1.e4 (0:00)
tahsine(2194) whispers: will that be another closed sicilian ?
tahsine(2194) whispers: yet a grand prix attack ?!
tahsine(2194) whispers: let us see :) 1...c5 (0:00)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Go Axel! 2.Nc3 (0:10)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Go Vikings!
axeltiger(2161) whispers: let's go for this one again
LNO(1895) whispers: !!
Mayors(1750) whispers: go tahsine i hope you do your best 2...Nc6 (0:30)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Carlsen!
Mayors(1750) whispers: nakamura!!!
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I haven't had a great deal of time to transition back to the open sicilian this semester, so I'm sticking to this for now 3.f4 (0:11)
tahsine(2194) whispers: YES :)
tahsine(2194) whispers: exactly like the previous match !
lambertdw(1515) whispers: axeltiger!
tahsine(2194) whispers: did he prepare a trick for me ?
LNO(1895) whispers: ok they have prepped... ofc 3...g6 (0:45) 4.Nf3 (0:03) Bg7 (0:05)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: dragon
LNO(1895) whispers: but do they really think that the opponent didnt? 5.Bb5 (0:03)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I don't mind not playing the sharpest possible lines against the sicilian
LNO(1895) whispers: :)
tahsine(2194) whispers: well, aren't we repeating ourselves ?
axeltiger(2161) whispers: this is enough to get a playable position basically every time 5...Nd4 (0:31) 6.O-O (0:03) Nxb5 (0:09)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: of course, this won't be a repeat of our last game, where I just played like a patzer 7.Nxb5 (0:19)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: ...d5 is the mainline here
LNO(1895) whispers: GO MM GO!!!!!!!!!!!
axeltiger(2161) whispers: but other moves are playable as well
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Go Axel!
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Go Vikings!
Mayors(1750) whispers: Go tahsine bring us glory:D
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Mayors!
Mayors(1750) whispers: nakamura!!
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: who You root for? 7...d6 (1:42) 8.d3 (0:04)
Mayors(1750) whispers: what you think
Mayors(1750) whispers: tahsine is in my team:D
axeltiger(2161) whispers: d6 is a fine alternative
Mayors(1750) whispers: and im captain of marines:p 8...a6 (0:56) 9.Nc3 (0:03)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: still following our last game in this line
lambertdw(1515) whispers: in which you played like a patzer. better choose different moves. 9...Nf6 (0:51) 10.Qe1 (0:04) O-O (0:07)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: ok, so here we reach the interesting part
axeltiger(2161) whispers: last time I played Rb1? here
axeltiger(2161) whispers: that's just silly
axeltiger(2161) whispers: white has two good tries here
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Qh4 and f5
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I think f5 is slightly more dangerous to face unprepared
axeltiger(2161) whispers: but Qh4 is venomous as well
LNO(1895) whispers: dont worry @lambertdw axel isnt repeating a losing line
axeltiger(2161) whispers: often the lines transpose
lambertdw(1515) whispers: yeah he seems to have been white last time. 11.f5 (2:25)
lambertdw(1515) whispers: um.he's white this time as well.
axeltiger(2161) whispers: let's go for the stupid-looking move
axeltiger(2161) whispers: let's say I was inspired by Aronian's play of late
tahsine(2194) whispers: I don't remember he played that in our previous match !
LNO(1895) whispers: :)
LNO(1895) whispers: well tashine you won easily the last time... what to expect? :)
tahsine(2194) whispers: bad preparation :(
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I think gxf5 is the best move here
ascoliloko(1863) whispers: hi all
LNO(1895) whispers: hi Vitalii!
tahsine(2194) whispers: He is fighting me with my own weapon !
tahsine(2194) whispers: I'd have LOVED to play f5 in this position
tahsine(2194) whispers: gxf5 looks playable, at least no direct danger !
axeltiger(2161) whispers: ....e6 isn't enough to equalize
tahsine(2194) whispers: but if I were playing white, I'd be more than happy if black plays gxf5
axeltiger(2161) whispers: then we transpose to the Qh4 line, with a slight edge for white
tahsine(2194) whispers: this is getting complicated !!
LNO(1895) whispers: really nice to see the whispers from the players now 11...b5 (8:27)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: let's see
tahsine(2194) whispers: call me chicken, but I'm facing a very strong player !
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I think this was one of the lines that didn't equalize
axeltiger(2161) whispers: doesn't mean it's easy though 12.Qh4 (2:03) b4 (2:30)
tahsine(2194) whispers: well, seems it will be a bloody game ! 13.Ne2 (0:59)
LNO(1895) whispers: whites pieces is moving towards the K side...
axeltiger(2161) whispers: fortunately, I know the basic pattern of attack in this position
LNO(1895) whispers: fortunately? you have looked at it especially I think! :) 13...e5 (4:16)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: ok, so let's see here
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Ng3 looks very tempting
LNO(1895) whispers: I like Bg5
LNO(1895) whispers: tie him up instead
LNO(1895) whispers: and besides Bg5 develops!
LNO(1895) whispers: we shall not forget Morphy 14.Ng3 (7:14)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: on ...Nd7 I think I'll just plonk the knight on g5 and see how he responds 14...Bd7 (1:55)
LNO(1895) whispers: Im in favor of Bg5
LNO(1895) whispers: still
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Ng5 feels like the right move here
axeltiger(2161) whispers: just to provoke further weaknesses
LNO(1895) whispers: axel and I disagees obviously
LNO(1895) whispers: but Ng5 looks good also
LNO(1895) whispers: but i am a fan of development
LNO(1895) whispers: Ng5 Nh5 what is that? can someone help me out?
LNO(1895) whispers: maybe f6 then
LNO(1895) whispers: no i am just talking a lot of rubbish
LNO(1895) whispers: but Bg5 i understand fully
LNO(1895) whispers: I think
LNO(1895) whispers: Hi schachbjm
schachbjm(2378) whispers: Bg5 and white is significantly better
LNO(1895) whispers: I thought so
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Bg5 paralyzes black almost completely
LNO(1895) whispers: that pin is so annoying for black
LNO(1895) whispers: yes
LNO(1895) whispers: i wanted it also the move before
LNO(1895) whispers: but axel is looking at Ng5
LNO(1895) whispers: he wrotwe
LNO(1895) whispers: *wrote
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Bg5-h3-Nh2-Ng4
LNO(1895) whispers: aha
axeltiger(2161) whispers: that's just devastating
LNO(1895) whispers: now he looks at Bg5 15.Bg5 (8:11)
LNO(1895) whispers: good
LNO(1895) whispers: oeisten to daddy! :)
LNO(1895) whispers: *listen
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: :)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Axel is good son, listen his dad
LNO(1895) whispers: well to be honest with my play recently I dont think anuone above 1000 should listen to me :)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: i listened to You and won a game
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Rf8 is also indirectly paralyzed, due to the threat of fxg6
lambertdw(1515) whispers: great, I'm not eligible to kibitz for MiloBot. 15...Rc8 (3:08)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: so don't be so harsh to Yourself Lars
LNO(1895) whispers: well thank you Marek, but it was your effort that won the game, not my advices
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: i wouldn't win it without Your help
LNO(1895) whispers: but its good to prepare and thus increase the knowledge of different openings, yes thats true... And you can bet that Axel did prepare for this game since he got beaten in their last encounter
LNO(1895) whispers: @schacbjm can white play Nd2 here and put even more pressure indirectly on f6?
LNO(1895) whispers: it stops all c4 buisness also
axeltiger(2161) whispers: allowing c4 seems unneccessary
LNO(1895) whispers: aha
axeltiger(2161) whispers: b3 stops it
LNO(1895) whispers: or Nd2
LNO(1895) whispers: :) 16.b3 (7:24)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: then I can play Rae1 to further discourage any black counterplay 16...a5 (3:49) 17.Rae1 (1:23)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: planning h3-Re2-Ref2
axeltiger(2161) whispers: then I can pick up some material
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Rae1 is mostly to prevent ...d5 from ever becoming a real freeing move
LNO(1895) whispers: it seems to me that black is in a strangehold
axeltiger(2161) whispers: from a positional perspective, this must be winning for white 17...a4 (5:31) 18.Re2 (0:25)
LNO(1895) whispers: this looks good 18...axb3 (1:17) 19.axb3 (0:03)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: black must play ...h6 at some point
tahsine(2194) whispers: his target is to play Rf2
tahsine(2194) whispers: gxf6 and the knight is lost 19...Ra8 (0:52) 20.h3 (0:12)
LNO(1895) whispers: not too fast axel, please
tahsine(2194) whispers: this is not my day for sure :(
axeltiger(2161) whispers: hard to stop Rf2 followed by fxg6 and Ne1
axeltiger(2161) whispers: not to mention, Nh2 is also super-annoying 20...Ra2 (2:40)
tahsine(2194) whispers: most likely I'll have to sac. the h pawn :(
LNO(1895) whispers: no need for a quick decision here 21.Ref2 (0:54) h6 (0:44)
LNO(1895) whispers: chess is a nerve wrecking game even to watch when you have a favorite player
axeltiger(2161) whispers: do I even have to bother with taking on h6?
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: right Lars
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: not such emotions in any else sport
Mayors(1750) whispers: right:(
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: even football doesn't have such emotions
LNO(1895) whispers: just take that bloody pawn axel!
Mayors(1750) whispers: right
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I should really just take the pawn and be happy 22.Bxh6 (3:27) Nh7 (0:16)
LNO(1895) whispers: dont worry, be happy
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I will most likely go two pawns up for basically nothing
LNO(1895) whispers: back to g5 with the B 23.Bxg7 (0:35)
LNO(1895) whispers: no
LNO(1895) whispers: i didnt like that at all 23...Qxh4 (0:39) 24.Nxh4 (0:03) Kxg7 (0:02)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: fxg
LNO(1895) whispers: I still didnt like it at all
LNO(1895) whispers: i didnt see a way for black if Bg5
tahsine(2194) whispers: I don't know what happened, but suddnely I feel I'm getting some oxygene back.
tahsine(2194) whispers: I was almost resigning the game !
Mayors(1750) whispers: is there any hope for my player tahsine? i hope so
Mayors(1750) whispers: did he came back from loosing position?
LNO(1895) whispers: it still bad but he got some chances now
LNO(1895) whispers: there is a problem on c2
tahsine(2194) whispers: he has one extra pawn, true. But it could have been quite worse !
Mayors(1750) whispers: ok good news, we won one of MKM player
axeltiger(2161) whispers: ok, so this was just sloppy
LNO(1895) whispers: yes indeed
Mayors(1750) whispers: so i hope we dont lose this one but if we did, everything is in farzad hand
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I don't win a second pawn
LNO(1895) whispers: no you dont
LNO(1895) whispers: but 25.Re1 (4:50)
LNO(1895) whispers: you have one pawn
Mayors(1750) whispers: oh sorry didnt know their captain with us
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I do wish to activate my pieces somehow 25...Rfa8 (1:37)
LNO(1895) whispers: The g3 N can go to d5
LNO(1895) whispers: f1 e3 d5 26.Nf1 (1:38) gxf5 (1:40)
LNO(1895) whispers: thinkng about it it can go to c4 also 27.Nxf5+ (0:56)
LNO(1895) whispers: that should be the square 27...Bxf5 (0:12) 28.exf5 (0:01) Nf6 (0:02)
Mayors(1750) whispers: wow i think now it will be draw
trebejo(1852) whispers: did black just get some counterplay? 29.Ne3 (0:32)
LNO(1895) whispers: there you have the shortcomings of me a 1800 player, i dont see all the possible squares at once 29...Rh8 (0:25)
LNO(1895) whispers: to say that its a draw already might be optimistic, but chances for sure 30.Nc4 (2:16) Ra6 (0:43) 31.Re3 (0:34)
Mayors(1750) whispers: yes lets be optimistic and having hope for a draw
LNO(1895) whispers: yes lets be optimistic and hope for a white win :)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: right 31...Nd5 (1:26)
LNO(1895) whispers: do we have tactics after f6?
Mayors(1750) whispers: lol, axel is my friend but in other hand tahsine is a friend and also my player :( so i hope black draw sorry
LNO(1895) whispers: i think we have
LNO(1895) whispers: it cannot be taken 32.Rg3+ (2:23)
LNO(1895) whispers: why not f6?
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: right Lars
NightFury(2180) whispers: the pawn would be very weak on f6 after the king moved
LNO(1895) whispers: so I think people misunderstood Fischer when he said he didnt belive in psychology, chess is very much about psychology, and he knew it
LNO(1895) whispers: ok I understand that f6 could be weak but how to attack it?
LNO(1895) whispers: the black K would have been driven back 32...Kf6 (3:47)
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: Ne3
LNO(1895) whispers: this cannot in any way have been better, at least not as far as I understand
NightFury(2180) whispers: but Rh6 and black is tied to its defense
tahsine(2194) whispers: I think f6+ was better, MUCH better. But I'm not complaining !!
LNO(1895) whispers: ok axel
LNO(1895) whispers: dalm down now
LNO(1895) whispers: calm down
Mayors(1750) whispers: yes axel pls calm down and give back the pawn you took :D
LNO(1895) whispers: you are still a pawn up 33.Rgf3 (2:46)
LNO(1895) whispers: is Nf4 a move now?
LNO(1895) whispers: no
LNO(1895) whispers: or?
trebejo(1852) whispers: white might go for ng4+, hmm?
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I will not lose my extra pawn if I'm careful 33...Nf4 (2:30)
LNO(1895) whispers: well well
trebejo(1852) whispers: if axel loses his extra pawn, it means he's careless :)
LNO(1895) whispers: i am not sure at all 34.Ne3 (0:33)
trebejo(1852) whispers: the knight on d5 was preventing this a little bit... hmmm
LNO(1895) whispers: ng4 is met by Kxf5
axeltiger(2161) whispers: black cannot really play ...d5 here
axeltiger(2161) whispers: then I play Ng4+ 34...Ke7 (1:22)
LNO(1895) whispers: yes
trebejo(1852) whispers: ok, looks tricky, putting the king in line with the white rooks but then that is the extra pawn... hm
LNO(1895) whispers: now maybe f6
Mayors(1750) whispers: now?
LNO(1895) whispers: yes now
Mayors(1750) whispers: looks fine
Mayors(1750) whispers: black cant take the pawn
LNO(1895) whispers: it cannot be taken
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: right
LNO(1895) whispers: but is it any good?
Mayors(1750) whispers: the best move axel should go for it is f6
mcstorytaller(1739) whispers: if Kx then g3!
LNO(1895) whispers: yes but thats an easy trap
Mayors(1750) whispers: it will make that king run away
LNO(1895) whispers: black must not fall into it
LNO(1895) whispers: the K can go to e6 35.f6+ (4:41)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I don't want to let him get a blockade here
tahsine(2194) whispers: Kxf6 Nd5+ and I'm done
tahsine(2194) whispers: or even g3 and I'm even "pretty well done" 35...Ke6 (1:54) 36.Ng4 (0:05) Ra1+ (1:45)
Mayors(1750) whispers: i dont know why but i feel this will be a draw 37.Kh2 (0:58)
LNO(1895) whispers: yes now its pretty equal I think 37...Kd7 (1:24) 38.Ne3 (3:38)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: I've not played this optimally at all
Mayors(1750) whispers: i think not
Mayors(1750) whispers: i think axel rushed when he had win chances
Mayors(1750) whispers: and didn't finish the job he supposed to 38...Rh6 (3:59)
tahsine(2194) whispers: what is the probability that he plays g3 ??
Mayors(1750) whispers: will axel loose the pawn on f6 soon?
tahsine(2194) whispers: that will be really cool :)
tahsine(2194) whispers: this match is crazy, I was totally lost at one moment, and now I'm not that bad (maybe even almost equal !!). 39.g4 (3:25)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: nah, Rxf6 doesn't work
tahsine(2194) whispers: OMG !
tahsine(2194) whispers: OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LNO(1895) whispers: Nxh3 can be played here
Mayors(1750) whispers: what axel
Mayors(1750) whispers: what tahsine*
tahsine(2194) whispers: he is offering me that pawn back !
trebejo(1852) whispers: rxf6 ng2, right?
LNO(1895) whispers: Nxh3
Mayors(1750) whispers: perfect
tahsine(2194) whispers: I'm BACK ALIVE !!!! 39...Nxh3 (1:49)
Mayors(1750) whispers: Bravo
trebejo(1852) whispers: nice
axeltiger(2161) whispers: clever
trebejo(1852) whispers: rxh3 rh1+ kxh1 rxh3+ white moves rxe3 :)
LNO(1895) whispers: lets look at alternatives
LNO(1895) whispers: Nf5
LNO(1895) whispers: maybe
LNO(1895) whispers: i dont know
Mayors(1750) whispers: perfect
LNO(1895) whispers: havent calculated
axeltiger(2161) whispers: man
trebejo(1852) whispers: nf5 nxf2 nxh6 rh1+ ?
axeltiger(2161) whispers: why did I have to fall for that cheap one? 40.Rxh3 (2:24)
LNO(1895) whispers: this was probably best
trebejo(1852) whispers: axel thinks this is cheap :)
LNO(1895) whispers: even I saw it so
trebejo(1852) whispers: i should show axel some of my finer victories
axeltiger(2161) whispers: Rh1 is the only move
axeltiger(2161) whispers: maybe he disconnected?
trebejo(1852) whispers: black is still running around the house telling people that he is OK now :)
axeltiger(2161) whispers: that's the most likely explanation
Mayors(1750) whispers: omg comeon tahsine
trebejo(1852) whispers: Black's finger notes say "I have frequent lags." :)
Mayors(1750) whispers: play
Mayors(1750) whispers: i hope he at least disconnect his modem so game will be adjoruned if he really got disconnected
axeltiger(2161) whispers: there's no way that he's actually weighing his options here tahsine forfeits on time 1-0
