[Davidflude]

Yes I have started games in matches versus Spain, Portugal and Finland. The games against spain are well under way.

Obviously I cannot discuss the games but they look interesting. You should be able to watch games several moves in arrears.

[Davidflude]

There are lots of games on the server. This site is well worth visiting.

Hint - look and see if there are any fixed openings tournaments featuring variations that you play over the board. You may find some ripper improvements

you are so right. I am the classic correspondence specialist who is far better at Correspondence Chess than I am over the board. I know the reasons for this but they would be hard to fix. Fortunately I love playing correspondence chess.

I won another game yesterday. My opponent played on until he was checkmated. When I analysed the game afterwards deep rybka found in one position a move that mated in nine wheras the move that I played mated in twelve. It is not a very good game so I will have to consider whether to post it.
