Just played this one on FICS (I'm white):



I found an Edwardian book on opening traps in a charity shop recently - £2.50 well spent!

My opponent felt the need to send me an abusive tirade wishing me a painful death from cancer afterwards. Some people!

A game of a mate of mine, who is learning chess on RHP. It is a beautiful checkmate, so I thought I'd post it on his behalf. Go Jim! 😀

A bit of ridiculous nonsense. 1 min, I got totally lost in the opening and then the stupidest thing happens.
