A nice mate threat at the end... good game overall from his side! 😉

Not everyone would recognize that black was completely lost at move 10. I see where white is winning the exchange and the doubled p's (for white), are never or rarely good, but I sure wouldn't see the game was completely lost.
I would have known the game was lost at Move 1 though because of who I was playing 😉 !

The post that was quoted here has been removedYes, you discovered my self irony.
Now I'm a few points over 1800, therefore I can call me a 1800+ player. 😉
But my skill is certainly not 1800+.
But, seriously, It would be nice to have a forum for the elite, where the lower player only could read (and learn). And another for rookies, where they can read and comment and don't have to be afraid of sarcastic 1800+ comments...

At my local chess club, I often see low-rated players discuss in groups, and I see high-rated players discuss in groups. Both groups analyze their games, but they tend to analyze within their own group.
Me myself don't understand the quick analyze from the elite, if they don't take their time to educate a low-rated player as myself, but then they are mentoring, and the interest for that is low...
So having a low-rated forum, and a high-rated forum, where within each forum the other group only can read, not writ, is actually a good idea... But...

On second thoughts, good idea. 😉
