You like the fact that you can put your queen one square diagonally of your opponents pawn and he is completly helpless 😛?

That feels sweet. Well played. Your opponent learned the lesson about castling / king safety hard way.


Here is my best pin blitz game, ever 🙂 Three or four pins, I don't remember correctly.

I am black in this game.
I like my 11...Qh6 prevening the capture of my bishop who pins knight but pinning the pawn which attacks it. After that, even more pins ;

A lot of my blitz games are won because of pins. Pins are my favorite tactics in chess.

Yes indeed. here is a game where i was completely outplayed on the ICCF server. My very strongly rated opponent utilised a pin on my f3 knight which completely tied me in knots.

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.b4 Bxb4 5.c3 Ba5 6.d4 exd4 7.0-0 Bb6 8.cxd4 d6 9.Nc3 Bg4 10.Bb5 Kf8 11.Bxc6 bxc6 12.d5 Qf6 13.Bd2 Ne7 14.Re1 Ng6 15.h3 h5 0-1
