6. Nc3 was a dumb move (because of 6. ... Qe7). Why didn't you play 6. d3 ?

QA has to publish a new book: "When the player has to resign"

You use "has to" twice in your first sentence. "should" would have been closer to the intent you describe.

whyBish, you are right. English is very diferent from Portuguese. Sometimes, in Portuguese, the same word or expression has diferent meanings. I was thinking in "Portuguese" while writing in English, that´s why I used "has to" instead of "should".

The correct is "should". Thank you for remember me! ;-)

Well, if 6. ... Qe7:
7. Nd5
if 7. ... Qd7, now 8. d3

So, I don´t think it was a "dumb" move...

Sometimes I made mistakes, but not this time... :-D

seigneur

Oh you're right :-/

These two-move-combination thingies... sheesh.
