1. e4
This game I hope to significantly batter Rob, who I have managed but one draw in 6 games against. I start with the standard opening

 
1... g5
a response I haven't seen before

 
2. d4
I press for center board control

 
2... Bg7
he apparently wants to give me the pawn ~

 
3. Nc3
since he is by far the better player i sense a trap and decline and continue to develop

 
3... h6
guess he changed his mind...

 
4. f4
i press to get him furhter off balance, figuring I am going to O-O-O at somepoint anyway.

 
4... c5
he apparently smells that and wants to Break that up. I really don't like this..At this point we are trading silly banter. (rt4sm) I have a confession to make... i often hype up my opponent's play, i think it can get them overconfident whilst ensuring they like me, so i still make friends. I'm supposed to be the star of SC, but i still stoop low enough to enter the psychological battleground. Comment: (yodean) Your confession only validates you to be the scum you are. wait till i tell the others. Your tactic may work on YoDean, the simp, but not the great nfgatchess ! I finally respond with Ne2 not sure why... i just don't like my other options~ they seem to put other pieces out in places I don't want them yet.

 
5. Nge2
...

 
5... cxd4
so he (surprisingly) plays as predicted...

 
6. Nxd4
and so do I.

 
6... Qa5
Now I am thinking since his castle is messed up on both sides if i can just swap material for a while i can work into a winning position since he won't be able to castle effectively (I think) - Qd3

 
7. Qd3
I don't see a respnse he has that can really gain him anything

 
7... Nc6 8. Nxc6
I really want to see which way he takes it.

 
8... dxc6
so he takes AWAY from the center of the board, but it does open up his white bishop

 
9. Be2
I move, I figure I might end up with stacked pawns but now it looks like I am going to O-O (instead of O-O-O) and develop the rook at the same time on the f-file

 
9... Bxc3+
he ends up starting what i think will stack my pawns on c-file

 
10. Qxc3
...

 
10... Qxc3+
...

 
11. bxc3
He does..
