Furious 2 Minute Game vs. My Nemesis

« Blogs home
Submitted by erik on Fri, 09/26/2008 at 12:47pm.

I logged in to Live Chess for a minute to just poke around and see how things were going. I decided to post a quick seek to play a game and... uh oh! ih8sens, my nemesis (kidding - kind of...) decides to accept the seek! He has a habit of shredding to pieces my hypermodern play. This time things were a little more balanced... (don't forget to click on MOVE LIST to see the variations!)

 

 

Well, it was a much more balanced battle then we normally have. I was actually on the attack for once and I'm happy even though I missed an easy mate in 3! The game was pretty good quality for such a fast time control. I think ih8sens and I share the same "intuitive" type of play - not too much thought or calculation :)

Thanks for the game!

27... Qxg3  28.  Rxg3  Rxg3  29. Qf2  Rg2+ Qxg2 30. Rxg2  31. Kxg2  Bxf4+ with the d pawn to fall as well - I like the compensation in a 2 min game.

All that in 2 minutes?!  Wow.  I couldn't have played that one half as well.

The game comments are the typical canned analysis remarks given by the Chessbase gui.

It was a close one, BUT I don't see why you didn't play Qxh3.

Yeah, surely not too much thought or calculation in 2 minute chess for sure. Speed chess makes my head spin!

Ha!  I thought the same thing, shadowc.  Did Rybka insert those human-sounding comments, or are those yours, Erik?

And his status at the time of the post says: "Won't be on the site today. Too much to do :("

Erik: You're addicted to chess.com... lol
