If only it was this easy...

Although I did recently mate someone in a tournament game, in only eight moves. With a queen sacrifice, and a lone bishop delivering the coup de grace.

I wouldn't like to play as white on that board - Impossible to win! Best result would be draw by repetition.

Maybe I should write the definitive book on opening theory for 2x3 chess and make my millions.

yep. short of resigning on the spot, Black cannot lose. and White, who has the "advantage" of moving first, cannot win.
