A rising star falls



After his rousing debut just a few days ago, International GM Colon was the victim of several tactically effervescent king's gambit games.

While he chose the correct refutation for move three, no doubt gleaned from Bobby fischer's article on the opening (available on this very blog), from there the young master was the victim of an unforseeable foible, leading time and time again to an unavoidable mate.

As for Jeff...He was able to pull himself out of a slump (honestly, I thought he had forgotten how to play the game) with a few wins last night. Although, I had a sparkling victory in which I sacrificed a rook for an attack on the king side.
