Yes, another queen move : I love to move my queen.
Sorry for the time I take to play, but I’m out of book and overworked.
Capablanca and Alekhine were professionnals, not us !

Very subtle, positional and Capablanca-like, isn’t it ?

I’m going away in the Center of France for a few days. I won’t post my next move until next Wednesday. You can enjoy some long thoughts …

You flatter me by calling that an attack

Its hard as I must try to avoid drawish lines.That has meant playing "not the best" move.My position is not great because of it.

I commend you for playing aggressively when a draw would suffice

Well, you wouldn't call my h pawn thrust an attack either !
To play for a draw is like to play for a defeat !

The Road not Taken
By Robert Frost - 1916

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Thanks a lot Yin26 for the answer on my poetry question. Eck, isn't chess a kind of poetry. Finally, this game will at last look like a Capablanca one with some ending mastery, I believe.

I have a record of Frost reciting this.

My pleasure. Perhaps we should have Kitty post up the recording?
