    This is becoming sadly addictive to watch!! and i can't remember ever really being a fan of chess? Come on hitman please make another move tonight !! its been a slow day.......so have been following all todays moves.Don't know if either of you think it only a matter of time before the other player falls into a dastardly trap you've set for them???? Cheers and good luck both, Dave.

    ok may seem defensive, but just positionin to spring the final attack!!

    Don't know the etiquette of announcing, but am gonna 'Castle' K to G1 & HitCastle2 to F1,

    Nah, I am reasonably comfortable with this position ;) Look, I'm even giving Hitman some ideas in this diagram... :p

    Rf8 is my move Mr Hitman.

    HitCastle1 from D1 to D6 !!  NOW THAT HURT MI BRAIN !!
  • edited March 2011
    Putting up a good fight now Hitman! I thought I was going to be able to roll you over after you dropped that pawn but you're digging in. Making me think is a right pain!

    OK, I'll take on f5

    Nxf5.

    HitCastle1 takes knight E6

    SKYDAVE!!  Am flyin to Amsterdam at 6.30am tomorrow!!

    Not back on site till Mon, prob not 'compus mentus' till thurs lol !!

    Hitpup is suggestin a 'ChessChop' as been so close, then you can get on playin someone else if ya like!!

    He says it would be fittin for the 'Inaugural Sky Chess Championship' to end 'honours even' between the two Daves LOL !!

    But as I am such a competitive animal, rather lose with honour than draw !!LOL

    As you set the challenge, I will leave that decision in your hands, long as you dont mind waitin for mi nex move till maybe Tues!!

    Morning checkmates! 

    Apologies for the lack of moves yesterday - Thursdays are pretty hectic for the folks of Sky Poker (and beyond), so we were flat out with real work. I know, I know....

    I'll get a move on the board (so to speak) today so Hitman has something to think about on his return from Amsterdam, if he can think straight.

    Oh, and ChessChop is utterly denied. Pfft, etc. This is a game for the ages, damnit!

    Hey Hitman,

    Game has been temporarily paused due to mucho work with the Sky Poker TV folks on the new show. Photos. Lots of them. All due in good time, of course. 

    Epic show, by the way - possibly more epic than this chess game. Move to follow soon-ish. :)

    Knight takes knight Hitman and - if you're playing pawn takes knight -  then Rf7. That'd look like this:



    As for the show, it was a recording of a live cash game. Some big players, some big pots. I was impressed by what I saw (while doing the pics) so I think it'll make a corker of a show once Sky Claire and co. work their magic with the footage :)
