Loss. One too instructive to avoid posting for that reason, though.
First player in a long time to expose any actual weakness of Ware Defense.

I play as Black.

Latvian Gambit shoot out for the win.

Dave Ramsey. The 3 money skills that people often struggle with:
1. Spending 2. Saving 3. Giving

(Earning?)

Hey blue how's the Coronavirus stuff affecting you? Have you stopped going out or anything?

I was in the process of assessing and re-assessing a lot of things before CV.

The scans of Dave Ramsey were a re-visit from the time I first stumbled upon him back around 2008, when I used to listen to him on radio.

I'm trying to figure out what the new "normal" for the world is or is going to be now, though; I'm not sure if the rules have changed fundamentally or simply DRAMATICALLY but superficially yet.

Weird message from the blitz site:

Warning: Too many guests in this room, you may watch games but will not see players

Whatever that means.

At any rate, since that 2,000,000 mark needs more texting and posting work to get to ...

Another Latvian Gambit win. Elo is misleading; I had a 1600 something before this match.

Involved, Queen-down, reverse-the-odds win, playing as Black.
