SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Hope this doesn't turn like the game I also played black and draw

SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: f6 doesn't seem that bad at first sigh until you realize that his LSB can attack the a2-g8 diagonal 8...b5 (3:59) 9.Bb3 (0:15) Na5 (0:48) 10.O-O (1:44) Nxb3 (0:30) 11.axb3 (0:47) Bc8 (0:35)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I'm not worried about not castling yet
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I'm more worried that I need to position my pieces, so I'm planning to have my LSB in the a8-h1 diagonal
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I wanted to play eventually g6 and then Bg7, hence why I'm not playing f6
ajoatamon(2076) whispers: Black is playing with fire here. Nd5 is strong. 12.Re1 (2:42)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Guess I'll have to play f6 to avoid having the center opened 12...f6 (3:15) 13.Bh4 (1:35) Ng6 (1:48)
ajoatamon(2076) whispers: C'mon, ici. Find Qh5 14.Nf5 (4:53)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Kf7 seems interesting enough to consider
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: because I remove the pin and threaten to capture the defender piece and be a piece up
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Of course white could respond with Qh5 and woud be a bit annoying
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: On the other hand, if I simple play Nxh4, I'll have pair of bishops for pair of knights

SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I dont see why I shouldn't take with pawn
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: But maybe I'm missing something
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Oh yea, he has Qd5+
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Still my knight is attacking his bishop, so is fine to trade rook + pawn per minor pieces 18...gxf6 (1:57) 19.Bxf6 (1:05)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Odd 19...Qxf6 (0:14) 20.Qd5+ (0:02) Be6 (0:02)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: And he was taking his time before :( 21.Qc6 (2:27)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Now I can be aggressive and even open his pawn structure
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Maybe I should play first Ne5 to relocate knight before Qxf2+
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Nah, I should go in while I can
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I don't mind my queenside pawns falling if I can potentially mate him 21...Qxf2+ (3:20) 22.Kh1 (0:04)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Qb6 stops letting my pawns fall
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: but maybe I can still go agressive here

SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: It's a bit funny how both kings are in a corner
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Although mine is more opened, so I have to be more careful, despite being up in material 31.Qd2 (4:30)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I could play Bxb3, but Qxe4 seems better I think
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I'll go safe with Bxb3
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I know I could have Qxe4 and then Bxh3 pin
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: but I should worry about trading queens too somehow
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Actually Qxe4 allows me to play Qd5 if he goes with Re1 31...Qxe4 (4:57) 32.Re1 (0:29) Qd5 (0:03) 33.Qe3 (2:41)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Bxh3 looks tempting

pingupenguin(1837) whispers: Nf4 and its over ?
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Only f6 is not protected, but he can't immediately jump to it
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Mmm, I think moving the knight to e5 is a bit better 33...Ne5 (2:35) 34.Re2 (1:08)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: I could go with Bh3 here
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: because of a deviation
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: if Qxh3 I have Qd1+ 34...Bxh3 (1:14) 35.Qf2 (1:18)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Wonder if there is a forced mate here
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Maybe Ng4 here?
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: duh, I can just play Qxg2 and simplify
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: no need to break my head
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: seems like a gg
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Although Bxg2+ seems a better move 35...Bxg2+ (2:47)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Ng4 fork maybe? 36.Kg1 (1:44)
SamuraiGoroh(1778) whispers: Mmm, well discovery attack it'll be 36...Bh3+ (0:23)
