Originally posted by WeadleyI was expecting the opening to continue in one of these ways:
Pual Dirac I think your worst move was Caslting too early in that game and dropping your center pawn. The second worse move was moving your rook away from protecting the fpawn, instead of developing a knight. Instead of castling,developing night would have been best also.
5... N-Q3; 6 NxP, NxN; 7 RxN+, B-K2, leaving us even in material
or
5... N-B4; 6 P-Q4, N-K3; 7 P-Q4, and I win a piece
or
5... P-Q4; 6 NxP and I should be able to take advantage of pins.
I think I posted this in a similar thread some time ago, but it's still the worst move I've played here and my opponents reply is not very sharp either: Game 654354
27.fxe5 f5 28.Qg8+?? black resigns 1-0??

I've only been a member of this site for about a week (great site by the way) and I already have an entry for the thread.
Game 1173756
edit: whites 11th move. I guess I was thinking it would be a good idea to trade queens

My worst one is still haunting me, seeing as the tourney is still in progress. It was a Long Haul tourney game, with a 21/21 timebank (meaning we had forever to make our moves), yet late one night I got over-anxious from boredom and made one of the worst moves I'll ever make. The game was completely won, was just going to take some more wittling down, and I blow it all in one move. 🙁 Trust me, I don't have to tell you what the move number is....
