Thus Spake Roman

"White is in no danger of gaining an advantage."


"Boo Boo Boo is a good reaction. We don't care what the reason is, we don't want to see draws.
We want to see blood, and we don't care whose blood it is, as long as it is not ours."


Used to be a grandmaster. Who am I? It is so early in the morning. If he can ask later....
I used to play chess. Then I got bored and now I play other games.

A mouse slip? No, Bc4 is not a mouse slip. A brain slip, maybe!

Who cares about the b7 pawn? The threat is that Black may get mated. Once you get mated, it is very difficult to come back from that.
