Bx5e

Do you mean Bx5a? I have no pieces on row e that you can take and your bishop can't take any of my pieces besides that one. If that's your move, Rx5a+

Playing nonsuicidally (is that a real word? ;) ) doesn't look much better. I would have simply taken your gold with my bishop instead, at which point you would take my bishop with your knight and promote it, which means I'd have to retreat my rook where you would surely have it trapped by so many promoted pawns and knights supporting each other. There was no hope of keeping my rook, and the best I could do is try to save my bishop by not taking your gold (which would result in a loss of the rook as well), or not taking your knight right now with my bishop (which drags it out and does little to lengthen my game).

True.

You've pwned me this game, completely legitimately, and I'll never underestimate you or make such hasty moves in the beginning with you again.

Darn it! ;)
