Login to get PGN standard 45+45, 2023-04-09

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 Rg1
MZaiser resigns 1-0
