Success

Queen's bishop's pawn to third

You fianchetto an assassin in Leipzig. Your opponent opts for the counter-attack on the opposing flank, underestimating you. Solid defense might have forced you to a draw, but instead you win easily.


Failure

Careless

You and your opponent willingly enter the giuoco piano. Equality soon settles over the board; material is exchanged down to nothing. A draw.
