What is your very best game on RHP?
26 Oct '12 21:35This is a tricky one, as i'm sure you all have quite a few that are your favourites. But be brutal, which one is the best? 🙂
26 Oct '12 21:411 edit 26 Oct '12 21:52Originally posted by WanderingKingNice game, nice coordination between the pieces. 🙂
After winning this one I thought that maybe there was hope for me. There isn't, but it was a nice thought. I liked how I was able to predict that he would play g5-g4 eventually and let me put my knight on f5 via h4.

Not a perfect game by any means but proper knife-edge stuff. Allowing 21. Bxa7 and the resulting queen side attack was a pure oversight but it made for a right ding-dong battle.

I've never thought so hard during a game since.
26 Oct '12 22:171 editOriginally posted by MarinkatombThanks. That's not a line that occurred to me - too scary having that much space in front of an uncastled king. I think I was just trying to prepare to castle queenside by that point.

26 Oct '12 22:43Originally posted by hunterknoxWell there's certainly nothing wrong with the way you played it, i was just surprised you didn't claim d4/f4 with the pawn. Nice game 🙂

Not my best but memorable
Game 4168577
The first multi themed tactic that stuck with me. I bragged to all my chess friends.
Game 414954
My quickest mate.
Game 2230489
most memorable.
My best internet CC game I ever played is lost among the mists of gameknot never to be seen again.

Ok I think I know why my above mentioned game wouldn't post... I had clicked 'publish annotations' and for some reason it wont let me copy-paste the PGN from there.
...To be honest i don't even know what I accomplished by publishing them.
Anyhoo this is a different game, with annotations, and because I never pressed the publish annotations button ng mate... but in terms of quality, the other game may be better
