Game 1: Me vs Arty - 4/20/13 on iggamecenter.com

This is the first of 2 games I played against the programmer at iggamecenter.com, back when I was only playing every couple of months. And off we go...

1. c8-c6 a4-c2
2. c1xa3
Trying to escape a possible wall.

...a2-d2
3. d1-f3
Another escape route.

...h7-e4?


This allows e1xe4 with no counter-play.

4. e1xe4 a7-c5
5. d8-d6 a6-c4
6. a3-d3 a5-d5
7. b1-b3?
b1-e1 is better.

...h5-e5
8. f8-f5 h4xe4!

Removes a vital connecting piece and keeps black's pieces separated.
9. e8xe5 h6-f4
10. c6-e6 h2-e2
11. g1-e3??

The losing move of the game. This allows c5xe3 with red capturing a vital connecting piece while connecting himself. 

...c5xe3
12. f1-e1
Trying to avoid h3xf1#, but it's now mate in 2 no matter what.

...h3-g2
13. e1-f2 g2-g4# (or ...g2-f1#)
