3rd Official Free For All Chess Tournament- Round 6 Posted (1 Viewer)

I think I was in a strong position until move #17.


Should have traded the knight for black's dark bishop & held that diagonal with my dark bishop.

Also miscalculated pushing the pawn on move 20 & the ensuing exchanges & ended up down a pawn.

Well played game by charvik.
yeah, we chatted about that in-app, and I think that's spot on... I would not have had a good outlook if you would've traded there...

g4 was a massive blunder. After that it was pretty much done.

you resigned too early IMO

but gg
It was going to get very ugly in there as soon as that second rook made its way down. There was really no recovery from that position.
not sure why you didn't play knight to a3 and then c4. you were in better shape in this game than you think. I'm a little ahead on position, but not a lot.

Way over. I could have resigned earlier, IMO.

I spent a lot of time analyzing the g4 move and just missed the Nh4 response. I could have just saved the pain a resigned on move 15. :lol:

We're progressing. I was traveling over the weekend, and that slowed things down considerably.

Kutta and I drew.
Good game but pretty straight forward. I won a pawn early but gave it right back. We traded off from there on out and ended up with an obvious draw.

Still waiting for an invite from ragincajun. Relatedly, my name is misspelled in the pairings (which may be causing confusion) it should be andyjayhawker.
