    My strategy is pretty simple.

    I like to render your pieces ineffective. Look at my recent games. I like to trap your bishops behind your own pawns, and make them bite on granite against my pawn formation. I like to take squares away from your knights, so they are less effective. It's all about the pawns.

    I like to trade queens, because I render counterplay ineffective with less powerful pieces on the board. I look for forks and pins at every opportunity, anything to limit options.

    Don't let me take away options. To keep the game even, open up space and trade your ineffective pieces for my good pieces.

    Well, I could be wrong but I still have the good opportunity to trun the game with my pair of knights. The problem was that I made a stupid blunder without preparing the ground first! I do not blame it on a single blunder but this determined the battle.

    Third game. At least I finlally got a constant player to kill the time,

    Well played, sir!
    The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.

    Beefy agreed to a draw in our second game together, meaning that my qualification is now secured!
