Thanks dude. Sorry we couldn't get together this Friday, I finally got my crazy essay done! This Friday we should try and have a chess night, I will bring enough money for one scotch and we should play chess

It was an awesome game by you. I thought you had me for sure.

Yeah I was pretty fixed on the attack, I lost focus on my defense!, but aside from me just giving away my queen for no reason, it was a good game!

Hmmm. If he did Kxg3... There's not a whole lot you can do. Qg5+ Bg4 forces you to run to defend d8, as does Rg8+ Bg4. If he'd taken your pawn I think you would have lost here Mike.

agreed, that was the one move you didn't want to make with your king.

Focused so much on the attack, you miss the defense. I know you have checkmate if you get to move Justin, but you don't. Checkmate for Mike.

and I can see earlier in the chat that you offered me to take back a move! hmmm I don't think that is possible on nicks program, I don't think it should be possible though, I need to learn from my mistakes! cheers dude! lets play again!

Good Game man, and yeah I can't believe, I surrendered my queen, That definitely was not on purpose, What you see there is a pure case of my stupidity! I was didn't think it through properly!
Justin

And the crazy thing is, that so do I if I wasn't being chased around under check!
Justin

Note: you still have a great chance of winning, but you're going to have to work for it.

What happened in this game Justin? you had such a huge lead, and then you lost your queen to a blunder. I think a good strategy for you would have been to trade off queens, and then other pieces for that matter. Remember, 8 pawns vs. 7 pawns is less of an advantage then 2 pawns vs. 1 pawn. I must say, after your performance in this game, Perhaps you're just letting me win?

actually, this is a move that can't be reversed, as pawns cant' go backwards.
Mike

hmm, that is a big error Justin. Would you like to take back your move?
Devin

I think Justin is going to beat me in my current game. He caught me in one forced error and one unforced error. Got a rook up on me.
