I saved game in chessmaster and changed it to pgn format so hopefully viewing this will work ok.
Ummm are you sure this is the right game? Compared with your first two it seems of quite a bit lower level, unless of course this was like a 1 minute game or something.. But their was hanging pieces refused to be taken and sacrificial queens for no apparent reason...

Hehe Jaydon, the game hasn't been entered correctly and the viewer hasn't recognised the moves with en passant after them

I think that's the only problem the viewer thing is having with it...

Don't know why? Not really familiar with the viewer thing to know why it doesn't like it...

The game definately isn't as high quality as the others. However the viewer just doesn't like en passant for some reaosn.

I'm just posting moderately interesting or cool games. (But my 1st 2 were by far my best though. Will take a while to play another of that quality. They were 1 in 100 games for me!)

Just get rid of the e.p. after the move and you should be fine.

The viewer doesn't have a problem showing en passant, unless, the en passant was illegal

Once I played a game and was under siege by my 1800 rated opponent. I could not find a way out - until - brilliantly I saw an enpassant which not only solved all my problemo's, but also won me a piece to boot. So I played 25. gxf6! My opponent immediatly screamed "That's not en passant, the pawn took two moves to get to f5! Frantically I looked at my score sheet to discover that what he was saying was indeed the truth. So I took back the move.

Meanwhile, my opponent was so relieved I couldn't use en passant, he forgot to hold me to the touch piece rule!

Chessmaster doesn't allow you to even input illegal moves though! I'm aware how en passant works, just in this case it was perfectly legal as both uchess.com + chessmaster allowed the move...

That is a horrible game for white!
But you won on time?
Was it a bullet?

I know its horrible, but that is the whole point! When faced with a dreadful position, a SCT rolls up his sleeves and gets to work on winning the game!

Talking Janek v Knightwheelrqr (Learning scandinavian)

My opening knowledge is lacking because I havn't learnt the theory yet. This was a 10 minute blitz game on uchess.com
(I usually play sicillian, however I want to learn some scandinavian and I quite like the dynamic of game it can create)

This was quite a crazy game, I make several early blunders however I picked myself up after the blunders, continued and managed to win on time.

Smile Vyasa 1511 v Knightwheelrqr 1414 (Learning Benoni)

I don't know Benoni at all yet. I usually play Benko Gambit however I wanted to try Benoni out. Don't mind it and think I might learn it. This is my first attempt at it, and it was actually quite a good game.
