Subject: Being humiliated !
Message: I think 2 weeks ago I went to yahoo/chess/social and got outplayed in a rather humiliating way. " 2 losses in a row where my opponent used an opening I was sure to punish, the time was "no limit" but we played kinda fast anyway. Im white. e4e5, d4 f5?!, I was a little drunk but I thought like this: Well im gonna x his f-pawn and after that it will work fine with my queen on the h5-e8 diagonal. He played qe7 I played qh5+, I was happy to check him with my queen and he had to give up his castle(playing kd8) and Im 1 pawn up with his king stuck in the center. He only has the n -tempo (playing nf6 with tempo) for my queen out early and I must win.. I thought I lost 2 games in a row!! He was only rated 1500 something..that hurt! ( he played in a very harmonious way after this and i couldnt find any punishing ideas! ;( . Have u gotten beaten in a bad way lately pls post here, and I would be happy to read any analyze on this game.. maybe it isnt so easy to punsih blacks game??

Message: Don't try to punish.I've tried and you usually fail.Play normally and develop quickly.Then,once you figure you have enough pieces in the battle,smash him into smitherings!

Message: on yahoo I go there by playing solid moves and not "going after" or trying to "punish" them for example most people there arent familiar with the KIA I can play that and get into a good endgame wich i usually win. but what i dont get is why i beat 17-2100s pretty easilly but 14-1600s give me as much trouble as a 2200? you got any idea why that is?
