18 Jan 2013: miniature shocker !

Once again, The Shiny changed hands, the Gabridoodle suffering a humiliating, almost castrational defeat.

In CLUB business, there was a discussion about whether the intense, almost crazed, level of competitiveness that has become so characteristic of CHESS CLUB can be reduced.  It was agreed that this is impossible.

Gabridoodle - Chess Pirate, 0-1

This game came to a shocking conclusion after only 14 moves, the Gabridoodle having failed to make an elementary defensive move (g3 to block the bishop-queen assault).  For record shortness, this game tied a very similar one from last April.  The Pirate, having just won back The Shiny, declared, "I crushed you like a tomato due to my Italian heritage !  I used my feet to make Gabridoodle sauce !"  For once, her comments can't be disputed.  After this miniature shocker, a second just-for-fun-not-for-Shiny game was played, which the Gabridoodle won, however, on further analysis it turned out that the Pirate made an illegal move.  She must have been giddy.
