Hier is a game, where i am losing to GM Michal Krasenkow (White), Bad Wiessee 99:

Versus GM Hecht (White) i won this nice game (League 2002)
1. Nf3 d5 2. c4 c6 3. e3 Nf6 4. Nc3 e6 5. d4 Nbd7 6. Bd3 dc 7. Bc4 b5 8. Bd3 a6 9. e4 c5 10. d5 Bb7 11. 0-0 c4 12. Bc2 Qc7 13. Re1 Bc5 14. Rg5 0-0 15. e5 (Panik in a bad Position) Nd5 16. Ne4 Bb4 17.

PS: S is N in German

The game with Krasenkow - T_T, but thats chess - one little neglect versus strong opponent - and BANG - you're dead.
Second game - first one small typo - 14. Rg5 should be 14. Bg5. Well done, Fritz himself is very pleased with your moves.
I remember first time I beated the tin monster (Fritz), the chatter was on and Fritz asked : "Garry, my friend is that you?" LOL
Its a shame to quit chess for a BW. But I think that noone entered too much in chess like you will quit forever. Of course I am talking about competitive chess.
Interested in blitzing on chessbase?

I wonder, why would someone brag about a yahoo chess rating? And then proceed to call blitz games stupid while in the same sentence suggesting to play a 10 minute game. I feel like I'm missing some very bad joke here.

LOL Well 10 minutes and about is called Action Chess. But I do agree with you about the Yahoo thing. I mentioned before that the true rating of yahoo players are about 200 to 300 points lower than what Yahoo says. By the way, who here plays on ICC?

Well my name on Yahoo is jdrenter2005 and I can at least play on the standard version of Yahoo chess. (the old one)

games.yahoo.com can get you a 'few' good games.

You can try online for some of the freeware java versions (supported by browser...no installation). They claim to be ELO 2000 but somehow I doubt that claim >_>

I won an 13 player 4rd swiss today with a performance rating of 2100 and beat a National Master. I'm down to play anyone. AIM - harshskills. ICC - JBlaze.

Honestly, you come off as a condescending fuck. Ok, so you are great at chess - good for you! Does this mean you have to sound like you despise the rest of the world for not being as good?

Also, most people have actually replied on topic..

I really dont get NeoTheAKA's problem. I will gladly play a showmatch versus him to show, that we are not "all idiots and suck at chess", and to show that he was rather talking about himself.

ICC is definitely a great site for chess, the best players are there, lots of titled players. I do not enjoy playing there though, so I play at FICS (hence the name i use). FICS has a friendlier atmosphere, some decent admins, and best of all, it is free. check it out at freechess.org

ICC is also doing away with guests playing games there, which I think is a big detractor for them, a lot of people take advantage of that and play for free there, but they probably get members from that pool.

I'm thinking of picking up an account there anyway, to get in on some action, when you are +2000, it is hard sometimes to get good games on fics


and dude, no offense intended to yahoo users, but
Yahoo?? yahoo is quite possibly the worst online chess server. it has rampant cheating, no timeseal built in so lag is horrible for the game, and has such a bad interface for playing. if you want to play for free, check out freechess.

ICC is by far the best server online, FICS is probably second, and there is USCL, Yahoo, Chess.net, and PlayChess.. but the last 4 are really poor environments for players, they have either abusive admins, no admins, or no good players.

Is the only thing you want to make enemies? If you _cannot_ understand what you are doing in your posts, surely you must be the idiot.
Theres a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.

What's wrong with playchess? It has good players and the admins are active in catching cheaters...
