Dude, you need a system, even just one.

[lazimofo90]

h6??of all moves.even I can come up with a better move than that.

The trouble with Chess is that it is very easy to overlook even very obvious moves. You did a lot better than I would have done, yes you made mistakes but when it comes down to it he is a higher skilled player and should win.

It was an admirable effort :)

[PanteraCU1984]

a lot of moves you did, specially in the beginning, I would have done the same :) nevertheless, good play given the opponent.
