Funny chess game.

I won't tell who was playing as it doesn't really matter.
The game was played with 5 minutes per player only and at the end the moves seem to be even crazier as both players ran out of time and only had 30 secs left for the last 10 moves or so.


It's not a high quality game but fun to watch anyways.Black shouldn't have lost IMO.

Well, white played really well (except Q2e6, but that's too late to matter anyway) and black didn't play so well. I don't see where black could have avoided losing, except of course in the opening :-)

[Argammon]

In the middle game the chass computer ranks whites chances to win around -2 to -3 meaning black is the favourite.


Of course this is theory.



First of all it need black defenind really well and a small mistake can easily make him lose and secondly it was only a "blitz" game in which agressive play like white used often results in winning as the opponent does not have the time to think of a good defense...

That's really interesting. It means there must have been a flaw in white's attack, but it would have taken a really strong player to see it, and except from that flaw, the attack was brilliant. Interesting...
