6 Apr 2012: another illegal move by the Pirate

At the beginning of the Friday CHESS CLUB game, the Chess Pirate boldly exclaimed, "Fritz is nothing to me !" Despite still being in the throes of woodchuck fever, I played well and checkmated the Pirate. At the end of the game she announced, "Fritz did not beat me !"

But once again, subsequent computer analysis revealed that the Pirate made an illegal move ! Curiously, it didn't involve castling this time. Instead, she had her queen (at d3 in the diagram at left) capture the pawn at a7 !

The only club business transacted was an agreement that anyone who messes with CHESS CLUB will be cut.
