I was supposed to go to e1 for the stalemate force, but I forgot and instead made an aggressive move... that at best moves us closer to obvious stalemate if you screw up at worse the move you made, lol.

Was hoping you wouldn't see that, lol. Gg.

Well you gave me a chance last night, lol. Re3+ wins you the game, rather than Rb8. You caught me so off guard with the move that I had no idea what to do. But I screwed up to give you the chance, lol, because I had a wasted move that let you get into position for Re3+.

Yeah I'm not sure if I can see a way out, lol. Ah well. This could be interesting.

It might be possible if I play it perfectly. I'm trying to work out how right now, lol.

actually, this looks like a possible stalemate.

I thought I fucked this up, but I was expecting you would do the reverse order of your last two moves....the move I made last night was a drunken one. I am still not sure what is going to happen here, but I guess we are about to find out.

I have a game going with everyone on the site, lol. I really should use the save function more often to remind me what I'm thinking. I actually did see the possibility of you doing a trade on my knight earlier, but I forgot about it and just couldn't see it when you finally went for it. Was a couple days ago I think. ^^;

yeah, you're a pretty crafty player, so the only way to trick you is with something like that i.e. it doesn't look like an option to trade off a rook for a knight, so it is somewhat disguised. Honestly though, we're pretty much even and it always comes down to who makes the first mistake. Also, I don't know how many games you have on the go, but I noticed the more games I have going the weaker my play against you has been.

Also, methinks I will lose more often than not to you now. You don't make mistakes nearly as often as I do. You're much more methodical. I'm greatly enjoying playing you, but you are most certainly the best player on this site right now.

That was a super pretty series of moves. I'm glad I took the bait so I could see it play out. :D Chess is all about seeing things and remembering it, so I don't mind losing to see something like that.

Yeah was the bait. Any other move I make stops your attack.

yes, I'm sure you did, but taking my a file pawn with your rook was not the right move.

I had a way out but I didn't take it because I wanted to see the trap! Lol.

that's okay, I was having problems convincing myself it was going to work.

Can't believe I didn't see that. I took the bait just to see what the trap was lol.

it should be apparent now.

Ahhh so obvious now lol.

You're going to have to explain that move to me later. I assume you're trapping me but I fail to see it.

Maybe. Your previous move was odd, though I really liked this one.

well, I might have blown this 1.

Ahaha touche. Really though my early game seems a little stronger than yours, but you midgame is better than mine.

A likely excuse:P

I play at work between calls, lol. I stopped taking our games super seriously when I went up 6-4-1 in our series... I've lost every game since, ahahaha. All but one I had an advantage and blew it. :P

strange game. I don't think we are playing very good right now. oh well, i guess we want to experiment any ways.

I worked out a garunteed checkmate for you so gave up. :P

ahh, I thought there was a good chance for a stalemate there.

Concede lol.

what happened to the last game?
