For a long time now, I've been collecting and analyzing my games. All analysis is aided by a computer and I am most certainly a hopeless patzer. Some of these games are interesting, some are terrible, but all of them are mine and they live on this site so I can perhaps learn from them.
If you play through my games on the embedded boards, my commentary should be integrated in all recent games. Unless noted, all games are correspondence games.

Meterobz vs. LindseyAnn 1-0
[Event "Online Chess"]
[Site "Chess.com"]
[Date "2009.10.30"]
[Round "1"]
[White "meteorbz"]
[Black "lindseyann"]
[TimeControl "1"]
[Result "*"]
[ECO " "]
[WhiteELO "1718"]
[BlackELO "1169"]
{Termination "meteorbz won by resignation"}
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4
{Scotch. Boo.}
3...exd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nxc6 bxc6 6.e5 Qe7 7.Qe2 Nd5 8.Bd2
{Finally out of the opening book. 8. c4, further harassing my knight would have been in the opening book.}
8...Qe6 9.Nc3 Rb8 10.Nxd5 Qxd5 11.Bc3 Bc5
{Bb4 is a bit better.}
12.Qc4 Qxc4 13.Bxc4
{Things are still pretty even. If I was a good player I probably could have pulled out a draw.}
13...O-O 14.O-O d5 15.exd6ep cxd6 16.Rab1 Bf5 17.Bb3 Rfe8 18.Rfe1 d5 19.Bd2 Re6 20.Rxe6 Bxe6 21.Re1 Re8 22.Kf1 Bd6 23.Ba4 Bxh2
{While the computer does not reguard this move as terrible, I do. I should not have allowed my central pawn structure to break down and isolated my d-pawn.}
24.Bxc6 Bc7
{Did I really just hang my rook?}
25.Bxd5
{And did he really not take it?}
25...Kf8 26.Bxe6
{Simplifying with me down a pawn and major queen side weakness.}
26...Rxe6
{My choices were to either take with the pawn, and have more bad pawn, or go along with his plan of simplification. I was pretty much done at this point.}
27.Rxe6
{And I definitely didn't realize when I choose to simplify that I'd end up with the bad pawns no matter what.}
27...fxe6 28.Ke2 Kf7 29.Be3 a6 30.Kd3 Kf6 31.Ke4
{Ties my king down to the protection of the kingside pawns, while he gets the pawns rolling on the queenside.}
31...g5 32.c4 h5 33.b4 g4 34.a4 *
This was my first completed game after a longish chess break. It was played at a new site, Chess.com and I was playing a member of the UCF Chess club.
