1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 Nf6
|
I felt like playing the Berlin Defense, and see what happened. |
 
|
| |
|
|
4. b3
|
I was not expecting this. Normally the move would be to capture the black pawn on e5. |
|
| |
|
|
4... Bc5 5. Bb2 O-O
|
Position is now at equilibrium. White is not yet done with development. I expected from here to have White castle, and then develop his night. |
|
| |
|
|
6. Bxe5
|
A major mistake, as the white king is not yet adequately protected. |
|
| |
|
|
6... Nxe5
|
Just a trick to start my combination. White might have expected this, but if he did, then he didn't deeply explore move. Or he didn't thing that I would sacrifice the Bishop. The best move now in my opinion is now D4. You can't let the Bishop get access to F2 if you still haven't castled. |

|
7. Nxe5 Bxf2+
|
Start of the blitzkrieg that would give Black a decisive advantage. best move for white is now Kf1. This would limit the damage, and gain time to defend. |
|
| |
|
|
8. Kxf2 Nxe4+
|
clearing the way for the black queen to dance. |
|
| |
|
|
9. Kf3
|
This was not all that great. It just exposes the king further, and pulls white to defeat. |
|
| |
|
|
9... Qf6+
|
What else?! black now has to attack to keep white off balance. |
|
| |
|
|
10. Kxe4
|
the capture practically begs not to be played, though I doubt that the position can be saved. |
|
| |
|
|
10... d5+
|
Allowing another piece into the blitz. |
|
| |
|
|
11. Kd4
|
The capture of the pawn would only have lead to early defeat. if 11. Kxd5 then c6! and the capture of the knight. |
|
| |
|
|
11... Qf4+
|
only move |
|
| |
|
|
12. Kxd5
|
Wrong way! the king should be heading towards safety!
|
|
| |
|
|
12... Be6+
|
gaining even more time! the night now has to be abandoned. |
|
| |
|
|
13. Kc5
|
only move... the King can't head to the hills. |
|
| |
|
|
13... Qxe5+ 14. Kb4 a5+
|
the only logical way to follow up the attack, and gains the bishop, though if white was concerned, he would've resigned by now. |
|
| |
|
|
15. Ka3
|
only move, and incidentally, sets up a trap. if 15. ...Qxa1?? then 16. c3! and the queen is trapped! |
|
| |
|
|
15... c6
|
Capturing the bishop only loses time, and the white king is then safe. |
|
| |
|
|
16. c3
|
Setting up shelter. Finally, White can breath slightly easier, or can he... |
|
