palewarrior(1992) vs. schachbjm(2238) 0-1

1.d4 {(0:00)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: hi all

schachbjm(2238) whispers: have fun and enjoy the game!}
1...d5 {(0:00)} 2.c4 {(0:06)} e6 {(0:01)} 3.Nf3 {(0:02)} c5 {(0:03)} 4.cxd5 {(0:13)} exd5 {(0:00)} 5.g3 {(0:24)} Nc6 {(0:16)} 6.Bg2 {(0:12)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: 6... Nf6 7.Bg2 Be7 8.O-O O-O 9.Bg5 c4 10.Ne5 Be6 11.Nxc6 bxc6 12.b3 (sample line) is the normal way to handle this position

schachbjm(2238) whispers: However I have decided to go for the swedish variation, which he has not played yet}
6...c4 {(1:04)} 7.O-O {(0:07)} Bb4 {(0:10)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: He played it without Nc3, nevertheless Bb4 is correct}
8.Nc3 {(0:52)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: ok, now we transpose}
8...Nge7 {(0:11)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: in comparison to a normal tarrasch white has the option to play e2-e4

schachbjm(2238) whispers: which I ll answer with Bxc3, which was played in Wiik ann Zee 2010 between Reindermann and Akobian

schachbjm(2238) whispers: The game continued 9.e4 Bxc3 10.bxc3 O-O 11.Ng5 h6 12.exd5 Nxd5 13.Qf3 Nf6 14.Ne4 Nxed 15.Qxe4 Re8 16.Qf4 Be6 17.Rb1 Qd7

schachbjm(2238) whispers: The swedish is tricky, since it is different to a normal tarrasch, black gains a queenside majority due to the fact that white cannot take on c5 as he would do so in most lines and therefore the endgames are different

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Walter Brown got crushed in a game in time trouble using this opening

schachbjm(2238) whispers: 9.e4 is correct here

schachbjm(2238) whispers: 9.a3 and 9.Ne5 are sidelines}
9.Bf4 {(5:51)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Bf4 is new to me

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Castling kingside looks most natural

schachbjm(2238) whispers: no need to show my cards with Bxc3}
9...O-O {(2:05)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: As white, I would consider Rc1 and Ne5 here

herrahuu(1866) whispers: very interesting setup for me}
10.Rc1 {(1:53)

herrahuu(1866) whispers: c5 always was kind of point of interest - why doesn't black just play it etc.

herrahuu(1866) whispers: and it has so much interesting history behind it

herrahuu(1866) whispers: Spassky - Petrosian 1969, Kasparov - Karpov etc.}
10...Qa5 {(4:19)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I expect a3 here

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Bd2 and there would be some similarities to the Walter Browns game, where 9.Bd2 was played}
11.a3 {(3:30)} Bxc3 {(0:06)} 12.Rxc3 {(0:09)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Bg4 and b5 are my candidates here

schachbjm(2238) whispers: There is no need to play the typical move Be6 at the moment

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I like my position here since e4 is needed and so I am happy to see a pawn on e2

schachbjm(2238) whispers: It is a big advantage to know the lines and a few sample games, where it seems like pale is playing the swedish for the first time

schachbjm(2238) whispers: After b5, white will play Bd6 most likely, so I should consider Rd8 here

Triarius(2307) whispers: isnt the queen misplaced

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Bg4 has the drawback that I fix my bishop, since I might want to play Bf5 later in order to prevent white from playing e4!

schachbjm(2238) whispers: 12... b5 13.Bd6 Rd8 14.Bc5?! Qc7! is a good way to regroup my queen and continue with a5}
12...b5 {(7:05)

herrahuu(1866) whispers: that queenside play does look rather attractive}
13.Bd6 {(6:35)} Rd8 {(0:03)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Bxe7 does not make any sense, Bf4 neither, so Bc5 seems to be the most sensible move, however the bishop does not have an eye on c7 anymore}
14.Bxe7 {(3:21)} Nxe7 {(0:00)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: ...}
15.Qd2 {(4:52)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: My plan is to regroup the queen and continue pushig on the queenside with a5, white will probably play sth. like Re1 e4}
15...Qc7 {(0:38)} 16.b3 {(1:06)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: b3 is not really threatening anything

schachbjm(2238) whispers: bxc dxc is in my favor

schachbjm(2238) whispers: no reason not to go for a5 here}
16...a5 {(0:50)} 17.bxc4 {(0:15)} dxc4 {(0:02)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Rb8 next supporting the b-pawn and going out of tany discoveries

schachbjm(2238) whispers: as I have a clear and easy plan it is comfotable and easy to handle this position

schachbjm(2238) whispers: my queen majority is strong and he has absolutely no (counter)play/initiative here

schachbjm(2238) whispers: he has to react to b4 at the moment, two passers are eciding the game

schachbjm(2238) whispers: another drawback of the b3-bxc4 plan is that now black is able to place a knight on d5, which is a key square in many swedish lines}
18.Rfc1 {(7:17)} Rb8 {(1:32)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: going out of discovery attacks

schachbjm(2238) whispers: and supporting future b4 pawn advance}
19.e4 {(0:41)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: 10 moves later, we see e4 :D}
19...Ba6 {(7:38)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: preparing b4

herrahuu(1866) whispers: i'm wondering how could we make g2 bishop happy piece

herrahuu(1866) whispers: i am very impressed with the fighting spirit}
20.Bf1 {(6:00)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: b4 works, but is it in my favor

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I expect palewarrior to give up the exchange for my LSB and one pawn}
20...b4 {(2:19)} 21.axb4 {(0:04)} axb4 {(0:00)} 22.Rxc4 {(0:03)} Bxc4 {(0:02)} 23.Bxc4 {(0:13)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Bxc4 Ng5}
23...Qd6 {(0:41)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I have the feeling that I missed sth., however my position is easier to play and when there is somebody playing for a win, it is me}
24.e5 {(3:13)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: especially the time situation is in my favor, I did not have to spend that much time in the opening

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Qb6, Qg6 and Qh6 are my options here

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Qg6 mightt have the drawback that Bxf hurts after Ng5

schachbjm(2238) whispers: In the next move I can blockade the diagonale with Nd5

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Qh6 has the drawback that I block h6 to force the knight to retreat

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Qb6 and I keep a look at the d4 pawn

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Another point is that white might be able to get the queen into initiative/attack with Qd3, so Qg6 looks best

schachbjm(2238) whispers: When the queens disappear from the board, the endgames should be in my favor}
24...Qg6 {(7:49)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: he has to play accurate here}
25.d5 {(2:37)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: when he allows me to get h6 and Nd5 in, he is in big trouble

schachbjm(2238) whispers: blocking the diagonale

schachbjm(2238) whispers: in order to get the pawns rolling

schachbjm(2238) whispers: interesting decision

Triarius(2299) whispers: qe4 looks good

schachbjm(2238) whispers: how does he respond to Qe4 which is threatening to take the knight and the pawn on d5 (with the knight)?

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I doubt that there is sth. like d6?!}
25...Qe4 {(5:23)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: show it to me

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I do not see anything here

schachbjm(2238) whispers: It just loses a pawn

schachbjm(2238) whispers: He should have considered 24./25. Ng5 threatening to take on f7, however I am not sure whether I can simply play Kh8 and there is nothing

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I am happy that he did not blitzed out a move showing me that I went into a trap :)

Triarius(2299) whispers: he might just be adding some pathos, like those who wait til last minute before checkmating lol}
26.Ng5 {(9:12)} Qxe5 {(0:01)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: d6 here?}
27.Re1 {(0:29)} Qd6 {(0:40)} 28.Ne4 {(0:08)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I have to watch out for d6?! Bxf7?! shoots ...}
28...Qg6 {(4:04)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: back to my lovely g6 square

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Qc7 Qd3 and I did not see a follow up and I do not want to deal with any d6 issues

schachbjm(2238) whispers: please play any move despite d6}
29.d6 {(1:43)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: :(}
29...Nf5 {(6:08)} 30.Qf4 {(1:52)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I expected d7 Qc6, but it seems to be hopeless

schachbjm(2238) whispers: now that the queen is deflected b3 comes to mind

schachbjm(2238) whispers: complex position}
30...b3 {(2:20)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: btw. Nxd6 is not working at the moment due to Nxd6 Rxd6 Bxf7+!}
31.d7 {(2:40)} b2 {(0:02)} 32.Ba2 {(0:18)} Ra8 {(0:30)} 33.Ng5 {(0:12)} Rxd7 {(0:34)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: d7 is gone, that is great news

schachbjm(2238) whispers: and I am protecitng f7 at the same moment}
34.Qa4 {(1:26)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: wow}
34...Rdd8 {(0:23)

schachbjm(2238) whispers: I should have inserted h6 at one moment, but there was no move to do so

schachbjm(2238) whispers: he defends great after he misplayed the opening

schachbjm(2238) whispers: 9.Bf4?! and 14.Bxd7? were the critical moves

herrahuu(1866) whispers: yeah it is clear that PaleWarrior is talented player!

schachbjm(2238) whispers: Bxf7 Qxf7 is winning for me

schachbjm(2238) whispers: and there are two pieces hanging at the moment

herrahuu(1866) whispers: ayaya the time}
{PaleWarrior forfeits on time} 0-1
