Glad you like it.

I set up a mate in the shape of an 'H' - then moved a few pieces
out the 'H' and then played the game in reverse.

Your turn to do me in the shape of a 'G' the last move making
the 'G' must make it a mate.

Logged on to look at my games. My head feels like it's full
of cement. Not in mood today. They all look like they have
made a mistake. I'm taking a pawn v a good player and I cannot
see the come back. (though my gut is warning me against something).

I'll look again tomorrow and find I've been diddled.

I almost always play the van Geet and this is a known complicated line which theory finds unclear. Spend whole last night analyzing this line with a 2000 rated player from my club, I like it!

I thought that to be wholly unsound (for White), but perhaps I am confusing it with another variation, is there something called the "Yugoslav" (!?) in 1. e4 e5 openings?
