| Zillions sacrificed his Knight in order to gain
a Ringbearer. I'm beginning to feel the constraining
nature of the opening game.

| The Ring is getting pretty close to my side of the
board. My next move puts pressure on the Ringbearer and
wins me the Ring! Of course, it's too bad my Queen had
to die.

| What I have planned is B*c7xc2+. If White
captures with the Rook, I can recapture with my Rook
and be covered by the new Rook on c7 -- checkmate!
Naturally, Zillions sees what I'm trying to do and
flees.

| I allowed the White King to gain the Ring. In return, I
gained White's Queen, which I must now move out of the path
of the enemy Bishop. I'm feeling pretty good about my game by
this point. All I have to do is press an attack with my Queen
and Rooks.

| Somehow I managed to blunder away my victory. There
were Pawns in the way of my two-Rook attack. Now one of
the pawns is going to promote, and I can't stop it without
losing a Rook. In the face of impending doom, I force a draw by
perpetual check.
