agree'd - i dont think black has this won - at least I cant see a forced mate for black in less than 5 moves (which is what is needed for this to finish within 20 moves)

I don't think I would have resigned this if i had been white.

After the non-standard opening that gave up the middle and showed some up-and-coming training, I became more aggressive and gave up material to get this one:


[Event "Open invite"]
[Site "http://www.redhotpawn.com"]
[Date "2009.04.28"]
[EndDate "2009.04.30"]
[Round "?"]
[White "eljefejesus"]
[Black "BenWolfe"]
[WhiteRating "1330"]
[BlackRating "1186"]
[WhiteELO "1330"]
[BlackELO "1186"]
[Result "1-0"]
[GameId "6262611"]

1. e4 a5 2. d4 h5 3. Ng1f3 Nb8a6 4. Bc1d2 Rh8h6 5. Bd2xh6 gxh6 6. Qd1d2 Ng8f6
7. e5 Nf6d5 8. Bf1c4 Nd5b6 9. Bc4xf7 Ke8xf7 10. e6 dxe6 11. Nf3e5 Kf7e8
12. Qd2f4 Nb6d5 13. Qf4f7 1-0

However, is that considered 13 moves or 26? I think I remember it being Moves rather than momentums... right technical language??

good game (you are correct - it was 13 moves) - well played

as a note: the second post is probably the best one to use when showing a full game - your last one is more for showing a specific position within a game.

Game 6278872

This one made me feel good. I don't always get this lucky. 😀 I had posted looking for a 1200-1300 player and this individual took on the game.

Virtually everyone who has ever played 5. ... b6 has lost, this game was no exception, it is Radzhabov - Kuptsov, 1994, corr, up to move 11, when Kuptsov resigned, so I really can´t take credit for anything other than selecting the right moves from a database, but double discovered checkmate is too nice not to post (Game 6141934).
