Now, that's how you make a dramatic move with a rook! Take that you opposing pawns you! |

You tell me. I don't have a clue... Looking back on it now, I think I should wipe out another pawn. |

I guess Jeff's rooks want to come out and play. |

Now, that surprised even me! I seem to have trapped his queen with a little razzmatazz tap dance down to the other side of the board with my rook alternating with a seemingly pointless move by my queen. What's he gonna do now? Trade queens? I'm holding my breath here... |

Looks like a queen trade is inevitable here. |

Ooops, there it is! Cat fight. A little queen on queen action here. |

It's that pesky knight again. I'm getting really tired of him poking his lance all up in my business. |

Guess I'll double up my rooks & see what happens. |

That's right you crazy horseman--you better get out of here. |

True to form, Jeff continues to play well--attacking, building a structured, well-orchestrated attack. |

I guess it looks like fun, cause now Jeff's doing a little pawnacide of his own. |

Suddenly I realize that pawn's are pieces too--they shouldn't just be left hanging. Let's protect these guys. |

With a mighty war cry my pawn strikes out & slaughters the pawn that was attacking him. |

He's doubled up his rooks--all of his pieces are grouped together. He looks poised for an attack. I'm all over the place. I'm going to take a moment & think this thing through. |

Pay no attention to this little rook all by himself over here... I'm not planning anything, or anything. Just going over here to catch my breath for a moment. You go ahead with whatever your plan is. Don't worry about me. |

Double up my rooks, that's what. The attacked becomes the attacker. What'chu gonna do now, huh? |
