    Great game jello!

    Epic matchup!

    Pretty well matched game between shhhhh22 and I. War of attrition that got bloody early with an exchange of queens and then rooks. Even pieces for almost the entire middle game. Then shhhhh worked a 2 for 1 to leave him with 2 bishops to my 1 bishop, and I eventually resigned when it was obvious he would win a pawn race.

    Great game man. Look forward to a rematch.

    Glad to hear it. Both of you are solid but I have to have a Yisman vs. Shhhhh22 match. Think that would be a bloodbath.

    Do you boys want me to put it down in the standings as a draw? Or was it one sided when connection broke?

    i'm biased of course, since I did technically leave the table I will defer to jello for final ruling

    Sorry for my confusion but what is the verdict?

    Not like it matters immensely.

    Match #1 for the day.

    Jello won a very very close grueling game. I took a 1 piece early lead, gave it back to him, took it back in the late mid-game only to lose control of the middle of the board and it was downhill from there. First mistake in all our matches has decided the winner.

    Good game.

    I'm exhausted also Shhhhh22.

    Advice here. Don't ask for a game after Jello and I play because it will take a toll on us.
