SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I don't feel like starting trading pieces 8.Bxd7+ (1:38)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I was thinking taking it with the knight
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: But I haven't decided yet which side to castle
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I think it'll be more exciting if I castle long
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: So Qxd7 shall be 8...Qxd7 (1:53) 9.h3 (0:42) Ng6 (1:12) 10.Qc4 (2:02)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Mmm, maybe I should go with a short castle...
Nitreb(1443) whispers: Looks rather equal so far 10...Be7 (3:56) 11.Ne2 (1:41)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Doesn't the e pawn fall now?
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Maybe not
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Missed that b5 Qd3 Nf4 is met with Bxf4
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Qb5 looks interesting
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Unless he decided to trade queens right away...
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Qb5 Qxc7 Nxe4 maybe?
Nitreb(1443) whispers: Castling was the best move I think
Nitreb(1443) whispers: Ne2 looks loses time 11...Qb5 (5:59) 12.Qxb5+ (1:31)

SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Now there's no need to castle, I believe 13...c6 (0:39) 14.dxc6 (1:31) bxc6 (0:04)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: If Nf5 didn't targeted g7, I would respond with Kd7 15.Be3 (1:16)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Or maybe I could trade that pawn for the e one...
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: But seems he didn't went with Nf5... 15...O-O (3:30)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I find it funny how the board looks like

SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I believe pushing his knight will help me develop 23...Bd8 (0:53)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: That knight looks almost trapped now 24.f4 (1:28)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Didn't understood this move
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I can play f6 whenever I want
bigwienke(1948) whispers: It is to play Nxe5 after Ra7 I guess
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Playing exf4 looks fine with me
bigwienke(1948) whispers: But after ex the knight still looks trapped 24...exf4 (2:33) 25.Nxd4 (1:10) Ra7 (0:33)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I think this will be finally my first victory :)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Ne5 looks best for him, as I give a pawn for his knight
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Though I can later pin the other knight 26.Nxb5 (6:28) Rxd7 (0:32) 27.Rad1 (0:04) Bb6+ (0:20) 28.Kh1 (0:16) Rcd8 (0:16)

SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: I believe he'll get into a zugzswang sooner or later :) 41.b4 (0:34) Bb6 (0:17)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Thinking on sacrifying the g & f pawns in order to promote the h one 42.b5+ (0:55)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Though that takes a bit of time I think I'll do it eventually
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: :)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Seems he's not good in endings I would say 42...Kd6 (0:26) 43.Kb4 (0:35) g5 (0:09) 44.c4 (0:02)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Mmm, I was going to push the pawns, but Bd4 looks strong
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Good thing I have tons of time & I'll use it :) 44...f6 (1:59)
SamuraiGoroh(1677) whispers: Avoids annoying check
