That would be awesome, especially here where everybody(the whole world) can see it. But wouldn't that be a lot of work?

I used to do this with Justin on the phone after each game. If you like I will post these every game.

Interesting, an analysis like this is pure gold.

Okay now that it's over, analysis: Move 41 was a mistake. I understand that you wre going to try and shoot for the backrow checkmate on me, but at this point I have a mere single pawn advantage, not enough to warrant a desperation move like that when it's so easy to counter. So you gave me your knight for free for no actual benefit. If you'd been able to force the backrow that turn, the sacrifice would have been worth it, but you couldn't so it wasn't.

Move 43: Rd2. Move 44: Rd7. 43 was a complete waste of a move. I understand that you were still trying to setup the bankrank victory, but the move didn't threaten anything at all. Had you done Rd7 right away, you would have had a chance to bankrow me deviously. I still would have defended the same way, but I wouldn't have had the freemove to put my rook on f2 from f4. Try to disguise your gambits within other attacks or defenses so that either they aren't obvious or at least you force me to make some choices.

Move 49 is a mistake because all you're doing here is exchanging rooks. As I'm already ahead of material with my king in a much better position on the board, I'm more than happy to exchange. As the person behind, your goal is the keep as many of your pieces alive as long as you can and look to fork me and get ahead. The fewer pieces you have left, the less likely you will be able to catch me in a mistake.

Your last mistake was move 55. You moved into my bishop threat lane, letting me fork your king and your rook. Have to watch for multiple piece forks where by moving one piece I can attack your king with another. Those are extremely dangerous forks, because they let me move the other piece to any square I like that isn't adjacent to your king, because you have absolutely no ability to attack it. Lets me set up very devious forks.

Checkmate in three.

Darn you didn't take the bait I had an epic sacrafice lined up lol.
