How would your sequence follow then?

What?... ummm the Black queen has no possibility of doing anything like that in the abovee scenario.

Its a moot point now...
but
F2-F4; G5-H6
G1-F3; D7-G7
Click to expand...

I mentioned that if the Queen or Knight blocked, then worst case scenario is you trade queens, but this doesn't negate, advance of pawn and double jeopardy of Bishop because you run the pawn advance G4-G5, do the trades.

Then Bishop H3-E6; C8-E6
Queen E2-E6 Check.;
-King moves to F8 Check with remaining Bishop, trade when blocked, and take free pawn at D5
-Moves to D8 chck with Queen again D6;
-If King moves C8, Q C7 Checkmate
-Else King to E8, Q E5, trade Queens And put Black Rook in Jeopardy (get a free kinght out of it)

I didnt move yet, i was questioning these moves

K F3-G5; H6-H5
B H3-G2; Anything on the right, but possibly G8-H6
D1-E2 (now D5 pawn in Jeopardy)... take it from there.
Click to expand...

If my Knight takes the bishop, why would black move to H6-H5 instead of just H6-G5?

Sorry about the typo.

F6-G5/H6-G5, the second option is better.
Tactically it frees up his rook to do damage without having to waste a move on the rook. It also consolidates the pawn toward the center where they are much more lethal.

The first option will work in certain scenarios.

You mean D1-A4

Please tell me you moved Bf1. If you did and I was black I'd resign. BTW, since DaShen is bringing up chess history, I'm a 2200 rated player so I'm decent as to what is going on. I'm no FM, IM, or GM but I can play ok.

First 2 moves good. Interesting, but double bishops are always good. g4-g5? why?

Personally I think Qe2 is better because it allows for knight threats on b5 and d5 and it looks like blacks world will implode soon
edit: and it sets up for a future doubling of the queen + rook

hey Dashen did you mean D1-E2 or D1-F3? "D1-E2 (now D5 pawn in Jeopardy)... take it from there."
Click to expand...

You blundered. Don't listen to Dashen he doesn't know what the heck he's talking about. Instead of being up almost a piece you are back to 1 pawn cause you listen to those bad moves. You are still in a winning position, but the game could be over by now.

OK, I dont think a image for this, but black moved H6-G5 taking my Knight.

going with H3-G2

Crap I didn't see the bishop double jeopardy Check.

You should have moved H3-F1... sorry I didn't recommend it.

2200?? 🙂 Wow that is really good.

Yeah I didn't even see that. Neffing and Working do not make a good chess match. 😉

I noticed it after I came back from my meeting.

You've been making junk advice for moves for a while. I said Bf1 off the bat. How can you not see that? Not only does that attack the queen in a big way, you attack the knight as well open the white knight to do Nb5 followed by Nd6.

I understand. Just looking at the game quick sometimes it's really hard to see most of the moves. Oh well. 🙂

Yeah, sorry 'bout that JNetty.... I just p0wned myself. 😉

Bf1 was definitely the best move from the get go, I just didn't see it.

That's chess. It happens to everyone! You make the move and then you get a good look at it and go "oh crap, what was I thinking".

Hahahaha QFT. That is why it is better to write down your moves. Makes it easier to recognize weaknesses like that.

I still would have taken the bishop with the knight though, it hides your true intention + it takes away a cutting piece.
