Move tutup muka ni selalu orang tak perasan. Bukan amatur jer yang kena GM 2600++ pon boleh kena. Jadi moral dia , selalu lah plan trap tutup muka ni memang terbukti berkesan...
" move tutup muka" istilah baru nie...boleh aku tambah koleksi "istilah chess" ...termasuk " ayah pin ", " terbobok-bobok"..."main otek - otek "...., .." main jangan tidak"...dan macam-macam lagi..! :)
