There are some players who have been able to play lines that I have not previously covered here more than once and my opponent in this game, SpottedCow, is one of those players. Or rather will be maybe tomorrow or some time later in the near future when I post the game I played with the black pieces against him. The game below was played in the 2014 August Grand Seven Fourteen II tournament at Red Hot Pawn. It is the tournament in which I am the closest of winning of all the tournaments that I have played or am playing. If I win my only remaining game, I will also win the tournament. If I do not win that game, I will need some assistance from other players. My main rival, caissad4, will need to either lose or play two draws, so that I would be a guaranteed winner. Actually, in case that I would lose my game against him and in the other two games he has left, he would draw both of them, then we would share the win of the tournament in points. I have added two mate in twos, one mate in five and two mate in six puzzles today. Until tomorrow, my fellow chess enthusiasts! And thank you all who have spend their precious time by visiting this blog, it is much appreciated!!
Game number two. This was also played against SpottedCow, who for some reason likes to play this way based on the two games with White that I have played against him. The game below was played in the 2014 August Grand Seven Fourteen III tournament at Red Hot Pawn. It is a tournament where I have secured fourth place very tightly and I have two games left to finish. I have still some influence on who wins the tournament though, as the remaining two games I have are against caissad4, who has chances of winning the tournament as long as he does not lose a game against me. The game you see below was quite one-sided as you might guess from the huge difference in rating. Rating difference, no matter how huge, is not always a guarantee for victory as I have shown by losing some games against much lower rated players in the past.
