The Chess 365 Project: Day 35 — Tony Delgado vs. ems0518x

By Tony DelgadoThursday - February 4th, 2010Categories: chess

I’ve decided to post one chess game a day for an entire year. It’s called The Chess 365 Project. Hopefully I’ll win more than I lose, but at the very least it’ll give me more chess experience and keep me playing quite a bit. Here’s day 35:

The Chess 365 Project: Day 33 — Tony Delgado vs. 1squirt

By Tony DelgadoTuesday - February 2nd, 2010Categories: chess

I’ve decided to post one chess game a day for an entire year. It’s called The Chess 365 Project. Hopefully I’ll win more than I lose, but at the very least it’ll give me more chess experience and keep me playing quite a bit. Here’s day 33:

Sorry about not posting computer annotations these past few updates, but I get the annotations from chess.com, my chess home away from home, and they just updated their computer analysis service. It’s seems they have a couple of bugs to figure out. I’m sure I’ll be able to provide the computer analysis again soon as Chess.com’s style is to quickly hammer out any and all bugs.

Anyway, enjoy the game!

The Chess 365 Project: Day 28 — Tony Delgado vs. enufacas

By Tony DelgadoThursday - January 28th, 2010Categories: chess

I’ve decided to post one chess game a day for an entire year. It’s called The Chess 365 Project. Hopefully I’ll win more than I lose, but at the very least it’ll give me more chess experience and keep me playing quite a bit. Here’s day 28:

Tony Delgado vs. enufacas on live chess by Chess.com Early in the game, we traded queens so we had an interesting queenless middlegame. However, I think my opponents allowance of me to trade my queen for his was a mistake on his part. It forced him to move his king, so he was never able to castle. His king was then stuck in the center and then not very well protected by his pawns either. I was able to then castle with tempo, which put my king safely away while his was literally on the run. Enjoy the game!
