My thought is why wouldn't you played your move as all you have to do is annotate it mate? When I played Sprocket I didn't update the board as I didn't have a clue how to. He did the graft

I answered this above. I'm contemplating.

And I don't want to play when I'm only half concentrating, I'll make errors.

He's not sure what to do, so he's Googling at the moment

This is bullshit. Dave's chess game is the same as Oche's quizzing.

I haven't put his moves through a computer yet but if he has not made one by 7pm tonight, I will do.

If the moves are high up on the computer's list of suggestions, then he is either a master, international master or grandmaster or....something else is happening.

But Oche got a draw against me. Say it isn't so, Cat, say it isnt so.

I haven't played chess for years but I am assuming you can input sprokets moves into the computer and it will tell you the counter move?

Yes, Nikki. Chess computers are well more advanced than Deep Blue ever was. A basic chess engine can be bought on CD which would beat the World Champion for less than £20.

I'm not yet saying this is what Dave is doing but he is playing a fantastic response to mine which only regular, decent players on the circuit who study the game and are graded higher than me would know.

It is impossible that the opening moves he has played are just random moves.

I know what I'm talking about.

If he is such a player, then I have no problem. But he claims he is not.

Sprocket on the verge here, absolutely seething.

Well done Dave, you have the pretend Welsh man well and truly rattled.
