Today I won my fastest game to date against a a rated player, in all of 9 moves...
How did I do it, simple, I deployed a trap...
Which one, the Ruy Lopez Berlin Defense Trap...
Needless to say, I was playing black and my opponent opened with the king pawn and I mirrored his move...
Then he played the king-side knight and I lunged forward my queen-side knight...
He moved his bishop to the c4 square and I marched my d-pawn one square to defend my central-e pawn...
He castled and I rode my king-side knight forward...
He did the same with his queen-side knight and then trap line starts...
I throw the fishing pole in the form of my f-knight to the g4 square...
He tries to shoo it away with the h-pawn and falls right in the trap...
I play h2-h4, hoping that he would take the knight and I then I would get a chance to open up the file for my rook...
He resists the urge and moves his knight to the h-file, so as to attack my knight from another angle...
I move my queen on to the h-file and intensify the onslaught...
He chooses to take the knight and I wholeheartedly accept the pawn and thereby opening up the file...
He pushes the f-pawn in the hop of opening up an escape route for his king...
I block all routes by marching my g-pawn by one square...
Helplessly in a hopeless situation, he resigns...
Signing off...
