Login to get PGN standard 45+45, 2011-05-13

1.e4 (0:00) e6 (0:00) 2.d3 (2:20)
Technika(2175) whispers: *note to self* - remember to play Black's move on the DGT board, BEFORE you play White's next move........lol
2...d5 (1:10) 3.Nd2 (0:28)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: out of the book?
tjradd(2159) whispers: this is the KIA
3...Be7 (2:33)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Nf3-g3-Bg2 for white?
tjradd(2159) whispers: that's the right flavor, yes
4.Ngf3 (0:36) c5 (1:53) 5.g3 (0:40)
Technika(2175) whispers: slightly unusual approach by black, but I am sure this will transpose to a mainline KIA in the manner of the great Fischer games...........
Technika(2175) whispers: alas, I am no Fischer - so plenty of missed opportunities will avail themselves I am sure.......
5...Nf6 (1:33)
tjradd(2159) whispers: perhaps paradoxically, I find the most resilient setup for black to be to play d6 :) Watching user disconnected, some moves/whispers can be missing
6.Bg2 (0:39) O-O (1:13) 7.O-O (0:14)
Technika(2175) whispers: Nc6 transposes into mainline :)
7...Nc6 (0:30)
tjradd(2159) whispers: looks like a position from lecturebot :)
8.Re1 (0:30) Qc7 (0:47) 9.e5 (0:56) Nd7 (1:21) 10.Qe2 (0:12) b5 (0:47) 11.Nf1 (1:29)
Technika(2175) whispers: still mainline, a5 is normal here......
11...Bb7 (1:12) 12.h4 (6:52)
Technika(2175) whispers: h4 is a normal move, but have to be cautious, as Black has played Bb7 instead of a5,b4 Ba6 line that I normally see.......
12...Nb6 (1:28)
Technika(2175) whispers: wow - that is an N for me, not seen this before......
13.Bf4 (3:31) Rad8 (2:11) 14.N1h2 (0:27) Na4 (1:37) 15.Rab1 (3:51)
Technika(2175) whispers: still no pieces off the board - I am sure it will change very soon :)
15...Qa5 (2:37) 16.h5 (2:23) h6 (1:40) 17.Ng4 (0:29)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: h6 targeted
Technika(2175) whispers: hope the observers r enjoying the game, this is a classic KIA - white lining up kside attack, black lining up qside breakthrough........
17...Nb6 (1:49)
tjradd(2159) whispers: h6 looks kinda 1-0
pbeccari(1848) whispers: for sure i'm enjoying and learning!
Technika(2175) whispers: OK, black has little protection on the kside, so it is ripe for the sacrifice.........
tjradd(2159) whispers: Nxh6 is too good to pass up.
Technika(2175) whispers: does it work though......eyeing up Nxh6+ here........
pbeccari(1848) whispers: without the Nf3 could work faster, maybe
Technika(2175) whispers: or a Bxh6 sac......
pbeccari(1848) whispers: also, after moving the king, Rg8 and Bf8 black could meet the threat in some way
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: Nxh6 is more of a gambit than a sac here
pbeccari(1848) whispers: g pawn will come into the fight?
Technika(2175) whispers: hmmm, Bxf6 looks best, because if pxp, I have Qe3 and after Qxh6, followed by Nf6 Bxf6 and exf6 mate is threatened, and Black has no pieces around to defend.........
Technika(2175) whispers: Nxf6 gxh6 Bxh6 Rfe8 does not look as good.......
pbeccari(1848) whispers: i think it's good
Technika(2175) whispers: so does black have anything other than pxB .........
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Kh7 instead of Rfe8
Technika(2175) whispers: Nd7 to cover f6 square, so I put bishop back and it seems a pawn is won.....
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Nxh6 gxh6 Bxh6 Rfe8 Ng5 Bxf8 Kx8 Qf3
Technika(2175) whispers: so is black threatening to win on a3 ......
milpat(1853) whispers: mmm, i didnt calculate, btu i see 2 N 2B and a Q near to king and 2 pawns will go..Kh7 is brave!
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Nxh6 gxh6 Bxh6 Rfe8 Ng5 Bf8 Bxf8 Kx8 Qf3 looks good for white
pbeccari(1848) whispers: h pawn running and mate threat, for what i can see
18.Bxh6 (10:03)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: but Nxh6 gxh6 Bxh6 Kh7 it's more unclear
pbeccari(1848) whispers: i stilll think the key for black it's put rook on g8 and maybe bishop on f8
pbeccari(1848) whispers: instead he captured with bishop, so let's see
tjradd(2159) whispers: I was thinking gh6 Qe3 would be lethal
18...gxh6 (2:16) 19.Qe3 (0:09)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: doesn't look too good for black here
milpat(1853) whispers: all black pieces are qside
pbeccari(1848) whispers: but white queen can't enter for the moment (after Nxh6+)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: why not Nxh6 ?
milpat(1853) whispers: will be Qxh6
milpat(1853) whispers: and Nf6
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: thats what I meant, the queen should take
milpat(1853) whispers: ..and problems
pbeccari(1848) whispers: however, it's black move
Technika(2175) whispers: I think the sac does work......if not, I am confident of a perpetual :)
milpat(1853) whispers: black Q miserably far of the action
19...Qa4 (4:02)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Qb4 could threaten the N and force Nxh6+ Watching user disconnected, some moves/whispers can be missing
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: c4 could work too
20.Bh3 (2:28)
Technika(2175) whispers: missed that threat on the Knight......
pbeccari(1848) whispers: b4 looked nice
Technika(2175) whispers: still threatening Qxh6 - which I believe is hard to meet.......he say's not as confidently as 5 minutes ago :)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: after b4, even if black tries to come back to the king with Qxc2 and Qxd3, probably has not enough tempo
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: got to move the f pawn now and run with the king to the center I think
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Bh3 looks good either way, h6 still under fire
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: the white e pawn is a problem though
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: for black of course
20...Nd4 (4:17)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Qxc2 Qxh6 Qxd3 it's unclear to me
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: Qxh6 might actually be the move here, white can sac the f knight
pbeccari(1848) whispers: really? I thought it was bad
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Qxh6 Nxf3+ Kmoves Nxe1 or Ng5
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: after Qxh6 white has a huge threat of Nf6+
pbeccari(1848) whispers: uh, interesting
Technika(2175) whispers: *applause* - excellent move by black ......
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: white can sac everything, so black has to reply Nf5
pbeccari(1848) whispers: what if Qxh6 Nxf3+ Kmoves and Nxe5
pbeccari(1848) whispers: hmmm Rook comes into the dance...
Technika(2175) whispers: can I still take on h6 and go for the threat of Qh6, Nf6 setup where BxN is forced and after pxB I have mate on g7.........
Technika(2175) whispers: black has the inbetween move of Nxf3+ .....Kg2 ...... NxR+ RxN and still my planned mate attack continues.......
pbeccari(1848) whispers: yeah Qxh6 Nf5 looks a good defense
21.Qxh6 (7:51)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: it's not a great defense, but it survives and might be the best
Technika(2175) whispers: Apologies Bryan if I mess this up for the team.......
pbeccari(1848) whispers: yeah i was trying to make some Nd7 work, but it's too hard for me :)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: if Nxf3 white would go with Kh1 I would think
Technika(2175) whispers: so .... Nxf3+ Kg2 Nxf1+ Rxf1 .....what next for black......
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Kg2?
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: nevermind Kh1 could get dangerous since there is d4
pbeccari(1848) whispers: isn't Kg2 a free tempo for black?
Technika(2175) whispers: white is hoping to play Nf6+, and if BxN the pxB and mate on g7 next move........
pbeccari(1848) whispers: oh, the Bb7
tjradd(2159) whispers: and what is the variation on Nf3 and Ne5
pbeccari(1848) whispers: maybe Rxe5?
21...Nxf3+ (4:21)
tjradd(2159) whispers: ok, and possibly then f5
22.Kg2 (0:08)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Rxe5 f5 Qxe6+ isn't winning?
tjradd(2159) whispers: even Qg4 here is plausible :)
tjradd(2159) whispers: Qg4 Bg4 Bg5
Technika(2175) whispers: arghhhh.........
tjradd(2159) whispers: might be 0-1
Technika(2175) whispers: just spotted Nd7 ........
tjradd(2159) whispers: gives me a headache
22...Qxg4 (3:28)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: wow tjradd
Technika(2175) whispers: ?!?!?
pbeccari(1848) whispers: not sure Nd7 was a good defense
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Tjradd line looks great
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: queen isn't worth everything I guess
Technika(2175) whispers: what have I missed.......:(
tjradd(2159) whispers: well right now it's three minors, but the white queen gets trapped
23.Bxg4 (0:59)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: oh yeah
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: black is a great defender
pbeccari(1848) whispers: beautiful game!
23...Bg5 (0:42)
tjradd(2159) whispers: Qf8 Kf8 Bf3, still interesting
Technika(2175) whispers: ah - I missed that - lol - told you folks I was no Fischer :)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: so we have two minor pieces for a rook
24.Qxf8+ (0:52)
tjradd(2159) whispers: but h-pawn is annoying
24...Kxf8 (0:55) 25.Bxf3 (0:08) Ke7 (0:45)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: black will soon attack e5
pbeccari(1848) whispers: hmm maybe not....
Technika(2175) whispers: so after the dust settles, it is a R&2P for B&N ......... I need to open up some files for the rooks, otherwise the minor pieces dominate.........
Technika(2175) whispers: easier said than done with all my pawns still on the board......
26.Be2 (1:54)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: the Bg5 is annoying
kasperyan(1990) whispers: hi evry body
pbeccari(1848) whispers: f4-Kf3-g4-g5 maneuver?
26...Rg8 (1:17)
kasperyan(1990) whispers: this game in teamleague?
27.Kh3 (0:23) d4 (0:37) 28.f4 (0:11)
tjradd(2159) whispers: yes, tl
28...Bh6 (0:32) 29.Rf1 (0:05)
kasperyan(1990) whispers: thx tjrad
Technika(2175) whispers: have to use my 4x2 kside majority to get some space for my Rooks.....
29...Bc6 (0:52)
tjradd(2159) whispers: might've rushed N/e3
30.Rf2 (0:46) Nd5 (0:45) 31.Bf3 (0:12)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: this is nice
31...Bd7 (0:40)
Technika(2175) whispers: hmmm, might have to take this knight, as d3 is too strong an outpost ......
Technika(2175) whispers: but pxB comes with a check......
Technika(2175) whispers: hmm, but I block it with f5......
pbeccari(1848) whispers: check does not look a big problem. Sure not bigger than allow Ne3
Technika(2175) whispers: darn it .... I would prefer Black with the 2 bishops to be honest.......but I can't see anything else, as i only have one chance to stop Nd3......
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: also, after exd its a 4 to 1 kingside majority
32.Bxd5 (3:21) exd5+ (0:53) 33.f5 (0:00)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: that was a true premove! 33. f5 (0:00.100)
Technika(2175) whispers: should I be cheeky and offer a draw ........or see if I can march these pawns down the board against 2bishsops.........
tjradd(2159) whispers: bah, kill him, don't offer draw :)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: naa play on, it's a very interestng endgame!
33...Be3 (2:11) 34.Rf3 (0:12)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: it was interesting before the endgame too
pbeccari(1848) whispers: lol right
34...Kd8 (0:32)
Technika(2175) whispers: maybe I can do what Gelfand did against Mamedrov :)
35.g4 (0:29)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: where is black's king going??
pbeccari(1848) whispers: want to play on queenside?
pbeccari(1848) whispers: is it realistic?
35...Re8 (0:32)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: no, was making room for the rook
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: i would of plaed bg5
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: played
pbeccari(1848) whispers: on Bg5 the rook could come to g1, supporting the pawn
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: i dont see it. i guess thats why im only 1500:)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Bishop is well placed in e3, imho
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: could b4 be ok here?
36.e6 (4:11)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: nevermind b4 c4
36...fxe6 (0:52)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: now two free pawns under bishops fire....
37.fxe6 (0:04)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: wait, he has f6 too
pbeccari(1848) whispers: ok, fxe6 played
37...Bxe6 (0:57)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: 37.f6 was interesting
38.Rbf1 (0:05)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: rook trade expected
38...Ke7 (0:50)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: ! (avoiding rook trade)
Credit(2215) whispers: I feel sorry for the white player :(
39.Rf6 (1:43)
Credit(2215) whispers: if only 21 Nxd4 first, right?
39...Rg8 (0:36)
Credit(2215) whispers: now the bishops are starting to work ...
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: hard to say if 21 Nxd4 wins
Credit(2215) whispers: ?
40.Rg6 (1:25)
Credit(2215) whispers: why? what would black have to do then? at least the queen sacrifice on g4 won't give him as much as in the game
40...Rxg6 (0:43)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: looks like white pawns are safe after the exc
Credit(2215) whispers: and I did not see any other defence
41.hxg6 (0:04)
Technika(2175) whispers: think I might lose this endgame now, 2 bishsops v rook - my hope is the wsbishop cannot really attack my pawns - yet..........:(
Credit(2215) whispers: still interesting though
41...Bg5 (0:35)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: now Bg5 blocks white king
42.Kg3 (0:14)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: hey Idaho, that was your idea ;)
Credit(2215) whispers: yes good move bg5
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: :)
kasperyan(1990) whispers: impossible that technika u must win
Technika(2175) whispers: troulble is, my rook needs to stay on the f-file to stop black's king coming over to win the 2 g-pawns......
42...a5 (0:52)
kasperyan(1990) whispers: must kh4
Technika(2175) whispers: which means black can launch the pawn storm now...... and sure enough.......
43.b3 (0:33)
kasperyan(1990) whispers: h file
43...a4 (1:10) 44.bxa4 (1:03)
tjradd(2159) whispers: this really helps white's swindle chances :p
Credit(2215) whispers: take on a4 and try to eat the panw on a4 to make another free pawn
44...bxa4 (0:35)
Credit(2215) whispers: b file ;)
45.a3 (0:40)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: so Rb1 and abandon g pawns to their ugly destiny
Credit(2215) whispers: hmm... I would have left this thing on white ...
Funkmaus(2165) whispers: huh on a2 wasnt target
45...c4 (0:40) 46.Rb1 (0:07) Bh6 (0:38)
Technika(2175) whispers: might be able to create a passed pawn on the a-file, if I am lucky .........
pbeccari(1848) whispers: what about Kh4
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: after 21. Nxd4 there is Bg5
47.Rb4 (1:00)
Credit(2215) whispers: ah...
47...Kf6 (0:36)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Rb6?
48.Rxa4 (0:18) Kxg6 (0:35)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: ok, so white is going for the a pawn now
49.Ra6 (0:10)
StrategyMaster(1949) whispers: and I have to admit I needed to check my engine there Credit, its such a complicated position
pbeccari(1848) whispers: he could sac the rook against the ls bishop
49...Kf7 (0:42)
Credit(2215) whispers: after ...bg5 Nxh6+
50.a4 (0:29)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: white looks better than a few moves ago
Credit(2215) whispers: yes... white is lots happier :)
50...cxd3 (0:50)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: black must have missed something with his qside pawnstorm, of course i missed it too :D
51.cxd3 (0:10) Bf8 (0:35)
tjradd(2159) whispers: the whole idea of opening the queenside was bad
Technika(2175) whispers: hmmm, this has turned out better than I thought.......need to watch for tactics to win the d3 pawn.....if that drops I lose :)
Credit(2215) whispers: at least this is a nice game for us spectators ;)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: so black should have continued playing on kside, tjradd?
tjradd(2159) whispers: black could have carefully picked off the two g-pawns without exposing himself to lateral attacks and now a passer
Credit(2215) whispers: picked off? how?
Funkmaus(2165) whispers: Dont see how those bishops can fight 2 passers, since king can support g-pawn and for LSB square d5 blocked.
52.Kf3 (2:21) Bd7 (0:52)
Credit(2215) whispers: yes... the main problem is that the black white bishop is so bad now
Credit(2215) whispers: was kf3 not a little too modest? maybe kf4 to expand?
53.a5 (2:44)
Credit(2215) whispers: ah well.. if bb5 then after a check the king can protect d3, the base ;)
53...Bc5 (1:48) 54.Rh6 (1:44) Bb5 (1:15) 55.Ke2 (0:13)
Funkmaus(2165) whispers: a6-a7, Bxa7 Rh8+ Kmoves RxB is a little threat
55...Kg7 (0:48)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: g5 now
pbeccari(1848) whispers: looks like black can't improve his position
56.g5 (1:19)
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: be7
Funkmaus(2165) whispers: Rh5 Bc6 a6! looked better imho
Credit(2215) whispers: black has to watch out for zugzwang ...
Funkmaus(2165) whispers: would made LSB sit and watch
Credit(2215) whispers: after be7 --> Rb6
56...Bb4 (1:38)
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: uh oh
Credit(2215) whispers: and now also?
Funkmaus(2165) whispers: yeah... what else
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: white wins one of the bishops
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: ?
pbeccari(1848) whispers: on Rb6 Bxd3+ and then Bxa5
pbeccari(1848) whispers: maybe a6?
Technika(2175) whispers: sure that loses a bishop..... Rb6 Bxa5 Rxb5 ..... or am I missing something...... well I guess Bxd3+ Kd3 Ba5 is awkward as my king would need to stay on d3.......
57.Rb6 (3:43)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: Rb6 Bxd3+ could lead to draw
Funkmaus(2165) whispers: this is nice idea
57...Bxd3+ (1:07)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: what was wrong with a6?
58.Kxd3 (0:05) Bxa5 (0:21) 59.Rb5 (0:05)
Credit(2215) whispers: still wins for white I think
pbeccari(1848) whispers: no, wait. It is not a problem. After Bc3 Rxd5 just play Rc5 and move the king on
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: bc3 rxd kg6. draw
59...Be1 (1:37)
Credit(2215) whispers: draw? no, with your rook behind the d-pawn.. the white king goes to the g-pawn and that will be pushed
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: ohh i see
Aneirin(1840) whispers: this Be1 idea is nice
60.Rxd5 (1:23)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: however now black keep the bishops active, and if g5 falls it's R vs B ending
pbeccari(1848) whispers: so Bh4 coming?
60...Kg6 (0:47)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: or Kg6 first
IdahoPlayers(1500) whispers: white doesnt have time to take the d pawn
Credit(2215) whispers: hmm... after ke4 bd2!
pbeccari(1848) whispers: nice
Technika(2175) whispers: well guys & gals, this is drawn, hope you enjoyed the show.......
61.Kxd4 (2:27)
pbeccari(1848) whispers: i'm still wondering what if 57.a6
61...Bd2 (0:28)
Credit(2215) whispers: :) Technika offers a draw.
62.Ke4 (0:32) Game drawn by mutual agreement 1/2-1/2
