Didn't know I supposed to annotate games in this MT I lost. Will do this one first then get to the to the others when time allows. Playing some fellow with Evil for a middle name who is ranked over 2100. My middle name is Dan and I am a 1300 guy, so I think we know what the outcome will be. This is the starting position and the only thing I figure out about this is that I don't like it. |

I have no idea why i did this or what else I was supposed to do. Seemed like he did this move in the last game we played or something so I thought I would give it a go. |

Groovy. I am down one point and he has an open file to move his rook to. |

Yup, there is that rook. Against somebody my level I might have some clue what to do over the next few moves as I would anticipate a few mistakes and the chance to exploit them (as well as hoping they would miss my blunders), but I don't get many such chances on a big scale from myevilluck. |

For a split second here I seem to be doing okay. |

I don't like it one bit. Not one bit. |

Queen is threatened and a little pinned in. I am having a hard time sorting out what to do. |

I guess a pretty bad move but I did not have that many. Maybe there is so attack i could launch from here but I am not seeing it. Know I am on the ropes and lose motivation. |

Seems like the attack is on h2, and no doubt it is, but really things turn in another direction shortly. |

Seems logical to protect h2. |

Using his bishops well. |

I am not one to waste time and energy when I am obviously losing to a much better player. I don't want to roll over and die, but death is imminent regardless. |

This was a dumb move I know as I see the black bishop pin, but I am in that flustered mood where I am going to get at least one more pawn. |

Yea, I saw this too, but I did not see the entire picture. Did not see I was about to lose my rook but at the same time the fight is out of me and I am getting tired. |

Wonder if I can still get control of the center? |

Want to resign but I am actually totally impressed by how it played out and want to die in the saddle. |
