1. d4 Nf6
|
1. ........ Nf6 - the most popular reply to d4. This game seems a non event, but a decoy tactic at the end livens it up and I hope will whet your appetite for the tactical melee game against patzerblitzer. |

15.......... Qd7 - quite a transformation from the position on move 10. My development is now complete and I have managed to uncramp myself. |

29. .......... f5, sneaky, sneaky, sneaky, it looks as though I am merely threatening the b pawn, but little does white know I am threatening something far more deadly. |

30. d6
|
30. d6?? - white is so pre-occupied with pushing his passer that he misses this deadly move ....... |

|
30... Bd4
|
30 ........... Bd4!! - this move forces instant resignation as the white queen is pinned to the king. If the queen captures the bishop then white cops Old Matey on e1 by 31........ Qxe1#. This is an example of a pin/decoy. |
