Chess, I'm rubbish at it

This thread has encouraged me to have a few 5 minute games.
here is one that I won a few mins ago. I was behind until nearly the end.

I have been practicing my speed chess (all moves in five minutes) and currently and have improved my score from 1280 to 1400. Poor but I am improving a little.

Just finished a game with a flourish of three queens and just eight seconds to spare.

Going to try and beat Sam tomorrow, we didn’t play last weekend, and I feel the need.
Works been manic and I haven’t had the energy to practice.

That is something you don’t see every day.
In fact that is the first time I have ever seen it :smile:

Although it is not unheard of

You need to watch what you are doing with mutiple queens on the board, it is far too easy to give your opponent stalemate if you are not careful

One all.

The first game I went all out attack and took heavy losses…

Second game I was a little more canny and gave him the run around, couldn’t get him in check mate, but his situation was hopeless and he was forced to resign.
