw" remark when he is losing.

Yes, 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 is the most in my "natural" style but the positions arising from it (when I am playing it) are not very promising for black. Maybe I should play through some theoretical lines though, and see!!

I just laughed out loud at this game! And I'm sat in a very boring kidney clinic, of all places.

10 minute game. I sat through nine and a half minutes with a draw offer in front of me in the final position. How irritiating!

notice that blacks25...Qh5 was an excellent move since white might accidentally drop the mouse on the floor and run out of time before playing 26.Rxh5

Skipping 23. Qxa8 for 23. Rc3 was incredibly practical as well, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to post this ugly mongrel of a chess game in the RHP blitz thread 😛

Bit amused that an 1800 some would fall for something like this.

Edit: I seem to have ignored the bishop... Oops!
