Sacrifices Must Be Made

Submitted by WolfLore on Wed Nov 26, 2008 12:19pm.

I realize my opponent was rated 300 points beneath me, but really I thought my sacrifices were interesting.  The Bishop deliberately and the Knight by consequence.  My opponent had missed an opportunity to draw by perpetual check (in the moves l... Read more »

A Single Pawn

Submitted by WolfLore on Tue Nov 18, 2008 2:45pm.

It's not often that I have a very aggressive passed pawn.  Much less often that it singlehandedly (sorta) wins the game.  Of course, it was actually supporting the winning piece, but without the pawn, it never would have been possible. Please... Read more »

Unrated... Unfortunately

Submitted by WolfLore on Thu Nov 13, 2008 2:47pm.

I opted to play an unrated game today in an effort to play more for relaxation than for rating.  I find myself afraid of playing players with ratings much higher than mine on Live Chess simply because of the time pressure.  However, in a more re... Read more »

A Decent Game

Submitted by WolfLore on Mon Nov 10, 2008 10:03am.

I've been playing with Sicilian some more as Black.  By no means have I learned it fully, but I find some of the games it produces to be interesting. Read more »

Gone in 300 Seconds

Submitted by WolfLore on Mon Oct 20, 2008 12:49pm.

One of my more fun Blitz games.  It's against a slightly stronger opponent (by rating) and though we both made some mistakes I had a definite edge.  Unfortunately I wasted a little too much time in the middle of the game trying to decide on a mo... Read more »

Fast Yet Beautiful

Submitted by WolfLore on Thu Oct 9, 2008 2:51pm.

I don't play many Quick games, but the list in Live Chess slipped this under my mouse right as I clicked.  Rather than abort and leave my opponent looking for new opposition, I decided to give it a shot. Obviously there are some things that c... Read more »

Cracking the Kingside

Submitted by WolfLore on Mon Aug 18, 2008 12:53pm.

Not the best game on this site, I know.  However it had a sacrifice I was happy to see ended up paying off in the long run by wrecking White's pawn structure and putting his King in an uncomfortable position. As always, please comment ... Read more »

Genius Move

Submitted by WolfLore on Fri Aug 15, 2008 8:00am.

A slower game with a little bit better play on my part (I think).  Still riddled with things I could have done better though.  Also, I don't particularly think I'm a genius for the move which earned the comment, though I think it was a s... Read more »
