Hmmm perhaps I'll view some of the master's games.

I started off good, then ran into another master. Overall results - less than spectacular!

Thought I'd put up a game I played today, basically this is the only one I played on FICS today and I couldn't be bothered transferring any from ICC..

but I liked this game anyway, the sac on move 16(?) didn't quite work the way I was intending but nevertheless all's well that ends well

Here is.. well Quite a miracle really!

Note I was down half a minute at move 50 with 19 seconds left.

and also note I didn't see the knight defending at the beginning and I literally walked up got a drink and didn't realise until I came back that it wasn't checkmate..

This might be one of the best swindles of my life!

I simply thought it was winning in a completely lost position?

Although it was on time.. was still a win

I'm not saying I'm proud of what happened in that game lol I contemplated whether I should play chess ever again after I missed the knight defending.

But a win is a win!

No, it is finding a game winning move in a losing or lost position.

Here is a nice win over an 1831 possibly the largest scalp I've ever claimed.

To be honest it was basically dead drawn until I back ranked them

After watching a game like that, I am glad I recommended you to Axiom as a Siberian Chess Cub. It brought a tear to my eye, and made me feel proud! Bravo Jaydon, well played!
