smallblackcat(2324) whispers: c3 and reorganise the B and Q along the b1-h7 diagonal
12.h3(1:15)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: oh right, that pawn was hanging :)
12...Nd7(0:31) 13.c4(0:36)O-O-O(2:03) 14.c5(1:52)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: b4-b5 comes pretty quickly here
14...Be7(0:55)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: Be7 b4 f5 maybe
15.b4(0:48)Nf6(0:32)
ricefarmer(1971) whispers: lets see who gets mated first
16.Bb2(2:23)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: both Rb1 and b5 seem reasonable here smallblackcat(2324) whispers: hah, I keep missing hanging pawns
16...g5(1:48)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: very tempting is b5 cxb5 c6, but maybe black just plays b6 and laughs
17.g4(2:50)
ricefarmer(1971) whispers: he has to sac and i hope i can beat off the attack - time will tell smallblackcat(2324) whispers: bold as brass smallblackcat(2324) whispers: not convinced that black 'has to sac' but the sac does seem very tempting smallblackcat(2324) whispers: I am quite curious as to what happens after the simple Bg6 smallblackcat(2324) whispers: maybe Bc2
17...Qf4(7:53)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: well now, that is quite a move ricefarmer(1971) whispers: beautiful move - i simply didnt see it smallblackcat(2324) whispers: Bxc6 maybe smallblackcat(2324) whispers: followed by some combo of d5, Qa6 and Be5
18.Bxc6(3:22)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: fireworks! smallblackcat(2324) whispers: honestly, this does look good smallblackcat(2324) whispers: bxc6 d5 and there are so many threats
18...Nxg4(2:54) 19.Bxb7+(0:36)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: hah, this might just end in a perpetual
19...Kxb7(0:57)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: Qb5+ and its very hard for black to avoid the perp smallblackcat(2324) whispers: eg Kc7 d5 and there is both d6+ and Be5+
20.Qb5+(0:53)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: also just Qa5+ in fact smallblackcat(2324) whispers: ok so the question is if white has more smallblackcat(2324) whispers: well after Ka8 I don't see much better than Qc6+ and a perp smallblackcat(2324) whispers: d5 is possible, but risky smallblackcat(2324) whispers: like black can just play Rhg8, Be5+ isn't happening that easily
20...Kc7(4:27)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: well now d5 is basically riskless smallblackcat(2324) whispers: I guess that was true of the other line too avidmate(1835) whispers: GO Cyanide we need this - badly lol smallblackcat(2324) whispers: eh d5 might not be riskless, I missed some ideas smallblackcat(2324) whispers: but Qa5+ is an instant draw
21.Qa5+(4:19)
smallblackcat(2324) whispers: Kd7 Qa4+!? is a way to continue smallblackcat(2324) whispers: but I guess black just avoids Kc7
21...Kc8(1:31) 22.Qa6+(4:52)
ricefarmer(1971) whispers: it will take hime 2 moves or more to mate
22...Kd7(3:13) 23.Qb5+(0:23)Kc8(0:36)
ricefarmer offers a draw.
