1.f4 (0:00) e5 (0:00)
Mekk(1926) whispers: this is more or less friendly as my team already lost the match 2.fxe5 (0:10) d6 (0:03)
Mekk(1926) whispers: so let's try something unusual 3.exd6 (0:12) Bxd6 (0:00) 4.Nf3 (0:03) Bg4 (0:04) 5.g3 (0:22) h5 (0:14)
Mekk(1926) whispers: 15 years ago or so I knew this variation. Haven't refreshed it since then
Mekk(1926) whispers: in general would be nice to avoid Qh4#
Mekk(1926) whispers: considering d3 h4 Bf4 and vaguely remembering Nh4-g2 6.d3 (3:30) h4 (2:23)
Mekk(1926) whispers: Nh4 Rh4 gxh4 Qxh4 Kd2 Bf4 Kc3 is rather adventurous
Mekk(1926) whispers: Bf4 hxg3 also not that, but Bg5 more promising mayhaps 7.Bg5 (2:33) f6 (2:36)
Mekk(1926) whispers: can give pawn back or offer B for 2 more, hmm 8.Bxh4 (3:53)
Mekk(1926) whispers: I like pawns. And let his king be even more bare 8...g5 (2:19)
Mekk(1926) whispers: Bxg5 fxg5 Bg2 or Bxg5 Bxg4 hxg3 Rxh1 B escapes. Hope I survive somehow 9.Bxg5 (1:47) Bxg3+ (2:11) 10.hxg3 (0:15) Rxh1 (0:26)
Mekk(1926) whispers: where to go, hmm
Mekk(1926) whispers: planned Be3 but maybe Bh4, hmm

Mekk(1926) whispers: Bf4 may protect e3 if I play it 11.Bf4 (3:17) Qe7 (2:10)
Mekk(1926) whispers: Nd2 was to be played against Bh3, so maybe just the same... 12.Nbd2 (1:32) Nc6 (2:18) 13.c3 (1:05) O-O-O (2:09)
Mekk(1926) whispers: Qanted Qa4 but Bxf3 Nxf3 Rxd3
Mekk(1926) whispers: Qc2 Ne5 shoud be survivable with Bxe5 but not very comfortable
Mekk(1926) whispers: or castle... still nothing better 14.Qc2 (3:33) f5 (2:20) 15.O-O-O (0:48) Nf6 (2:05) 16.Bg5 (5:36) Rg8 (3:37) 17.Bh4 (1:29)
Mekk(1926) whispers: not sure about that but I must try to activate. Considered Bg2 move ago but then invasion via h file
Mekk(1926) whispers: (after rook swap) 17...Qf8 (4:26) 18.Bg2 (3:26)
Mekk(1926) whispers: no way to untangle without it 18...Rxd1+ (0:19) 19.Qxd1 (0:06) Nd5 (1:18) 20.Nf1 (1:16)
Mekk(1926) whispers: now would be nice to have B on d2 or f2 maybe. Wherever I move it, it is not there ;-) 20...f4 (1:19) 21.N3h2 (1:59) Be6 (2:41) 22.g4 (2:46)
Mekk(1926) whispers: probably not optimal but I like it somehow 22...Qh6 (1:27)
Mekk(1926) whispers: Yeah, forgot that :-(
Mekk(1926) whispers: Be1 f3 Bd2 xb2 xh6 g1=Q, piece down 23.Nf3 (6:23) Bxg4 (2:08) 24.Bf2 (0:37) Be6 (0:44) 25.Nd4 (4:47) f3+ (3:15) 26.Nd2 (0:39) Rxg2 (1:52) 27.Nxc6 (1:26) Rxf2 (1:53) 28.Nxa7+ (0:50) Kd8 (0:56) 29.exf3 (0:48) Rh2 (1:09) 30.Qe1 (1:08) Ne3 (0:27) 31.f4 (1:26) Rh1 (0:10)
Mekk(1926) whispers: ok, nothing out of it. As usual I misplayed calm move (g4 was bad but likely Bf2 was final suicide, Be1 and I would loose pawn) Mekk resigns 0-1
