Using only half of a chess board you may place five queens anywhere. After you place them, I move each queen at most once with standard queen moves. If I make a horizontal five-in-a-row, I win. Can you beat me?

So I have.

I think I may have to look at which half of the board I want to play on.  If I select only the black squares, then no horizontal 5-in-a-row exists.
