#2--As has been said, unless you just start giving away pieces she has no chance to come back, and the same for a strong master. The key would be how well/poorly you play. A queen up in material is just huge at that point and in that position. | ||

In any case, it's called forfeiting when you leave the table, so she lost. Call her a faggot noob and enjoy the glory. If she would have stayed in that game, she's basically the equivalent of an eastern pubby terran that hides floating buildings in the corner of the map. | ||

You have a 200/200 3/3 ball of your choice and the rest of the map, mostly unsaturated because you have all your supply in military and 6000/4000 in the bank. Can you lose? Yeah I guess, if you never macro and just run your units back and forth across her ramp and lose all of them and do nothing while she seiges every expo. Will you lose? No. No you will not. this. | ||

As to your question, is white a huge advantage, boils down to equilibrium. In chess an equilibrium is what results from a naturally symmetrical and even position. As white, with the move advantage, the ability to break the equilibrium results in about a 55% win at top level play. Initiative is a strong theme in chess that white is better able to take control of. A win as white or draw as black is considered a success, but at lower levels color is a minor advantage/disadvantage at best. Depending on peoples comfort with openings and positions some even prefer black because they feel at home in the positions they frequently find themselves in. | ||
