I think this is a funny game: https://lichess.org/7IdPgNaeBzuV

A modified Fried Liver, which, according to some, I may no longer call a Fried Liver. I think it is also known as the Lollie attack.

Like a normal Fried Liver, I sacrificed my horse on f7, only one move later then in the pure and unadulterated Fried Liver. I drew his king to the middle of the board, I piled up my pieces against his king, he thought he had a tactic releasing some of the pressure against his king, but he didn't calculate far enough, and because of that I regained the piece I sacrificed.
Then with his king out in the open, he tried to exchange queens, I embarked on a wild sacrifice in which I made a miscalculation and lost a horse, but through a lucky turn of events I could win a bishop of him, and came out kind of equal.
Then his queen was in big trouble and in danger of going lost. He thought he could exchange her for a castle and a bishop, but made a mistake in the calculations, and I got the queen and a bishop for the bishop and castle I invested, so finally I had a solid advantage.
Right after that on move 25 I missed a simple tactic which would have netted me a full bishop, but I got it anyway through another exchange a move later.
It was now my queen against his castle, and me 5 pawns against his 4.
In the next moves I relieved him of 3 pawns, I exchanged my queen for his castle, and it was his one pawn against my 5. I queened one pawn and bishopped another, and was on my way to the other side with yet another pawn, in order to horse it. After that I wanted to feed his king my queen en remaining pawns, and then go for the mate with bishop and horse.
Always risky, I usually succeed, but not always. One slip up and you're left with a draw. But he kept on playing with his bare king against my pawns, bishop, and queen, and that raised my ire, and makes me want to draw it out even more. But, alas, just before I could horse my pawn, he resigned.

All in all an enjoyable bold imaginative game, quite the opposite of a closed positional game. It was riddled with mistakes, but hey, that's life!

What I think is funny in this one: https://lichess.org/V3tKStIMi3Yt is the little trick I pulled in the endgame, on move 71. It was a rough game, a long time I was pushed into the defense, so much that a few times I offered the exchange of queens to relieve the pressure, but he didn't want.
But then my queen got out in the open, en then things started happening. With a little combination I got his queen for my castle, I started mopping up his left over pawns, and then it was him with a castle and king and a free pawn against my queen and three pawns.
The free pawn was getting slightly irritating, so when two of my connected free pawns were almost on the sixth row, I simply exchanged my queen for his free pawn, and I was left with no pieces, only three pawns, against his castle. But I knew the rule which says that two connected free pawns far advanced, close to or upon the sixth row, depending on the position of his castle, are stronger then a castle. So I got myself a fresh queen, and then the enemy surrendered unconditionally.

I think this was a funny game: https://lichess.org/1CSXi6Lej6ad I sacrificed a horse for a pawn. The opponent, apparently inspired by my sacrifice, also started to sacrifice. He sacrificed a bishop, which I happily accepted. After that he sacrificed his other bishop, which I happily accepted.. After that he sacrificed his only remaining horse, which I happily accepted. After that he sacrificed his queen, which I didn't accept. I think at one point you have to say: "Enough is enough!" So I didn't take his queen, but instead mated him.

Funny game.

The beauty of chess lies in the combination. Or nowadays; the tactic.

I think that this is a funny game: https://lichess.org/rfH2BVzVrCH0

The enemy was doing well, was two pawns ahead, and then, suddenly, a deathblow: 27 Qg2. And that was the end of it. A nice tactic. Totally demolished the enemy.
The two pawns I had given him had given me a free shooting range to the enemy king for my two castles. And now the enemy was paying the price for it..

My deathblow 27 Qg2 move attacked the enemy castle on a8, but also pinned the pawn on g6, because of which the horse on f5 was almost undefended.
Moving his castle from a8 to f8 was not making much of a difference, because it was in the shadow of the queen on f6, which was now the first and primary defender, and the horse was under attack by a bishop and castle. So it was about undefended, and my bishop took it. Taking back with the queen was not an option, so he moved his king to h8, removing the pin from the g6 pawn. So my bishop took the undefended g6 pawn. Undefended, because now the h pawn was pinned, and his queen couldn't take, because my queen defended the bishop.

In desperation the enemy now threw his queen in the meat grinder, and took my castle, my other castle took the queen, his castle took my castle, my queen took his castle, the now unpinned h pawn took my bishop, and then the enemy surrendered, because he was about to lose his last castle, and then it would be his king and five pawns against my king and four pawns, and a queen.
Or no pieces against a queen.

What is baffling is how fast the enemy went from two pawns up to being a queen down. It took only one queen move to devastate him.

Amazing.

Funny game.

For me anyway. I don't think the enemy saw it the same way. But with chess you can't please everybody. 😆

So this was a REALLY funny game. Even if I say so myself: https://lichess..org/ofk18NOW3x6y

It combined many beautiful elements of our noble chess game; a nice opening trap, I gave the enemy a rook, and took his queen, in a Falkbeer counter gambit.

Then came that beloved, beautiful, but also devastating attack, the horse fork, forking both his king and a castle. If executed, that fork would have netted me a full castle.

However, I decided to let that fork be, because I saw a BEAUTIFUL mate in 5, including queen sacrifice, and ending in a smothered mate.
And these things a rare, to get one in a real game.

The enemy cooperated and let me play the smothered mate until the bitter end. Bitter for the enemy of course, for me is was sweeter than honey. 😀😀😀

With overwhelming gratitude to the Creator I quietly and humbly shout out: HALLELUJAH!!!

Got another one of those four horses games: https://lichess.org/6jUv7meBSJYv

Just before one of my two queens could take his one queen, and I would have ended up with two queens, and the enemy with zero queens, he resigned.

FUNNY game. :D
