I keep using this system despite I know it is inferior against a strong player. But it is always fun to see how things get out... |

Finally something - and better, IMO - than Nc3! It is very dangerous to play against this. |

3... e5
|
if Nc3, Bb5, a6, BxN, bxN is a likely outcome. Qa5 is a move I don't like. |

Thank you white. You give me the castling rights, but without the queens the game will be interesting. As in fact was. |
|
| |
|
|
4... Qxd1+
|
The alternative, Qxe4+, is also playable. Black has attack, but I preferred this line. |
|
| |
|
|
5. Kxd1 Bc5
|
Developing + threatening, but the f pawn was to go on f4 anyway, sooner or later. |
|

6. f4 b6
|
...so I can exploit the big diagonal... though this path is no with no dangers, as we'll see. With the text move, I take advantage on the fact that the black bishop can't be easily kicked by pawns (c3-b4 is too costly for developement). |

7. Nf3 Bb7

It's always uneasy to play against this. |

8. Bd3

White has to be very careful with the diagonal. |
|
| |
|
|
8... Ne7
|
This knight is going to try to take advantage from the half pinned Nf3 and g2. |
|

9. Nc3 Ng6
|
I'll be glad about BxN. Now, the danger is f5, but BxN+, gxB, Nxe4, Re8, and the N is pinned, but no pawn can kick him, and f6 defends it, as Nd7 and Bd6, just in case, so no worry about that. |

...but white surprises me with this rather obvious plan. I had my think, here, finding out what was the best move. Bc6, c6, or Nc6? Hard choice. |
|

|
|
10... Nc6
|
The "worst" one. But I was thinking on a tactic based on e4. Of course, if white goes f5, now I have to retire sadly on e7, since Nxe4 loses the piece. |
|

11. Bd2
|
White missed his chance, sadly for him. Not that this was a bad move, but for... |
|
| |
|
|
11... O-O-O
|
...letting me win a tempo. And he can't castle... my queen's exchange's seed grows here. |
|

|
12. Nd5
|
And this suggested me a "great" tactic: Nxe5, fxN, Nxe5, NxN, BxN, BxB, RxB, Nxf7, and black has open lines and pressure on the white king, who can't castle. BUT... |

12... Ncxe5 13. Nxb6+
|
White finds a countertactic! Wow! I didn't even think on this move. ok. let's see: even if it seems better to keep the pawns together, I thought that after the storm it would be nice to be able to play c5, to keep the white's dsb off the action from b4. |
|
| |
|
|
13... Bxb6
|
My bishop, here, is also safe from b4! by white. |
|
| |
|
|
14. Bxb7+
|
As expected. |
|
| |
|
|
14... Kxb7 15. fxe5
|
Now I can recover the pawn. I'm not sure I've played the best way, maybe my advantage is not so great as if I had kept the tension. Anyway, the position is still good for me because white can't castle. |
