alrighty, So, this is Me after being kicked out of Southern Chess trying to build up my rating again.
Dude probably doesn't know that I'm actually stronger than my rating shows. |

I intended to get out one of the fancy schmancy modern openings out, so I began to ready the flanchetto. |
|
| |
|
|
2. Qf3
|
The 4-move opening again? pah! |
|
| |
|
|
2... Bg7 3. Bc4
|
I wonder how many people actually fall for that... |
|
| |
|
|
3... e6
|
That stops that. |

intent to move ##. ... d5 eventually, forcing his bishop into a useless corner. |
|
| |
|
|
5. Nh3
|
This move always confuses me. Aren't knights supposed to be used near the middle, where they have the most manuverability? |
|
| |
|
|
5... d5 6. exd5
|
And so it begins... |
|
| |
|
|
6... cxd5
|
*clomp!* |
|
| |
|
|
7. Bb5+ Bd7 8. Bxd7+
|
If you can't tell, I forced that out of him...
I contemplated 7. ... Nc6 8. ... a6 but I'm satisfied with the overall result. |
|
| |
|
|
8... Nxd7 9. O-O Ne7 10. Bg5
|
I was SO waiting for that. With that, I can score 6 points at least! *in an unenthusiastic cheer* yaaaaay. |
|
| |
|
|
10... Bxb2 11. Nf4
|
Y'know... wouldn't most people have moved the OTHER knight out of the way? for, like, avenging the rook? |
|
| |
|
|
11... Qa5
|
I did that to:
Free up my knight from the psuedo-pin he was in.
Add a defender to the d5 pawn
Prepare to jack up his bishop (by moving up my pawn) |
|
| |
|
|
12. Nxe6
|
This baffels me... Why would he give up a knight for a pawn if it doesn't really get him an advantage |
|
| |
|
|
12... fxe6
|
Meh, *recapture* |
|
| |
|
|
13. Na3
|
'bout time he moved the knight! Sheesh! |
|
| |
|
|
13... Bxa1 14. Rxa1 Qxa3
|
... and that puts me 8 up! |
|
| |
|
|
15. Re1
|
This worried me slightly, but then I saw an opening that would blow him to shreds if he took that pawn... |
|
| |
|
|
15... Rc8
|
this made that situation unstable for white. moving the rook away from the back row would cause it pain. MUCH pain. |
|

16. Qe3

lining up for an e-file push? |
