P&B Chess League - Season 8 coming soon….


Recommended Posts

EindhovenDee defeats GCarlos9 in the cup by check mate.

Felt like I was especially hindered by the setup of the pieces, but Eindhoven Dee was imperious after the first part of the game.  Fully deserved victory and I now regret offering you a draw in the league 🤣

Good luck in the next round and hope you lift the cup.

I would agree with that, felt it was a big advantage being white.

I was looking for checkmate after about 4 moves not that I expected to get it but it meant that I felt I was on top throughout.

I went a bit round the houses in the middle part when I had a clear lead but had no idea what I was doing.

And finished with a win over cols407 by a long grinding down of wills. A game that could have went either way - certainly the game report on my side showed some blunders that could have sent it the other way.
 

Well done.

A brutal game, thought it might have been heading towards a draw until you managed to trap my rook.

ChessBassGuitar beats Beef2711 

Beef got off to a bad start, dropping a whole piece for nothing, and never really recovered. 

(did I report this one already?) 

Don't know what the f**k I'm doing recently. 3rd or 4th move, stare at it for 10 minutes then just chuck a piece in the bin. Finished me off sharpish after that(Kenneth Williams gif).

Well played.

DearyMe beats AH13STU to a pulp.

What can I say, another wretched performance. Only 1 more poor performance left before season ends and the players can have a nice break with a trip to Grimsby.

I think you're being particularly harsh on the lads there. I messed up my move order early and played e6 rather than c6. Up until move 18 its level and I have a slight edge. Castling was the issue, it allowed my to push e5 and then capture d4 giving me a monster passed pawn. I'm not sure if castling queenside? or even playing the likes of f4 before (to stop e5) then castling would be more effective? I enjoyed that game but felt I was behind early because of my clumsy move order.

Good game.

He had an early positional lead until he played

7 c4

He should have played g4 to attack your bishop.

7 g4 Bg6
8 Bg2 c6
9 h4

And white has a very good position with attacking possibilities - black very much on the defensive.

Agree, that's the move order point I was referring to, because I played e6 rather than c6. It just shows even with an opening I know exceptionally well you can get turned around.

do you have one more game to play? @keptie

If you win it you will avoid relegation play offs and @Leicesterlichtie will play in them 

@NotThePars think you’ve still got a few league games to play? It’s a tight battle for who gets relegated from Div B

And @true_rover currently occupies the promotion play off spot in Div C

All depends on what @invergowrie arab does in his last game, which I presume is still to be reported

Almost certain some of these are wrong but hopefully those with things at stake can put me right :lol:

There's a defeat missing for me (RBWatson); I should be W4/L15/D1.

Thanks Frank!

Are they any need for the play off between League A and B?  With Elrohan having a sabbatical would it make more sense just to promote third place in B? And third bottom keeps their place.

Also with two teams dropping out of League B I don’t think there is a need for playoffs there too.  Although slightly different as Top Cat was going to lose every match he played and be relegated.  Whilst another team will be relegated at their expense.

Pretty sure I'm done so report must have slipped between cracks I'll have a look back
