I was just about to launch into my reasons for liking a bit of extra mature cheddar and a fondness for a bit of red leicester on toast with just a dash of worcester sauce ... then I realised it said CHESS ... FML !

my last rating was 2400 i think not played for a few years

Why the feck arent you playing chess then? Do you make a living from poker? Dumb question i guess, only 100 off being a GM!!! Money in poker or chess id choose poker if I was good enough. I presume u make shed loads from the poker Wink

That is my dream, to become a Grand Master, and I want to ork as hard as I can to get there. Poker is a decent game and I can beat donks, but there are far too many good players to make poker attractive for me. That is not to say that chess is easy in comparison because its probably harder, but it is a gae that suits someone like me better who likes to study relentlessly. I can study 6 different variations of the Winawer Poisoned pawn Variation and enjoy doing so (geeeeeeek!) but studying hand history and reading poker mags doesnt stimulate much thought or interest no more.

Poker is a game where I felt I should get instant reward because i was better than than the local B&M game. That doesnt transfer to Online. Where as chess is tough to beat so you work hard and know if u do well enough then 20 yrs down the line you can be winning titles and possibly attain the distinction of being a Grandmaster Smiley

lol probs got that one wrong then. and yes i do make a living from poker

im up for a little comp tho.

is there a name for this set of moves?  Hope i write it right!

e4         e5
Kc3       Qd4
g3        Qxe4



I don't think that entirely makes sense.

white move   black move
white move   black move
white move   black move


+any move with a pawn is just the board coord (unless 2 pawns could move into the same spot)
any other piece use it's initial.

on the second line black couldn't move Queen to for example, as surely there's a pawn on in it's way?

Tank!

You are to blame for me infesting the local chess scene after a break of (nearly) two decades.

Now I'm playing chess instead of poker.  Most of the time.

I'm awfully sorry about that.

How's your game doing? It was very strong when last we played, I got schooled.
