Demolished by unorthodoxy

Chess is a great humbler. It's hard to sustain a belief in your greatness when you keep getting crushed :-) This is not to say that I was crushed last night, though, at least not at the chess session magnification level. At the single game level, however, I was absolutely demolished in game 6. It was especially humbling due to the extremely unorthodox play of my opponent, and my utter inability to deal with it. I resigned on move 9 when my opponent pinned my queen. My opponent's first two moves were h4 and g4. I ask you :-)
