[Th3 DoG FaTh3R]

I beat Th3 DoG FaTh3R

In terms of opponent's ranking my best win, so I'm pretty happy with that.

Great competition all the way through, thanks everyone.

Well played my first loss of this ladder comp.

Was making dinner and lost track of time. Was planning to debut this week

 

[Jaymin]

Any chance of making the tournaments a bit later like 7pm?? I’d love to play them but with kids it’s just impossible to do it before they go to bed.

Understand that no time is going to suit everyone though.

 

[Jaymin]

Got out of jail with a draw against RalfM. Was down 2 rooks to 1 at the end.

Interested that the report said you had a missed win RalfM. Couldn’t see where that was.

When I had you right in the corner I should have moved the king to the 1st rank. Really messed up there, but has been such a long time since I did rook end games like that. Exciting game! Thanks

I just had a look myself. Very good game to both of you

Thanks.

I think my biggest mistake was to keep playing when I was getting too tired. We were in a nice flow and I think I just wanted to get it done, but when I was unsure I should have stepped away from the board. All part of the game though

Thanks again Chipmunk for organising the comp, to everyone who I got to play against in it for the games, and to the others, I hope we get to have a game in the next comp.

Th3 DoG FaTh3R timed out Chipmunk after a hard fought game.

 

[Deaneus!]

Chipmunk slapped me around yesterday like an extra in a Joe Pesci movie

I wasn't doing too badly then i made a few errors and he buried me in an unmarked grave in the desert

I'll take a game if anyone's interested
