actually, it is going to cost me too much material. I'd prefer to start a new 1
Mike

sorry mistake, I hit accept by accident. Rollback?
Mike

i thought you'd go for the queen trade though.
Mike

you are right, my concern was that you could swing your attack over there really fast, but looking at the trouble I'm in now makes me think it wasn't a valid concern.

I tend to think that instead of a3 and b4, you should consider to castle then. Now the consequences are pretty clear. I don't think the H rook is a huge danger as long as you have a night at G3, and you can do h3 at any time.

hmmm, I lost this game about ten moves ago. Nice trade with your dark bishop. Also, that h file rook prevented me from castling.

Good Game. I was expecting bxc5 though.

haha, yes please. I knew I wanted to defend that pawn, but I think I ended up over analyzing, and then thought that this was a perfect move. Also, I received your email, but I am going to wait for a day or two before I respond.

Oh, I was hoping you would be taking mathematical finance with me. Okay, I'm sure Devin would like to play you as well, so just let me know when.

Sure. BTW, I will check my schedule, if you'd like, then maybe we can meet at school (though I have finished my degree, I still need to go there to settle certain matters) in September or October.
Mike

oops, not what I meant to do. can I have a rollback?
Devin
