1.e4 {(0:00)} e5 {(0:00)SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Didn't had time to prepare an opening, so lets see how it goes }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Ng5 seems tempting, but this is no blitz game SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Ng5 d5 exd5 Nxd5 d3 maybe? }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Isn't d5 a book move? Either way, that's the only way I see for him to not give up a pawn for free }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Guess Nc3 is another option (other than d3) SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Mmm, does Nxf7 wins a pawn?! SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: nah, he has Nf6 SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Qf3 looks tempting SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: not sure if I can get anything out of it though }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Nd8 was too odd, not sure how else he would had gotten out of this w/o material loss though (to lazy to calculate what won't happen already :P) }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: I can play Re1 and have an intermesso if he decides to trade queens, but maybe there's something better here }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: I was imagining what if you name yourself "SpanishInquisition" and each time your rival takes time to move, you say: "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition" XD }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: There's not much to talk about right now. I decided to trade development for a pawn & think it was worth it. I don't particulary like knight, but that can change }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Now Ne5 will be a strong place for my knight }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: huh? SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: that just loses another pawn SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Guess if I keep the bishop, then it'll be easier to force him trade his & have an easy endgame SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: my e pawn is protected too, so Re8 doesn't recuperate the pawn back }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: And now I'll be able to trade the bishop with Bf5 next TragicPrinceFer(1710) whispers: 111 Pretty much this endgame is a win for White }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: heh, this makes it even easier me for me to trade }TragicPrinceFer(1710) whispers: 111 It's official. White owns the full board. }SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: He shouldn't had disconnected his rooks, I was expecting to give up a pawn but now I have 3 SamuraiGoroh(1730) whispers: Guess 4 with Rh7+ }
samuraigoroh (2017-05-20): Forgot the knight was pinned so I was indeed able to play 7. Nxf7 Lastly I'm unable to remember simple stuff like that, but luckily haven't been punished with that (although last game I horribly calculated the board and my rival wasn't scared of empty threats, so he did beat me :P)
joshuar (2017-05-20): GG. Reviewing the game now I was surprised to see you avoid The Fried Liver setup with Nxf7, but that's only because it's one of my favorites.
