1.e4 (0:00)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: I'm expecting game to start 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. Bb5+ Nc6 4. 0-0 Bd7 5. c3 Nf6 and then unsure as game diverges from 5... a6 his opponents used 1...c5 (0:00) 2.Nf3 (0:05) d6 (0:02) 3.Bb5+ (0:28)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: 3. Bb5 was used in blitz games so he might go for 3. d4 too although only saw that in 1 game a while ago 3...Nc6 (0:03) 4.c3 (0:13) Nf6 (0:34)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: It's an different move order than usual. Maybe he hoped it would transpose 5.d3 (1:57) Bd7 (2:24)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: I guess white is a tempi down on most lines as d3-d4 will lose a move so I should be ok 6.O-O (0:42) e6 (0:41) 7.Re1 (0:48) Be7 (0:11) 8.d4 (0:11) cxd4 (0:52) 9.cxd4 (0:04) a6 (0:04)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: although I should have probably played 6... a6 so my handling wasn't perfect either 10.Ba4 (2:56) b5 (1:22) 11.Bb3 (1:32) O-O (0:20) 12.e5 (2:24) Ne8 (0:36) 13.exd6 (2:28)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: I guess he'll play d5 next move, trade pawns and hope slightly misplaced pieces counter his lack of development 13...Nxd6 (1:38) 14.d5 (0:48) exd5 (0:20)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: plan is Rac8 and then Nb4 and I think black's development is fixed 15.Nc3 (1:38)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: I think d4 must be worth a try with line 15... d4 16. Nxd4 Nxd4 17. Qxd4 Nf5 gaining tempi 15...d4 (2:44) 16.Nxd4 (1:23) Nxd4 (0:00) 17.Qxd4 (0:04) Nf5 (0:08) 18.Qe4 (0:41)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: Bf6 was original plan but now I think Bc5 might well be better 18...Bc5 (1:45)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: I might also play Rfe8 simplifying although ideasof Qb6 and Bc6 are also nice
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: Nd4 is also an option 19.Bd2 (6:14)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: Now Qb6 must be very strong as it gains a tempi hitting f2 and capture is with check so something like 19... Qb6 20. Nd5 Bxf2+ 21. Kf/h1 Qd4 simplifies a pawn up 19...Qb6 (1:50) 20.Qf4 (0:39)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: queen chasing with Bd6 could be tempting but trade with Nd5 is probably equal at best
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: 20... Bd6 21. Nd5 Bxf4 22. Nxb6 Bxd2 23. Nd7 is probably equal
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: although Rfd8 might win a piece 20...Bd6 (5:22) 21.Be3 (4:15)
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: looks like it could end up as opposite square bishop endgame
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: e.g. 21... Nxe3 22. Qxe3 Bc5 23. Qf4 Bc6 24. Nd5 Bxd5 25. Bxd5 Rad8
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: that should be drawn I guess. Well c3 sicilians are drawish 21...Nxe3 (4:01) 22.Qxe3 (0:19) Bc5 (0:03) 23.Qf4 (1:08) Bc6 (0:12) 24.Bd5 (1:07) JoshPruett offers a draw.
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: in answer to 24.Nd5 I think Qb7 was maybe stronger. Here I think it doesn't change much and Rad8 is better
LJMon(1848) whispers: Qb7 was real good
KRMCHESS(2011) whispers: Considering that pawn structure is symmetrical and I'm losing bishop pair I guess draw is fine since I can't see much KRMCHESS accepts the draw request. Game drawn by mutual agreement 1/2-1/2
