My fault As you didn't realise I'm happy to scratch that and replay it. That's no way for your cup run to come to an end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The losses were against Dearyme (2), eindhovendee, AimHere and el_scorgio. On an unrelated matter I've still not figured out how to set up a rated game on the app so @eindhovendee and @Ziggy you might prefer to send me an invite if you want to boost your rating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pin was eventually what decided the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggysBeard Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) cols407 beats paakman01 by checkmate. I thought I played well but on review I notice I blocked my queen which could have easily been trapped. Fortunate for that to have gone unnoticed.

Curmudgeon Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 In the Scottish cup Board_stupid defeats hammysgettingpumped by resignation. Two mistakes determined the the outcome. The first one was an early rook capture which was made easier for me due to the starting layout of the pieces. The second was a pawn move that allowed a knight fork on king and queen. Other than that Hammy played a solid game which took me a while to break down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed that more than our first affair, apparently my only blunder was the second move, but always going to struggle against a good player like yourself. Thanks for the game, enjoy the rest of the cup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkneil Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 gkneil defeats @Frank Grimes via resignation in the cup. Unlucky man, it was fairly even up until a couple of inaccuracies or so let me clear your pawns out on one side which let me push my own. Just the single blunder putting my king in check, inadvertently preventing the queen from defending against me. Good game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
