You played it very well indeed. One mistake and I would have punished you for it hard, lol. I had the forces to do it.

Thank you, last time you lost a queen to me early on, you still won. Took a little extra care to make sure that did not happen again why my ego is still bruised.

Well done Nick. I actually thought I might have a chance. I pushed more aggressively than I should have, but you played a very, very sound game and shut down the usual mistakes you made. Extremely well done, one of the best executions of midgame that I've ever seen from you.

Sidenote: Bxf7 would have been a much stronger move. You lose the bishop regardless, but this way you take an extra pawn and you destroy my castle.

Good, I was afraid it was a trap.

Somehow I didn't see that lol.

No idea, lol. I didn't look at the name, it's more an idea I want to try. It stems from the fact that taking something with your king's pawn opens up the e file to attack, and for black it gives them a fast way of trying to seize initiative.

Is this one called "The Scandinavian"?
