Lost :(
My first loss with the Smith Morra this year :( And it was a tragic one: just one day after playing six three hour games over the weekend (without losing any), I was playing an interclub game where my opponent declined the Smith Morra with 3. ... d6. Sometime during the middle game I picked up a piece and somehow put it on the square next to the one it was meant to go to ... it was now en prise and got eaten. Game over. I have quite often intentionally put a piece on a square that turned out to be wrong, but to unintentionally put a piece on the wrong square is a new trick (that I will not be repeating soon)...

Looking forward to your game. I'm a fan of the s-m myself.
I'm planning to do some analysis about both my draw and my loss over the weekend, so hopefully will post the results on monday.
Today's (sunday's) post from the following site has a link to a s-m game by the author.
