1. e4
|
I'm using this more to help myself think out my moves than as an educational tool. Feel free to read if you like...you may gain some insight in how another player plays |
 
|
| |
|
|
1... e5 2. Nf3 Nc6
|
Standard opening |
|
| |
|
|
3. Bb5 d6 4. c3
|
I don't know hy he made this move, unless he wants to bring out the Queen. I'll try to push his bishop away. |
|
| |
|
|
4... a6 5. Ba4
|
Protect the King |
|
| |
|
|
5... Bd7 6. d4
|
Don't want to take, just hold and protect e5.
Start clearing King's side. |
|
| |
|
|
6... Nf6 7. Bg5 Be7
|
Protect the Queen |
|
| |
|
|
8. Nbd2 h6 9. Be3 Ng4
|
His bishop is trapped unless he can spring an unseen trap |
|
| |
|
|
10. O-O
|
Taking the bishop messes up his pawns, but opens f.
Need to work on Queen side castle quickly after. |
|
| |
|
|
10... Nxe3 11. fxe3 Bf6 12. d5
|
Well, I wasn't expecting that this late in the game. His only attacking piece is the bishop.
I can still castle to either side.
Na5 or Ne7? Na5 may get the knight trapped. |
|
| |
|
|
12... Ne7 13. c4
|
I can castle to unpin the King.
|
|
| |
|
|
13... O-O 14. b4
|
He's making room to manuever. c6 and try to break up his pawns? |
|
| |
|
|
14... c6 15. Qe2
|
cxd5 to break up his pawns? |
|
| |
|
|
15... cxd5 16. Bxd7 Qxd7 17. cxd5
|
b5 blocks Q and knight |
|
| |
|
|
17... b5 18. h3 Nc8 19. Nh2 Nb6
|
moving knight forward. If he moves Ng4, Bg5 puts pressure on e3. Can can chase it but, that lets my knight forward. |
|
| |
|
|
20. Rxf6
|
Didn't see that coming. I'll have to get lucky to survive. If I move the pawns forward to prevent the knight, I may have a chance. |
|
| |
|
|
20... gxf6 21. Qh5 f5 22. exf5 f6 23. Ng4 Qg7 24. Nxh6+ Kh8 25. Ne4 Nc4 26. Ng4+ Qh7
|
Try to trade Queens, he'll have a lot of trouble attacking effectively with two knights. |
|
| |
|
|
27. Qxh7+ Kxh7 28. Nexf6+ Kg7 29. Nh5+ Kf7 30. Nh6+ Ke8 31. Ng7+ Kd7 32. Ne6 Rf6 33. Ng4 Rxf5
|
I don't see a way for him to attack effectively if I take the pawn, so let's try it. The pawn is one of the more powerful pieces on the board. |
|
| |
|
|
34. h4
|
He's trying to set me up for a pin,
I can move the King back to help with the pawns, or bring to other rook over. |
|
| |
|
|
34... Rh8 35. g3
|
e4 allows my rook to attack his knight protection and hold e3 in place, but lets his knight out to protect it's protector.
Getting the knight to c3gives it more power, to do so, Nd2, Ne4, Nc3 blocks the e pawn from advancement. |
|
| |
|
|
35... Nd2 36. Rc1
|
watch for Rc7 , I can attack his rook if he does not trade. |
