    I'd like to think I"m the better player tactically but I will admit you've shown yourself to be more consistent. I'd say we're about equal...

    It's war baby!

    who'd have thought those two words would EVER pass your lips (fingers, in this case) with reference to an underling player.

    well it's true, you're just as strong as me, or close... our records prove that.

    one possible difference is that I play into openings you're okay with and you pull me out of my comfort zone.

    Patzergrl is the only person I can think of that does a better job of that than you.

    it's that mindset that makes it so difficult for us lesser players to improve...

    well you managed to? You found a tactical shot that was hidden well beyond the level of an average 1400 and from that point in the game on I started to play at my full strength, barely saving a draw.

    my point is this: people learn from mistakes. people will learn faster when their mistakes are corrected faster. when you play your best, you catch their mistakes faster, so they learn faster. hope this makes sense, I'm off to bed.

    p.s. to dutch and yourself, I enjoy all of our games, because (even as much as I detest playing against the likes of the Dutch Defence [the opening, not the player]) they (the games) do help me improve, every time.
