Very good SG that's an excellent game 🙂

A game from here - my opponent plays stupid just pushing their a and h pawns, resulting in a smothered mate. Shows how getting behind in development is loosing.

The game Swissgambit posted is very good, don't know many queenside traps.

Just finished this game, was great thanks to my opponent. I used a kingside attack with black - Qh4+ with g3 threatened, planning to win the rook and it sort of won the game, a few tactics 🙂 gg!

I think that's an opening, my computer does that now and then, rubbish when it does.
