ghambo(2093) whispers: ok guys ill talk less, i dont want to say stupid things :)
ghambo(2093) whispers: only thing ill say and its not stupid, is that i want to exchange bishop on DSBs 8...b5 (4:42)
ghambo(2093) whispers: oho, where this move come from?
ghambo(2093) whispers: problematic!
ghambo(2093) whispers: but wait, he give me c5 outpost, if b4 na4 nc5 ne1 ne3...
ghambo(2093) whispers: maybe just castle here?
ghambo(2093) whispers: or imadiate d4? 9.d4 (4:21)
ghambo(2093) whispers: to stop c5!
Bionchess(2095) whispers: d4 seems sensible
ghambo(2093) whispers: now i see that be2 wasnot correct, more accurate was d4!
ghambo(2093) whispers: aspecially after h3, now i have to move bishop second time 9...Nbd7 (4:27)
ghambo(2093) whispers: if qb6 castle bc and na5 does job
ghambo(2093) whispers: now what? 10.O-O (1:18) Re8 (1:31)
Slek(2032) whispers: how about e5 here?
Slek(2032) whispers: Ne5 I meant
Bionchess(2095) whispers: Bd3 would be a more cautious move..
Slek(2032) whispers: to prevent Ne4?
Bionchess(2095) whispers: yes
Slek(2032) whispers: my english is a bit weak, what does "cautious" mean?
Bionchess(2095) whispers: maybe wiser ;D 11.Ne5 (6:31)
Slek(2032) whispers: so ghambo follows the foolish Slek insted of the wise Bionchess... bad omen for him

ghambo(2093) whispers: now i prefer to be white
ghambo(2093) whispers: imho white is better here
ghambo(2093) whispers: i cant see clear plans for black
ghambo(2093) whispers: maybe later ill close with c5 to keep bishop in cage 12...e6 (2:59)
ghambo(2093) whispers: and stop some tactical line with blacks c5 after
ghambo(2093) whispers: maybe now?
ghambo(2093) whispers: i dont like that bishop is looking at e5 square
Slek(2032) whispers: maybe Rc1 to keep both options cxb and attack on the c file, and c5 13.c5 (1:49)
ghambo(2093) whispers: Bcdeh4 in future 13...a5 (3:18)
ghambo(2093) whispers: bd3 qc2 ne2 close qside and hunting blacks king its whites plan here
Slek(2032) whispers: how about Bxb5 here? white gets the opportunity to put a knight in c6
Slek(2032) whispers: well, it gives a piece and black occupies e4 so maybe it's not such a great idea 14.Bd3 (2:53)
ghambo(2093) whispers: he has good outpost posibilities too 14...b4 (3:48)
ghambo(2093) whispers: maybe after b4 ne2 ne4! Be4? de qc2 f5 he has nf6 and unpleasant nd5!
ghambo(2093) whispers: a4 b1 e2
ghambo(2093) whispers: b1 d2 is possible to challanging e4...
Slek(2032) whispers: Na4 to fight for b6?
ghambo(2093) whispers: its because i played Bd3 with two tempi
ghambo(2093) whispers: maybe a4 is most correct? if he exchanges on e5 i have nb6
ghambo(2093) whispers: but what it does there?
Slek(2032) whispers: yeah but if he doesnt play Ne4 the Na4 is stuck 15.Nb1 (4:43)
ghambo(2093) whispers: imho e2 qe1 ng3 was possibel too
ghambo(2093) whispers: now he can exchange with Ba6! and whats my advantage after it? 15...Nxe5 (1:23) 16.fxe5 (0:17)
ghambo(2093) whispers: i dont think that it was correct 16...Nd7 (0:57)
ghambo(2093) whispers: now h cant defend with f5 because of dxf6
Slek(2032) whispers: maybe g4?
ghambo(2093) whispers: hmm, f6 is very very unpleasant
ghambo(2093) whispers: he calculated very deeply
ghambo(2093) whispers: maybe de was more accurate by my? i dunno 17.Nd2 (6:12) f6 (0:45) 18.exf6 (0:03) Nxf6 (0:12) 19.Qc2 (0:02) Ba6 (0:32)

ghambo(2093) whispers: great play by my opp
ghambo(2093) whispers: hes founding most agressive moves whole game
ghambo(2093) whispers: good knight vs bad bishop, i dont like it
ghambo(2093) whispers: maybe better is exchange sac on e4?
Slek(2032) whispers: you can always play e5, Nf3 and Bc1
Bionchess(2095) whispers: three possible good moves..
ghambo(2093) whispers: like Tigran does often?
ghambo(2093) whispers: but here is one thing, am not Petrosian :) 23.exd5 (6:05) exd5 (0:11) 24.Nf3 (0:03) Rxe1 (0:24) 25.Rxe1 (0:22) Bf4 (0:26)

ghambo(2093) whispers: hmm, this is unpleasant
ghambo(2093) whispers: should i playe actively with rook?
ghambo(2093) whispers: its very exposed on e6 27.Rf1 (3:12) Ne4 (1:02)
ghambo(2093) whispers: in thisgame i lost moves with bishop two tempi d3 and with rook... 28.Bd2 (3:24)
