1.Nf3(0:00)c5(0:00) 2.c4(0:06)Nc6(0:04) 3.g3(0:28)e5(0:39) 4.d3(1:02)g6(0:10) 5.Bg2(0:33)Bg7(0:59) 6.Nc3(0:11)Nge7(0:13) 7.O-O(0:54)O-O(0:12) 8.Rb1(1:04)d6(1:45) 9.a3(0:21)a5(0:09) 10.e3(0:52)h6(4:01) 11.Nd5(1:06)
xombie(2036) whispers: i think e3 was a mistake. d5 after that looked good for black.
11...Nxd5(0:52) 12.cxd5(0:03)Ne7(0:01)
xombie(2036) whispers: now i get to play my usual maneuvres
13.Nd2(0:07)
xombie(2036) whispers: among other things, b4
13...b5(0:35) 14.b4(0:03)
xombie(2036) whispers: hey, maybe that was a bit hasty xombie(2036) whispers: the usual idea is to play a4 so that we can get control of c4 xombie(2036) whispers: this was a mistale xombie(2036) whispers: i felt that there were some tactics
14...cxb4(1:41) 15.axb4(0:33)a4(0:10)
xombie(2036) whispers: well, not good at all now
16.Bb2(1:25)Bb7(3:13) 17.e4(0:54)Qb6(1:53) 18.Kh1(2:03)f5(3:54) 19.f4(0:32)exf4(0:53) 20.Bxg7(0:13)Kxg7(0:03) 21.gxf4(0:44)
xombie(2036) whispers: again, i think i misplayed this xombie(2036) whispers: in that, if Rxf4 then one could perhaps think that one could nurture some hopes of taking advantage of the airy kingside if things worked out favourably xombie(2036) whispers: but now, i have no idea what is happening xombie(2036) whispers: black has access to many airy points like e3 xombie(2036) whispers: the idea is to somehow play e4-e5 but my pieces are not in any position to support this sort of advance xombie(2036) whispers: immediately, Qe3 does not work - Rf3 defends the pawns
21...Rac8(6:08) 22.Nf3(3:34)
xombie(2036) whispers: Rc1 fails to Qd4 xombie(2036) whispers: Nf3 is an attempt to get some play going - Pxe4 Pxd4 Rxf4 Nd4 Rxf1+ Bxf1 with Ne6+ next xombie(2036) whispers: of course, i should worry about the piece sac on d5 xombie(2036) whispers: with both Q and B bearing down on adjacent diagonals xombie(2036) whispers: i dont think Qc7-c2 is bad for me. in fact, a queen exchange would solve all my problems xombie(2036) whispers: his queen is a nuisance on the diagonal
22...fxe4(4:54) 23.dxe4(0:03)Rxf4(0:44) 24.Nd4(0:02)Rxf1+(0:07) 25.Bxf1(0:03)Rc3(8:02)
xombie(2036) whispers: wow xombie(2036) whispers: hmm maybe its done on purpuse to lure my queen away from the light squares xombie(2036) whispers: in a game long time ago against a master, i had a lot of fun on the lights - Qg4-h5 etc. with an exchange sac to get rid of his LSB. There, he had already played g5, so my knight could plant along with Be5. xombie(2036) whispers: but here, Qd2 simply drives the rook away (Qc7 fails to Ne6+) xombie(2036) whispers: or he can play Ra3 which cant be good xombie(2036) whispers: hmm maybe he wants me to play Nxb5
26.Qd2(3:44)
xombie(2036) whispers: now its either Rc8 or Rb3 xombie(2036) whispers: i felt (before these developments) that it would be hard to play Ne6 with bite xombie(2036) whispers: say, if he had played Kh7 then Ne6 costs a tempo xombie(2036) whispers: not so anymore - white can play Qb2
26...Rc7(2:49)
xombie(2036) whispers: an exchange sacrifice! xombie(2036) whispers: forced, almost, as if Rc8 then it would be hard to defend g7 xombie(2036) whispers: but now he can move the knight xombie(2036) whispers: lets see. i think this wins LJMon(1848) whispers: kinda like white here also xombie(2036) whispers: oh, he has Nxd5 in many lines LJMon(1848) whispers: Nd5 ? LJMon(1848) whispers: Nxd5 not good after NxR
27.Ne6+(10:23)
LJMon(1848) whispers: crunch
27...Kh7(0:27) 28.Nxc7(4:58)Qxc7(0:03)
xombie(2036) whispers: too complex damouno(2288) whispers: black may be able to eek out a draw LJMon(1848) whispers: Tc1 why mess around? LJMon(1848) whispers: Rc1 why mess around
29.Bxb5(1:31)
xombie(2036) whispers: i was thinking of lines with Qf4
29...a3(0:53) 30.Rf1(0:32)Ng8(0:49) 31.Be8(2:02)
LJMon(1848) whispers: maybe Qd4 LJMon(1848) whispers: also Bc6 was good
31...Qc4(1:04)
LJMon(1848) whispers: over
32.Bxg6+(2:46)
xombie(2036) whispers: almsost forgot that M1 was threatened xombie(2036) whispers: he cannot take on g6 xombie(2036) whispers: Kxg6 Qg2+ Kh7 Rg1MZaiser resigns 1-0
