1... e5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 f6 4. dxe5 fxe5 5. Bc4 h6 6. Nc3 a6 7. Be3
|
at this point i've developed all 4 minor pieces and black's are still all on his back rank.... |
|
| |
|
|
7... c6
|
Black wastes another move and takes away the best square from his knight |
|
| |
|
|
8. Qd2
|
i am now prepared to castle long |
|
| |
|
|
8... b5
|
Black advances yet another pawn. |
|
| |
|
|
9. Bxg8
|
i decide to stop letting black take space with his pawns and this prevents black from castling kingside |
|
| |
|
|
9... Rxg8 10. O-O-O
|
now i have my queen and rook focused on the pawn on d6 |
|
| |
|
|
10... Rh8
|
another pointless move |
|
| |
|
|
11. Bc5
|
Black cannot play dxc5 without losing his queen |
|
| |
|
|
11... d5 12. Bxf8
|
i take black's better bishop and i will gain a pawn after Rxf8 |
|
| |
|
|
12... Rxf8 13. Nxe5
|
i debated exd5 but i know that i can play that move next |
|
| |
|
|
13... Qg5
|
black forces a trade of queens and doubles his paws on the g file |
|
| |
|
|
14. Qxg5 hxg5 15. exd5
|
finally i get a chance to play exd5 |
|
| |
|
|
15... Bb7
|
I don't know what black was thinking here. Rxf2 seemed logical |

i'm two pawns up when the dust settles with a strong pawn structure and two more pawns than my opponent |
|

|
18. Rd6 Rc8 19. f3 b4 20. Ne4
|
moves the knight to a square where black's pawns cannot attack it and attacks black's pawn |
|
| |
|
|
20... a5 21. Nxg5 Rf5 22. Re1+ Kf8 23. Ne6+ Kf7 24. Nd4
|
Forcing an exchange of knights |
|
| |
|
|
24... Nxd4 25. Rxd4 Rh8 26. h3
|
i control both open files and have a 3 pawn advantage |
|
| |
|
|
26... Rg5 27. Re2 Rc8 28. b3 g6 29. Rde4 Kg7 30. Re4e5
|
Forcing the exchange of rooks or black losing a pawn |
|
| |
|
|
30... Rg3 31. Rxa5 g5 32. Rb5 Ra8 33. Rxb4 Rxa2 34. Ra4
|
Ra4! black is now forced to trade rooks and resignes because his other rook is trapped and his king cannot cross the E file, so nothing can stop me from getting 2 more queens |
