herrahuu(1718) whispers: c5 for black would be critical?
herrahuu(1718) whispers: is that weakening long diagonal? }
20.Qe1 {(3:07)
herrahuu(1718) whispers: oh my
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: huh? didn't understood that move at all
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: he's wasting moves going for Bd2 next
herrahuu(1718) whispers: 20 moves and 20 seconds extra time to spend for rest of the moves
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: his pieces can't move that freely... }
20...Rd7 {(2:46)} 21.Bd1 {(5:02)
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: I think I don't follow what's he's trying to do. I though he would push either the f pawn or the d one and get some space, but it seems not
Scodman(2098) whispers: what a mess, guys
blore(1931) whispers: woof
mcstorytaller(1849) whispers: hi blore
blore(1931) whispers: hi mcstorytaller
Scodman(2098) whispers: blore woofs here too? :D
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: Is that a poisoned pawn or a free one?!
kapadapa(1925) whispers: hi kapadapa
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: I'll check in a moment
Scodman(2098) whispers: I fear it's a free one
Paolone(1964) whispers: I fear it was a free pawn :(
Scodman(2098) whispers: me and my mate Paoo
Paolone(1964) whispers: yup
Scodman(2098) whispers: Paolone
Scodman(2098) whispers: we are mentally connected
mcstorytaller(1849) whispers: hi Paolone
Paolone(1964) whispers: twins, of course ;)
Paolone(1964) whispers: hi mc
kapadapa(1925) whispers: ... Rxd3 Bc2 Qxc3 Bxd3 Qxd3 Rd1 (otherwise Bxc4 wins f1) ... Qxc4 collects all the pawns
Scodman(2098) whispers: after a "curious" opening, Giampy is trying to deteriorate even more his own position :(
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: he can aim for h7, but there's no harm in that, at least not now
herrahuu(1718) whispers: i doubt it's his intention
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: It looks safe to take & I can just retreat instead of getting greedy with Rxc3 next
mcstorytaller(1849) whispers: d4 was better i think
Scodman(2098) whispers: many moves were better than Bd1, I would say
mcstorytaller(1849) whispers: but i wouldn't say wht have to lose even if in trouble for a moment }
21...Rxd3 {(5:37)
herrahuu(1718) whispers: d3 is too much
mcstorytaller(1849) whispers: i was 3 pawns down last game and won
Paolone(1964) whispers: I fear that now another pawn will fall
mcstorytaller(1849) whispers: hi herrahuu
Paolone(1964) whispers: Bd2 Rad8
Paolone(1964) whispers: it's better Be2
Paolone(1964) whispers: but that bad idea that Bd1
Paolone(1964) whispers: or Bc2
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: Rxc3 Bd2 Bb4 may work, right?
Scodman(2098) whispers: Be2, at least c4 is more protected
Paolone(1964) whispers: after be2?
Scodman(2098) whispers: Shall we even give Samurai the moves? :D
Paolone(1964) whispers: yes then black recovers the quality
Paolone(1964) whispers: ah, ok, I was talking with him, I'm an idiot, it's official
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: I think it may not work }
22.Bb3 {(6:09)
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: But I don't have to worry about it now
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: as white could had Bc2 and then Qe4 threatening mate
Scodman(2098) whispers: Neither Bc2 nor Be2
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: Another free pawn I guess
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: He's being generous :)
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: *been
Scodman(2098) whispers: grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Paolone(1964) whispers: I hope that giampy will not read these comments, later }

Paolone(1964) whispers: alla speranindio
kapadapa(1925) whispers: is a7 hanging?
Paolone(1964) whispers: ora Bxa7? }
26.Bc2 {(0:47)
Scodman(2098) whispers: and now white is totally pinned
Scodman(2098) whispers: una nuova
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: I thought he would grab the a pawn, but seems not
Scodman(2098) whispers: ma mal riuscita
Paolone(1964) whispers: it was possible take a7, later
Paolone(1964) whispers: now just Red7 or then Bax7 Ra8
LightKnight(1844) whispers: the first 4 moves make no sense to me
Scodman(2098) whispers: se persi o Light passa all'italiano, e' segno che la situazione e' grave
Scodman(2098) whispers: persino*
Scodman(2098) whispers: for me too
herrahuu(1718) whispers: aha. so now we go italian :(
herrahuu(1718) whispers: i guess it's free world :D
Scodman(2098) whispers: when we are crazy with rage we go to Italian
Paolone(1964) whispers: no, it has been only a moment of weakness
herrahuu(1718) whispers: it's not really anything away from anybody
Scodman(2098) whispers: 'cos we can't express our bad feelings in English :D
herrahuu(1718) whispers: sorry
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: If there was no f pawn, then Rxe3 would had worked nicely
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: Well, maybe even then not
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: because of the back-rank check XD
Scodman(2098) whispers: no, are you joking? forgive us, instead }
26...Ra3 {(3:10)
herrahuu(1718) whispers: i hate such moralities such as don't speak your mother tongue
herrahuu(1718) whispers: moment of weakness :( }
27.Bb3 {(0:49)
Paolone(1964) whispers: nice move
Paolone(1964) whispers: for some time rook is outside
Paolone(1964) whispers: but perhaps just b5
Scodman(2098) whispers: it was forced
Scodman(2098) whispers: if he didn't want to give also a2 pawn
kapadapa(1925) whispers: ... c5 and Ra6 should work
Paolone(1964) whispers: after Rxa2 there was Bxh7+
Scodman(2098) whispers: but also bishop is locked
Scodman(2098) whispers: and... my battery is low already
Paolone(1964) whispers: do you work at batteries?
SamuraiGoroh(1851) whispers: Taking about back-rank, he has problems, so I can lure him with b5 trying to force that rook away from the back row...
Paolone(1964) whispers: why don't you use the pc?
Scodman(2098) whispers: I brought my pc downstairs to watch the game while dining :( }
27...b5 {(2:19)
Paolone(1964) whispers: uhm
Paolone(1964) whispers: now b5 as foreseen
Scodman(2098) whispers: I hoped it would have lasted more
Scodman(2098) whispers: end of my life here
Scodman(2098) whispers: I have to abandon you, let's see you after, if the game will still be ongoing...

samuraigoroh (2015-08-25): Is not like I didn't knew I could win, but what was the fastest approach to go, hence why I didn't wanted to push the b pawn.
