									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Went back and worked the puzzle. My first thought was to see if the queen could be trapped. That was the answer. The queen coming back to the first rank set the trap. This enabled the pawn pushes which didn&#8217;t allow the black queen to hide.

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you analyzed your games afterwards to see what the computer would have done ? In chess.com the game review is good, however the self analysis lets you look at areas where the advantage was won or lost by small or large amounts and then lets you see what the better move along with the counter moves could have been at many or few levels ( your choice ).</p>

<p>Played a 17 move checkmate !</p>
<p><span>Finally played a game that felt pretty good all the way thru. It was only against a bot, although the bot is about 400 points higher than me. Am I possibly learning something? Can I win against a human?  </span></p>

<p>Question on move 17. I&#8217;m black. according to the review it said I should move my king to G1 instead of my knight move. It said I missed an opportunity to win material thru a fork. Trouble is , if I moved my Queen there the opposing night could take it . What am I missing ?</p>
<p>Thanks. </p>

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ditto. Guess I&#8217;ll just have to trust the process. Until the training kicks in I guess I&#8217;ll have to be content knowing that I&#8217;m making a huge contribution to the chess world. So far it seems that my contribution is to raise EVERYONE else&#8217;s ELO by beating me. </p>
