    That are some impressive scalps! What you can see is that they are both not attacking players. Otherwise they would never have grabbed the pawns that opened the lines for your rooks against their Kings. (First game Qxg7?! second game Qxc2?!)

    It is surprising how many times players better rated than me take a poisoned pawn. Both game are against the same player. I felt that his opening as white was suspect I equalized after the fork trick.

    As for the second game, I took a poisoned pawn as well losing my rook. He had an easy win if he traded off his queen when my queen was in that crowded space. I played hope chess playing for a big advantage and it worked out. I like in the KG how often these opportunities present themselves.
