1. d4
|
This is an interesting game that transposes to a Sicilian game. In this game I use a textbook way of neutralizing black;s queen side and then convert my enduring space advantage to a win. |
 
|
| |
|
|
1... c5 2. Nf3 cxd4 3. Nxd4 Nf6 4. Nc3 e5 5. Ndb5 d6 6. e4 a6
|
It is necessary to drive away the advanced knight before proceeding with the rest of my development. |
|
| |
|
|
7. Na3
|
This is a bad square for a Knight. This highlights the drawbacks of the early Nb5. In my opinion I think white has better options than Nb5. |
|
| |
|
|
7... b5
|
heems in the knight on A3. |
|
| |
|
|
8. Nd5
|
This is a dangerous move that allows black too much. Better is Be3 or Bg5 |
|
| |
|
|
8... Nxe4 9. g3
|
With the removal of the pawn on e4 the h1-a8 diagonal is open for business. I aim to make use of the open diagonal |
|
| |
|
|
9... Bb7 10. Bg2 Nc5 11. b4
|
This is a good move. It kick the knight out the good c5 post and neutralizes blacks counter chances on the queen side. |
|
| |
|
|
11... Ncd7 12. O-O
|
wisking the king to safety. |
|
| |
|
|
12... Nc6 13. Be3
|
This strenghtens my influence over the weak b3 square. |
|
| |
|
|
13... Rc8 14. Qd3
|
This threatens c4 and Qf4. |
|
| |
|
|
14... g6 15. c4
|
a decisive blow that leaves black crippled on the queen side. |
|
| |
|
|
15... a5 16. bxa5 bxc4 17. Nxc4
|
White has a powerful passed pawn. |
|
| |
|
|
17... Nxa5 18. Ncb6
|
Who let the dogs out... |
|
| |
|
|
18... Bxd5 19. Nxd5 Nc4 20. Rab1 Nxe3 21. fxe3
|
opens the f file for the rook now f7 is weakness |
|
| |
|
|
21... Rb8 22. Rbc1 Nc5 23. Rxc5
|
a scarifce that leads to a mating attack. |
|
| |
|
|
23... dxc5 24. Nf6+ Ke7 25. Qc4 Qd6 26. Ne4
|
threatening Qxf7 |
|
| |
|
|
26... Qe6 27. Qxc5+ Ke8 28. Nf6+ Qxf6 29. Bc6+ Kd8 30. Qa5+ Kc8 31. Rxf6 Bc5 32. Rxf7 Bxe3+ 33. Kg2 Rb2+ 34. Kh3 Rb6 35. Qa8+ Rb8 36. Bb7+
