LOL what the hell are you guys talking about. After Ne4, I play Qd3. He plays Qd2 then I swoop in with Qxe4. My analysis engine SCID gives me a +3 in that position above if black plays his best move (Ne4)

By the way thats my game and I'm mighty pleased with it!

You should know how many winning move I missed by playing too fast.,
Yes I also saw that. That was a huge blunder on my part. Too bad you didn't see it. I had never played the Pirc before by the way. I think you were playing a much better game than I was. Until that howler ofcourse.

No doubt you had a winning game. Looks like you're up a knight, or a queen for a rook and knight. Whatever. I just thought there was still a bit of life left in it. But who am I to argue with an SCID +3?

Given my opponents rating, 1600+ and his passed pawn, you're right. He still had a chance. But anyone around my rating? Na Na Na

That was a pretty cool trap. I probably would have fallen for it too. Wouldn't be the first time...

There is many things that convince to stop this, missing nxe4 is one of them, just got lucky I played too fast... Some day are pretty you know. I normally see things very fast, but back there, I did not see a thing.

I said in my profil that I am accostumed to fast games, because I analyse things very fast, I am the fastest in my Club and nearly one of the best at that, but fast analyse do not mean good one.

Looking at your last loss. Maybe I am just a patzer, but I would not have resigned this. ...Ne4 counterattacks white's queen and gives your queen an escape square. Again, I am no expert but this looks playable. I get the feeling you are a stronger player than you give yourself credit for.
after ... Ne4 then Qf3. you can work out the rest for yourself.

Qf3 looks like a bad move. Would it not let Black escape with Q.f5?

yeah that is true. i missed that and what i thought i saw along the f file if ...Qe8 isn't even there so it seems Qd3 or c2 is best. good thing this isn't a game i have in progress!

You are not alone ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

Game still in progress, but how could i missed this. It makes me feel bad Game 6600015

Ne6 and his queen is dead ๐Ÿ™

When he moved I just auto played and overlooked my knight threat. It is very sad. A lesson to learn!

SCID is a database not an engine. It comes with a weak engine called Scidlet, for post-game analysis purposes you should probably download Crafty and use that instead, if you don´t already have it.
