doji 14-Jun-10, 01:41	The Elite Pawn Chess Club vs The Knights of Honor Chess Club. This is a consultation game between these two clubs. The previous thread in the Knights of Honor Chess Club became so confusing that we had to start all over again. A consultation game is where two or more players play one side of the board against the opponent. The opponent is usually equal number of players, but can also be a single player, e.g., Kasparov v world. I think a consultation game where the opposing sides consult with each other on moves would be fun. So, for members who are in the two clubs and want to play, pick a club and be fair not to look in the thread of the other club. Enjoy!!

doji 14-Jun-10, 01:43	So, let us begin... ... by waiting what the first move of the Elite Pawn Chess Club is going to be.
tennesseehiker 14-Jun-10, 01:56	Ready and anxious to begin!
caknight 14-Jun-10, 11:06	EPCC vs KHCC Will this be a thematic game & which club has white?
doji 14-Jun-10, 12:16	caknight No it is not a thematic game and EPCC plays white. Jim or I will post the first move when it is made by them.
rookie879 14-Jun-10, 13:06	Alright I'm pumped up. Let's show the new club who's boss!

paolo2504 17-Jun-10, 03:27	1. Nc6 good morning to all. my vote is this.
kendo-ka 17-Jun-10, 03:55	1.c6 I vote for c6 so we can play the Caro-Kann.
antagonistknight 17-Jun-10, 05:16	1. ... e5 1. ... e5 lets go with the solid choice, although I do like the Caro-Kann as well.
concordborn 17-Jun-10, 06:41	Like ...c5 but... Sicilian's my favorite but my vote goes to 1... c6
rookie879 17-Jun-10, 10:09	1...e5 I was going to say 1...b6 but I doubt anyone would go for that...
caknight 17-Jun-10, 10:56	1...e5 RICHARD RETI "A knowledge of tactics is the foundation of positional play. This is a rule which has stood its test in chess history and one which we cannot impress forcibly enough upon the young chess player. "A beginner should avoid the Queen's Gambit and French Defence and play open games instead! While he may not win as many games at first, he will in the long run be amply compensated by acquiring a thorough knowledge of the game." I would also put the Car0-Kann in that list.
tennesseehiker 17-Jun-10, 19:16	Vote Results e5 . . . 3 votes c6 . . . 2 votes Nc6 . . . 1 vote I will post e5 momentarily.

paolo2504 23-Jun-10, 07:46	2...Nf6 my move. nothing special to add at this moment.
rookie879 23-Jun-10, 08:57	2...Nc6 I like this because it is more flexible
concordborn 23-Jun-10, 09:58	2...Nf6 Nf6 gets my vote as well
caknight 23-Jun-10, 12:40	2...Nf6 2...Nf6 the Berlin Defence, knights before bishops. 2...Nc6 is passive & puts no pressure on the e4 pawn.
pawnstar2010 23-Jun-10, 17:19	Nf6 Seems to give white less flexibility.
sccadams 23-Jun-10, 17:30	Nf6 Also anticipates a d7d5 pawn push.
doji 26-Jun-10, 01:20	The votes: 5 votes for 2. Nf6 (paolo2504, concordborn, caknight, pawnstar2010, sccadams) 1 vote for 2. Nc6 (rookie879) So, I will post 2. Nf6

kendo-ka 29-Jun-10, 08:40	I vote for 3...Bc5
caknight 29-Jun-10, 12:52	3...c6 3...c6 or even Nc6 but not Bc5 in the Bishop's Opening.
rookie879 29-Jun-10, 14:01	3...Nc6 Now can we play it?
pawnstar2010 29-Jun-10, 17:11	c6 I prefer c6. I prefer not to develop my queenside knight before advancing the pawn. I'm sure there must be some flaw to this thinking. Also c6 can support a challenge for the centre.
sccadams 29-Jun-10, 20:11	c6 To prepare the advance of the d-pawn.
