Analysis of an ongoing chess match!

Match between "progressquest" and "openingmaster".
Seriously, don't trust my names.

1. H2+3 p7+1 2. P7+1 h8+7 3. H8+7 c2.5
4. H7+6 h2+1

At this point, I screamed win. (C8+5!!!)

This wins a piece, but at what cost?

5. C8+5! c5+4!!

The last move murkies waters, since suddenly black has a K.T.P. (kong tou pao).

However, black is still down a piece, and is probably theorectically losing.

6. C8.2 c5-1 7. C+.9 r1+2 8. H6+7 r1.3 9. P7+1 e3+5 10. C2+5 r9.8

These moves were played out relatively quickly. Black was now 1 minute down (8 to 9)

Red is trying to exchange pieces of the board (a good strategy when up in material).

11. R1.2 r3-1

R3-1 is a mysterious move. I'm still trying to figure.

12. H7+9 r3+3

13. R9.8 h7+6

In my opinion, black is winning now.

14. C2-2 h6+7 15. C2.7 e5+3

A series of strange moves. Black is lost. The rest of the match is provided for your enjoyment.

16. R2+9 h7+5 17. A6+5 h5-6 18. H3+5 h6+8 19. H9+7 Resign


Yay! Another match!

1. C8.5 h2+3 2. P7+1 p7+1 3. R9+1 h8+7
4. R9.6 a6+5 5. C2.3 h7+6 6. R6+7 c8-1

Non-spectacular opening. Probably not main lines, but this kind of stuff can't go wrong. Except black nearly lost a zhu. Not tolerated.

7. R6-2 h6-4 8. C3+3

And now the zhu is lost. Who cares about the won che/ju/chariot/whatever I called it before.

8... h4+3 9. H8+7 e7+5 10. H7+6 e5+7

The match evens; the plot thickens...

11. H6+5 c8.7 12. H5+7 r9.8 13. A6+5 e7-5

This is about even. Black should probably pin the horse on file 2 and then go for an attack quickly. Black has his fair share of threats.

14. H2+1 r1+1 15. H7-5 c2+7 16. E7+9 h3+2

Black IS going for the kill here... with another cheapoe... bzz

17. R1.2 h2+3 18. A5-6 h3-4 19. K5+1 r8+9 20. H1-2

Totally blunderous.

Firstly, R1=2 is a blunder due to R8+9. If the ma recaptures, the pao takes the qiang and mates :) *evil sadistic grin*

H2+3 is hence a "blunder", since it doesn't get the free che/ju/chariot.

c2.6 21. H5+7 r1.2 22. Timeout

Ah well. The position was winning for black anyway.

Ok. That's it.

Pardon me for the sanity of analysis. Arrivederci.
