Login to get PGN standard 60+30, 2009-02-20

1.e4 (0:00) e6 (0:00) 2.d4 (0:13) d5 (0:05) 3.Nc3 (0:08) Nf6 (1:59) 4.Bg5 (0:05) Be7 (0:03)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: well, off goes his dark bishop, which I figured would be hist best.
Aneirin(1854) whispers: mental note: have a deeper opening book than 3 moves in the french.
pchesso(1738) whispers: seems aneirin is no friend of the french :) - now e5 h6! 5.e5 (1:59) Nfd7 (0:07) 6.Bxe7 (0:22) Qxe7 (0:10)
ktmare(1830) whispers: h6?
pchesso(1738) whispers: hm, strange, why not h6 and make it a more mccutcheon kind of game?
pchesso(1738) whispers: not h6, ktmare?
ktmare(1830) whispers: loses a piece doesnt it ?
pchesso(1738) whispers: why?
ktmare(1830) whispers: exf6 hxg5 fxe7
ktmare(1830) whispers: no?
ktmare(1830) whispers: im not seeing things too well today
pchesso(1738) whispers: no
ktmare(1830) whispers: so i could be wrong
pchesso(1738) whispers: e5 h6 exf6 gxf6
ktmare(1830) whispers: then i move the bishop
ktmare(1830) whispers: you lost piece
pchesso(1738) whispers: true
ktmare(1830) whispers: is it some theoretical line?
ktmare(1830) whispers: i dont know the french too well
pchesso(1738) whispers: still, Bxf6 Bxf6 gxf6 and a nice position for french
pchesso(1738) whispers: i don't play classical french either, but h6 is a classic in many lines of the french
Aneirin(1854) whispers: f4 looks good. I'm gonna play for a strong center. I even consider f4 c5 dxc Nxc5 Bd3 Nxd3 Qxd3 to make him give up the N for my good B, but it would eliminate a piece that can fight for the dark squares.
ktmare(1830) whispers: i think after e5 black has to play nd7
ktmare(1830) whispers: btw how have you been?
pchesso(1738) whispers: still think e5 h6 is fine for black... - anyway, been tfine, thank you! :)
pchesso(1738) whispers: how about you?
ktmare(1830) whispers: glad to hear it 7.f4 (4:47)
ktmare(1830) whispers: been ok i guess
ktmare(1830) whispers: cant complain
pchesso(1738) whispers: you were close to draw at least, today
ktmare(1830) whispers: yes i wasnt seeing too clearly today and i tried to play on his time trouble
ktmare(1830) whispers: and i blundered
pchesso(1738) whispers: i did not like Bf5; the B was doi8ng so nice keeping the black d-pawn
ktmare(1830) whispers: yes i made 2 or 3 bad moves at the end
ktmare(1830) whispers: live and learn i guess
pchesso(1738) whispers: :) 7...c5 (2:05)
ktmare(1830) whispers: anyway goooo aneirin!
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes, go aneirin!
mmck(1768) whispers: bah abh shish boom baa A - N - E - I -R - I - N
pchesso(1738) whispers: now white has Nb5 and Nd6 with a lot of confusion for blakc 8.dxc5 (1:56)
ktmare(1830) whispers: i woulda played nf3 i think
pchesso(1738) whispers: why not Nb5 > Nd6
Aneirin(1854) whispers: might castle queenside and experiment a little. :)
ktmare(1830) whispers: might be ok but you gotta develop the other pieces too
ktmare(1830) whispers: i dont know this stuff much
pchesso(1738) whispers: white development is nothing in the french... i am a french player myself, i know these lines :) 8...Nxc5 (3:09)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: at least any failed experiments will not harm my team like in TL here. :) 9.Bd3 (0:29)
ktmare(1830) whispers: well you probably know better than me then
pchesso(1738) whispers: a white N on d6 kills black. i had to learn that the hard way, a lot of times
mmck(1768) whispers: uh oh don't make excuses for loosing already LOL
pchesso(1738) whispers: i lost bitter games due to that N on d6
pchesso(1738) whispers: it paralyzes black totally
mmck(1768) whispers: ya a N on d6 does look pretty hard to get rid of
Aneirin(1854) whispers: still sticking with the plan. if he exchanges, I might castle queenside and go for his K.
ktmare(1830) whispers: there is no way to be rid of it?
ktmare(1830) whispers: perhaps not
pchesso(1738) whispers: you need at least 4 moves to get rid of it (if you have lost your dark-squared B already)
ktmare(1830) whispers: yes i could see it would take some time 9...O-O (2:52)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: let's just fortify e5 for now then. 10.Nf3 (1:57)
ktmare(1830) whispers: finally
ktmare(1830) whispers: i thought he was gonna just leave that knight on g1 to save tempii or something;)
ktmare(1830) whispers: i wonder if black plays some non descript move like nc6 if white can play bh7+
ktmare(1830) whispers: looks like it
mmck(1768) whispers: he could still put his N on d6
ktmare(1830) whispers: yes true
ktmare(1830) whispers: but black might play b6 and nb7 now
ktmare(1830) whispers: and exchange it 10...Nxd3+ (4:21)
pchesso(1738) whispers: seems white is not interested in N>d6; he could have played that long before
mmck(1768) whispers: N on b6 and g5 looks promising to me but I am not calculating
ktmare(1830) whispers: yes i dont think it entered his mind
ktmare(1830) whispers: i think nxd3 was a good move
pchesso(1738) whispers: definitely 11.Qxd3 (1:00)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: well, got what I wanted. let's hope I wished well.
ktmare(1830) whispers: now b6 and ba6 could be strong
ktmare(1830) whispers: whites gotta play for kingside attack black on the queenside seems to me 11...h6 (1:43)
mmck(1768) whispers: he is gonna long castle though you think?
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes, h4, Rh3, Rg3 are classics in the french
ktmare(1830) whispers: black already has an open file to use
Aneirin(1854) whispers: that looks an unnecessary weakening of his K-side. I was actually even intending Ng5 to spend a tempo inducing it.
ktmare(1830) whispers: i think h6 was wasted too
ktmare(1830) whispers: g4 g5 will be stronger now
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes, black had to play f5
ktmare(1830) whispers: looks right
mmck(1768) whispers: 0-0-0 now
ktmare(1830) whispers: well just play g4 ani
ktmare(1830) whispers: before he can play f5 12.O-O-O (2:38)
ktmare(1830) whispers: there was plenty of time to castle i think 12...Nd7 (0:55)
ktmare(1830) whispers: nb6-c4 i guess
Aneirin(1854) whispers: either g4 or Nb5 (idea Nd6) look good here
mmck(1768) whispers: now Nd6 LOL
Aneirin(1854) whispers: the former plan would be g4 h4 h5 g5 so that he can't push to h5 himself
Aneirin(1854) whispers: looks more fun. :) let's do that. 13.g4 (5:18) Nb6 (0:13)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: hehe should've done that other one.
Aneirin(1854) whispers: after Nc4 a3 should delay his plan a little 14.h4 (4:59)
mmck(1768) whispers: CHARGE! heh
ktmare(1830) whispers: if ani had an I pawn next to his H pawn he would push that too 14...Nc4 (1:14)
mmck(1768) whispers: black thinking Qb4 maybe?
ktmare(1830) whispers: no doubt about it
ktmare(1830) whispers: i dont like a3 though
mmck(1768) whispers: Nd2?
ktmare(1830) whispers: yeah or rdg1 or something
mmck(1768) whispers: I think Nd2 is the only way to defend that I can see anyway
mmck(1768) whispers: I agree a3 looks risky
ktmare(1830) whispers: well if rdg1 on qb4 he could play nd1
ktmare(1830) whispers: and then his king is safe and he can power ahead with f5
ktmare(1830) whispers: h4 was a wasted tempo imo
ktmare(1830) whispers: been wrong before though
ktmare(1830) whispers: seems ani isnt liking the looks of a3 either
mmck(1768) whispers: after Bd7 the rooks come over and it starts to look sticky I cant see that far with much accuracy but seems hard to defend Nd2 at least challenges that very pesky N 15.a3 (8:17) a6 (0:43)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: maybe a bit slow. I liked b5
mmck(1768) whispers: a6? why did he do that?
ktmare(1830) whispers: well he better play f5 now
ktmare(1830) whispers: yeah b5 was better 16.h5 (1:10)
mmck(1768) whispers: g5 I thought here
Aneirin(1854) whispers: well, my plan was the king of slowness, I shouldn't be speaking.
mmck(1768) whispers: maybe not I am always making the wrong choices in these pawn pushes
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: g5 h5 so white do h5 before g5 16...f6 (1:18)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: looks ugly.
mmck(1768) whispers: Nh4?
mmck(1768) whispers: Rhe1 or Qd1 to support e5 maybe?
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: g5 or Nh4 candidate imho
mmck(1768) whispers: g5 is bad I think
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: yes i miss e.g Qg5 with check
mmck(1768) whispers: ya leaves e5 hanging cant take with N because of Q+
Aneirin(1854) whispers: immediate g5 seems to fail :(
mmck(1768) whispers: I mean you can but lose pawn etc 17.Rdg1 (10:45) b5 (0:09) 18.g5 (0:58)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: well, it sure counts as a fun experiment.
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: strange move 17 f5 maybe good was
mmck(1768) whispers: or fxe5 18...Rf7 (4:04)
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: maybe not 17 f5 Ne5 Ne5 fe5 fe6 Be6 Nd5 but black Qg5
mmck(1768) whispers: uh oh I think that was bad am I missing something? gxh6?
pchesso(1738) whispers: black is dead
pchesso(1738) whispers: exf6
Aneirin(1854) whispers: I'm doubting between gxf and gxh
pchesso(1738) whispers: exf6 and black is paralyezed because of gx with check
mmck(1768) whispers: isnt gx better? R on K either one is good 19.gxf6 (4:17)
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: pchesso want ef6 q~ gh6
pchesso(1738) whispers: ex first, involve another pawn
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes 19...Qf8 (0:37)
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: ef6 was GOOD ;)
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes, exf6 was better - but still, black is dead anyway
mmck(1768) whispers: this is bad for black no? fxg7 rxg7 rxg7 qxg7 rg1 wins queen?
pchesso(1738) whispers: i know best - i lost soooo many games with this as black :)
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: fg7 i prefer Rg7 Rg7 fg7
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes, or Rg6
pchesso(1738) whispers: Rxg7 probably more direct
mmck(1768) whispers: ya pick your poison this is bad for black either way
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: Ng5 hg5 fg5 funny
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: no fun :( Ng5 hg5 fg5 Ne5
mmck(1768) whispers: fxg7 rxg7 nxd5
pchesso(1738) whispers: hmm, wilk, your line was really funny:
pchesso(1738) whispers: Ng5 hg5 fg5 Ne5 Qh7!! Kxh7 g6+
pchesso(1738) whispers: not sure if it works :)
Aneirin(1854) whispers: oh whatever, if I lose it will be in style 20.Ng5 (9:28)
pchesso(1738) whispers: yay :D
mmck(1768) whispers: LOL he played it
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: maybe too good moves Rg7 or Qg6 or Nd5 and he choose bad ;)
mmck(1768) whispers: bxg5 h6 seems fine 20...hxg5 (1:47) 21.h6 (0:05)
mmck(1768) whispers: all he has is Rxf6
ktmare(1830) whispers: this looks resignful
mmck(1768) whispers: ya resign time 21...g6 (2:41)
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes, aneirin was right in the beginning: black gave his good dark-squared B for nothing --- he really had to play h6 after e5 :) 22.Qxg6+ (0:38) Kh8 (0:03)
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: qg7 works
Aneirin(1854) whispers: I'm looking at Qg7+ Rxg7 hxg7+ 23.Qg7+ (1:33) Rxg7 (0:03)
mmck(1768) whispers: rxg5 or Qxg5 is simple but ya Qg7 is good 24.hxg7+ (0:03) Kg8 (0:01) 25.gxf8=Q+ (0:12) Kxf8 (0:02) 26.Rxg5 (0:39)
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: how he miss 25 Rh8
pchesso(1738) whispers: yes
ktmare(1830) whispers: would have been much simpler but this is winning too
pchesso(1738) whispers: true. all winning here
ktmare(1830) whispers: mate 3 if black sacs his knight now
ktmare(1830) whispers: if not then mate in 2
mmck(1768) whispers: yup
ktmare(1830) whispers: good job ani !
pchesso(1738) whispers: is the french a bad opening after all? i lost so many games, and look at this game now, too
ktmare(1830) whispers: mikail tal once said that the french demands great accuracy from black
mmck(1768) whispers: he saved 38 minutes to find mate in 3 rather than 2 LOL I hate that
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: black 9 0-0 maybe bad in this game
pchesso(1738) whispers: yeah, and aidog told me i need a "special character" to play the french
ktmare(1830) whispers: steinitz said " i have never played the french which is the dullest of all the openings"
WilkBardzoZly(1967) whispers: oh he start think now but Ke8 not help Ke8 Rg7 robofriven resigns 1-0
