bigwienke(1887) whispers: Gorgonian: something like this 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 exd4 4. Bc4 Be7 5. c3 Na5 6. Be2 dxc3 7. Nxc3 d6 8. O-O Nf6 9. Qa4+ Nc6 10. e5 10.e5 (0:05)
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: I am impressed
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: obviously all prep
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: according to my research this will be out of his book 10...Ng4 (1:26)
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: yow
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: well one of the ideas behind this opening is getting some pressure on the d-file, so Rd1 could happen now 11.Rd1 (5:47)
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: i had not considered Ng4 as an option, so that takes me out of my prep
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: i anticipate o-o here and i will probably play Bf4 11...O-O (0:49) 12.Bf4 (0:54) Bd7 (0:48)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: exd6 is regaining the pawn I ugess
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: go gorg go!
mindlin(1940) whispers: hey guys, last game of the day?
bigwienke(1887) whispers: seems that way
mindlin(1940) whispers: exd6 now? or move the queen? 13.exd6 (2:37) cxd6 (0:26)
mindlin(1940) whispers: i like Bxd6
Tharderer(1692) whispers: go gorgonian
Tharderer(1692) whispers: we have to win this game
mindlin(1940) whispers: win to tie? 14.Bxd6 (2:46) Bxd6 (0:00)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Well his position seems pretty good right now 15.Rxd6 (0:37)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: The knight on g4 looks like it could be a little loose if black isn't careful
mindlin(1940) whispers: agree like Be6 will fail to Rxe6 in future
Tharderer(1692) whispers: to win the match gorgonian must win this game
Tharderer(1692) whispers: he has been a great third board so far
mindlin(1940) whispers: oh win to win and tie to tie 15...Qe7 (3:17)
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: exciting
Tharderer(1692) whispers: tie and we could still win if we won our last two games but i find that unlikely
mindlin(1940) whispers: Rad1 and the pressure is on
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Rad1 and black can't protect Bd7 with a rook
mindlin(1940) whispers: but i guess he can play Be6 now with Q on e7
Tharderer(1692) whispers: we also need the flaming pheonix fighters tail to lose their match which is looking like more of a possibility since minhaz got upset
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: sorry why cant he protect with the rook? 16.Rad1 (2:56)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: because of rd7
mindlin(1940) whispers: Rad1 Rad8 Rxd7 Rxd7 Qxg4
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Be6 maybe also fails to Rxe6 Qxe6 and Ng5
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: oh forgot all about g$!
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Nf6 seems just about forced I guess.
bigwienke(1887) whispers: at least it seems best to consolidate a bit since its not doing much over there 16...Nf6 (2:52)
mindlin(1940) whispers: i have trouble making progress in these positions, i tend to play a move like h3 here
bigwienke(1887) whispers: yeah, position looks nice, but I'm not sure waht a constructive plan is
Tharderer(1692) whispers: yes very tough to make progress
Twikki(2118) whispers: Ne4 to break things open a little
Tharderer(1692) whispers: i would be tempted to try qh4 and go for cheap checkmates
ehvmc(1669) whispers: :)
mindlin(1940) whispers: yeah i thought of Qh4 i think it's a good candidate 17.Bb5 (5:00)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: actually looks like Qh4 is carrying threat again of Rxd7
mindlin(1940) whispers: i thought about this move also but what on a6?
Tharderer(1692) whispers: qh4 carries quite a few threats like bd3 and rf6
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: doesnt this relieve blacks tension after a6?
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: or loses a tempo
bigwienke(1887) whispers: well a6 maybe White can still play Qh4 and then Ba4 17...a6 (2:12)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: not that it is good, just possible I think
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: only BxN will bring imbalance
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: else imho, white s advantage just optically looking good
Tharderer(1692) whispers: dont take c gorgo
Tharderer(1692) whispers: bd3
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: symmetrical pawn structure gives this game a boring character
Tharderer(1692) whispers: bd3 and qh4
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: and Rxf6 + Qxh7 mate
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: can black please move too?! :p
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: oh funkmaus
Tharderer(1692) whispers: yes lots of hoping and wishing in my lines
Twikki(2118) whispers: Ne5 kind of puts a cramp in the Bd3 idea 18.Bxc6 (2:27) Bxc6 (0:00) 19.Qf4 (0:25)
Twikki(2118) whispers: think this game is just doomed to be boring
mindlin(1940) whispers: yeah i'm afraid so
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: Gorgo prepared that up to 10.e5 - and I expected it to be more exciting
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: black has defended nicely
mindlin(1940) whispers: i like black now i think
Tharderer(1692) whispers: yes black is a little better now
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: this sucks. im bad at chess and i should feel bad
mindlin(1940) whispers: Bc6 is nice
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Well Nd4 can take care of that probably
Tharderer(1692) whispers: there is the trick re1 qc7????? rf6:)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: of course we have to wait for blacks move:(
mindlin(1940) whispers: i'm expecting Rd8
Tharderer(1692) whispers: do not get depressed gorgonian 19...Rfe8 (6:28)
Twikki(2118) whispers: h3
bigwienke(1887) whispers: well Nd4 is out :)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: please dont fall for a back rank mate 20.h3 (4:47) h6 (1:20)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Ok, I like Nd4 now that it's not mate
Tharderer(1692) whispers: re1 force qf8
Tharderer(1692) whispers: hmm how does that help
Twikki(2118) whispers: Nd4-f5 makes some sense
Tharderer(1692) whispers: yes i agree i was directing my last comment to my re1 idea 21.Re1 (3:41)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: hmm he is going for my tricks that cant be good
bigwienke(1887) whispers: looks like after Qf8 you may just have to play Rd1 anyway 21...Qc7 (1:18)
iwulu(2251) whispers: oops
Twikki(2118) whispers: that's ok
Tharderer(1692) whispers: yess
bigwienke(1887) whispers: haha Tharderer called it
Twikki(2118) whispers: Rf6 Re1+ Ne1 Qe7
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: ok doesnt Rxf6 win immediately?
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: blunder afaik
iwulu(2251) whispers: Rf6
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: thanks Twikki
bigwienke(1887) whispers: oh twikki that's mean haha
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: you answered my question before I typed
iwulu(2251) whispers: ahh
bigwienke(1887) whispers: counter trick
Tharderer(1692) whispers: hmm maybe twikki is right
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: cool one 22.Rxf6 (1:17)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: ah and Rxe8 first just Nxe8
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: just told my wife "Qc7 would be a delightful blunder: 22...Rxe1+ (1:00) 23.Nxe1 (0:06) Qe7 (0:12)
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: hmm
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Ok, I wonder if ehmvc saw that when he played Qc7 or lucked out
bigwienke(1887) whispers: he did play those pretty quickly so maybe he had it calculated
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: missed this
ehvmc(1669) whispers: what am i missing? exchange up?
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: nah Rd6
bigwienke(1887) whispers: yeah I don't see nay exchange
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: Rxc6 doesnt work becaues of QxN - just a trade
Tharderer(1692) whispers: wow this is a devastating turn of events
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: looks dead even still to me
ehvmc(1669) whispers: lol..ok ..not...
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: exchange down I mean
Tharderer(1692) whispers: i guess no playoffs for us
ehvmc(1669) whispers: late night for me.. 24.Rd6 (2:06) Qxe1+ (0:05) 25.Kh2 (0:02)
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: why tharderer on a draw you just need to win 2 games
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: Gorgo isnt losing
bigwienke(1887) whispers: <2000 anyway games are not decided until resignation or agreed draw
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: oh well. too tired for chess. this is late for me.
Twikki(2118) whispers: got exciting for a minute, now back to boring :P
bigwienke(1887) whispers: It's late for them both so I guess that makes it fair :)
iwulu(2251) whispers: lol 25...Re8 (1:44)
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: hehe late for both 26.Rd1 (1:37)
ehvmc(1669) whispers: gotta schedule these at better hours
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: booo this is interesting how both master to complain - having made an agreement when to play >) 26...Qe6 (1:04)
ehvmc(1669) whispers: or have ready supply of coffee 27.f3 (0:49) Gorgonian offers a draw.
bigwienke(1887) whispers: well they good go Rd6 Qe1 Re1 Qd6 Rd6 = if they want
bigwienke(1887) whispers: ok I mixed up some es and ds in that
bigwienke(1887) whispers: but irrelevant now anyhow
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: :) we still got ya ehvmc declines the draw request. 27...g5 (1:08)
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: draw offer pending
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: WOW
Funkmaus(2200) whispers: Twikki, wake up :p
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: well
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: this gives some hope to the game 28.Qd6 (1:12)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Well Qd6 Qxd6 Rxd6 Kg7 still looks pretty =
iwulu(2251) whispers: what is the match situation? Does either side NEED a win here?
bigwienke(1887) whispers: blacks side has one the only game so far
Tharderer(1692) whispers: gorgos side needs a win
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: i was thinking along lines of qg3 and trying to attack
iwulu(2251) whispers: oh, ok, thanks!
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Boris Qg3 and black can play Qe5 anyway to force Q exchange if there was danger
Tharderer(1692) whispers: or i will have to win against superlaser which should be easy not 28...Kg7 (2:38)
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: surprised he declined. don't think black has much advantage here. id probably prefer black, but not by enough to win 29.Qxe6 (0:49) Rxe6 (0:00) 30.Kg3 (0:04)
ehvmc(1669) whispers: oh well.its a draw after that terrible opening 30...f5 (0:30) 31.Kf2 (0:30) f4 (0:10)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: ne4 32.Ne2 (0:59)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: good thing he didnt take my advice:) 32...Kf6 (0:40)
mindlin(1940) whispers: i'd go with Rd8
Tharderer(1692) whispers: h4 33.h4 (1:31)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: oh no he is doing my moves again
Tharderer(1692) whispers: that didnt work out so well last time 33...Bb5 (0:41)
mindlin(1940) whispers: Nc3 34.Nc3 (0:59)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: another chance for repetition
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: need to slow down but tired :(
mindlin(1940) whispers: not much to calculate anymore although time always helps with moves
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: so gh Rd4 Kf5 Rb4 Bc6 Ne2 i think 34...Bc6 (4:42)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: if gh then probably just NxB I would think
bigwienke(1887) whispers: ah, too slow as always 35.Rd8 (1:17) gxh4 (0:17)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: now white is losing i think 36.Ne2 (0:41)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: I don't believe that
Twikki(2118) whispers: nah, still dead even
Tharderer(1692) whispers: re3 and h3
bigwienke(1887) whispers: well Re3 Nxf4
Twikki(2118) whispers: f4 is loose
Tharderer(1692) whispers: of course you proctect f4 first
mindlin(1940) whispers: right like Kg5 Rg8
Tharderer(1692) whispers: i am just saying that looks strong
mindlin(1940) whispers: can't really protect f4 from rook and knight
Tharderer(1692) whispers: ok that saves white whew that is a relief
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: still think this seems like a draw
mindlin(1940) whispers: gxh4 a mistake imo
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: it def leads to a faster draw 36...Kg5 (4:39)
mindlin(1940) whispers: maybe h3 was good? 37.Rg8+ (0:35)
mindlin(1940) whispers: h3 gxh3 and Re3?
Twikki(2118) whispers: Kh5 :P
bigwienke(1887) whispers: well if he doesn't see the mate he will see the fork
mindlin(1940) whispers: lol 37...Rg6 (1:31) 38.Rxg6+ (0:03) Kxg6 (0:00) 39.Nxf4+ (0:02)
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: what
bigwienke(1887) whispers: woah 39...Kf5 (0:07)
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: gorg you did it
Twikki(2118) whispers: still dead even
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: really?
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: even with the doubled h?
bigwienke(1887) whispers: I would have guessed slight advantage to white
ehvmc(1669) whispers: noone can mess up a drawn position like i can
Twikki(2118) whispers: white may have practical chances, but it should still be a draw
ehvmc(1669) whispers: :(
bigwienke(1887) whispers: I ugess active king and bihsop over knight give compensation
bigwienke(1887) whispers: just seems a bit strange black would even go for this 40.Nd3 (2:47) Bb5 (0:29) 41.Nc5 (0:21)
Twikki(2118) whispers: the advanced king means a lot here
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Ke3 would have lost
bigwienke(1887) whispers: maybe
bigwienke(1887) whispers: :)
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: haha why 41...b6 (0:37) 42.Ne4 (0:03) Bc6 (0:04)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: just pawn endgame
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: i thought white needs ke3
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Kf4-g3 and black will Q first I think. But I didn't count
bigwienke(1887) whispers: now I like Ke3 43.Ke3 (1:58)
Twikki(2118) whispers: white's main problem is that he can't push f4 until he gets rid of the h4 pawn because of the weakness of g2
bigwienke(1887) whispers: yeah just Ke5 even and its hard to see how either side makes any progress
Twikki(2118) whispers: the knight can't really defend g2 because of Bxg2 shots if the king gets too far away
Twikki(2118) whispers: so I'm guessing it's gonna be a draw unless someone drops a piece ;) 43...a5 (4:03)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Nd6 Ke5 Nc1 b5 Na7 Bd7 would be ugly for white 44.Nd6+ (1:18)
mindlin(1940) whispers: Nc4 something?
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Nc4 makes way more sense
bigwienke(1887) whispers: haha
mindlin(1940) whispers: Bd5 possible though right?
bigwienke(1887) whispers: ehvmc may be under the impression his position is worse than it is. Sometiems that makes it worse
bigwienke(1887) whispers: maybe Bd5 just b3 and the threat is still there?
Twikki(2118) whispers: Ke6 Nc4 Bd5 b3 a4 seems fine 44...Ke6 (1:45)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: ah knight can't get back after Nxb6 axb3 Nxc4 bxa2
bigwienke(1887) whispers: nice 45.Nc4 (1:04) Bd5 (0:07) 46.Nxb6 (0:03) Bxa2 (0:02) 47.Kf4 (0:02)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: knight is semi trapped
bigwienke(1887) whispers: after Bb3
bigwienke(1887) whispers: but mabye white can just sac it anyway
ahorsE(1650) whispers: go gorgo
Twikki(2118) whispers: king is cut off after Kd6 & Be6
Tharderer(1692) whispers: go gorgo
Tharderer(1692) whispers: thank you for giving it your best
ahorsE(1650) whispers: how is it even semitrapped? na4-c3
bigwienke(1887) whispers: after Bb3 :) 47...Kd6 (3:17)
ahorsE(1650) whispers: oh it's ehvmc's move
ahorsE(1650) whispers: hurray
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: alright well its too late for me now
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: this has been quite a long game
Twikki(2118) whispers: I think black has better swindling chances
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: have a good night folks
BorisFromRussia(1624) whispers: and good luck with the rest of it gorg
Twikki(2118) whispers: with the knight on the qside black may get in Bxf3 if white tries for too much 48.Kg4 (4:20) Kc5 (0:05) 49.Na4+ (0:19) Kb4 (0:04) 50.Nc3 (0:37) Kb3 (0:05) 51.Nxa2 (0:24) Kxa2 (0:06)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: white wins I think
Twikki(2118) whispers: feh white wins this
bigwienke(1887) whispers: Becuase of the check on h8 52.f4 (0:37) Kxb2 (0:02)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: I think 53.f5 (0:08) a4 (0:05)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: yesssss 54.f6 (0:09) a3 (0:00)
Gorgonian(1773) whispers: :)
bigwienke(1887) whispers: haha
Tharderer(1692) whispers: go gorgo 55.f7 (0:05) a2 (0:01)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: omg 56.f8=Q (0:04) a1=Q (0:03) 57.Qh8+ (0:02) Kb1 (0:02)
Tharderer(1692) whispers: this is great 58.Qxa1+ (0:03) Kxa1 (0:00) 59.Kxh4 (0:01) ehvmc resigns 1-0
