5th Annual FBG Chess Tournament- Congratulations to Otello, 1st place with 5.5 points! (5 wins, one draw) (2 Viewers)

[Mr. Pickles]

SackYourPieces (Sacramento Bob) wins 0-1. 

I made some errors in the middlegame and failed to see some tactics. As I wrote, he is a fine player and will be very tough to defeat. 

Stonewall attack? 

 

[SacramentoBob]

Stonewall attack? 

Stonewall attack vs Stonewall defense.  Might be a chess first.

 

[timschochet]

Stonewall attack? 

My opening repertoire is somewhat limited.

No, I was sick all last week.  I may get around to it later.

 

[Juxtatarot]

Andy and I agreed to a draw.  

 

[Nick Vermeil]

I've got a game going with @ragincajun but haven't seen him much.  He's probably terrified of me. Or busy. 

 

[timschochet]

Kutta wins 1-0. He just dissected me from the opening and destroyed me. Very well played.

Thank you. Good game. It was a very interesting game. I like your aggressiveness.

A pgn of these interesting games would be appreciated. Analysis optional! TIA

Also, sand and I are making progress, slowly, but progress.  FYI

Mostly my fault.  Busy days.  Hopefully we can get a lot done tonight as I fly out tomorrow on yet another business trip.

 

[Psychopav]

Sand resigns, tigers blood baby!

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Thank you. Good game. It was a very interesting game. I like your aggressiveness. 

Aggressiveness = timely blunder

 

[need2know]

Chasec over need2know in a well played match

 

[timschochet]

Aggressiveness = timely blunder

Always sticking the needle in against me, eh?

But you're probably right.

GG dude.  You played really well and it was quite fun.  Thanks to you too.  

 

[timschochet]

OK so we're just waiting on SackYourPieces vs Otello. 

 

[AAABatteries]

Is @Kasparov up for another 1 v. FFA again?  That was a lot of fun even if I was more an observer than a participant.

Good call; that was awesome.  That contest plus last year's tim-nament got me back into chess again, and I've really been enjoying it.

Haven't heard from him. I think we should challenge the winner of this tournament to the same thing (especially if it's who I think it will be.)

 

[Psychopav]

I also liked the group games we played a couple years ago with the top 2 taking captain of each team. That was great.

 

[SacramentoBob]

Our game should be wrapped up today.

 

[otello]

1/2-1/2
