    Thought there was an easy king move after the first check and little way of me putting pressure. But maybe I missed something.

    There was an easy king move, followed by all sorts of nightmarish pressure on your own king - I think you chose well :p

    Some exciting games now. Have just had Red in SE8 on toast, but Charente Addick has me at his mercy in another one. And there's a game against Talal 2017 where I've just given him the chance to almost checkmate me.......but at what cost?

    Toast? I would say massive blunder on my part. I felt well in control until that school boy error....feeling I was about to get on top and not properly looking for threats.

    If you fall in the toaster, you're still toast ;)

    Revenge! as Charente Addick walks straight into an ingenious-ish queen trap. The Polish Opening works, people! Mind you this one isn't over just yet. Have also reacted to adverse situations vs johnnysummers5 and AA by flinging insane attacking gambits at them. What's going to happen? (I will lose)

    Anyone else interested in a separate tournament along with IdleHans and sillav nitram? @sadiejane1981 ?

    On what platform?

    App says you have to have a monthly sub... No thanks.

    Whereas I'm about to lose to JS and possibly beat Talal. The Alekhine Gun has been well and truly fired ;)

    (My other Talal game is shaping up into a total thriller)

    Hmm, maybe downgrade the first one to a 'thriller' as well

    If a few more players express an interest I could start another tournament involving sillav nitram, IdleHans and tkAthletic and any additional players.

    There are 10 invites out to for this second competition but only one person has accepted so far.
