This is my first annotation here on GK. I must thank my opponent here for his aid in this game. Hope you'll enjoy! |

1. e4
|
Starting the Ruy Lopez |

|
| |
|
|
1... e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5
|
The Ruy Lopez achieved. Hoerah for me! |

|
| |
|
|
3... a6 4. Ba4 b5 5. Bb3
|
Pretty straightforward moves till here. |

|
| |
|
|
5... h6
|
Very conservative move... maybe a bit too... |

|
| |
|
|
6. O-O Bd6
|
A bit questionable, coz it blocks the d pawn and the bishop is restricted by the e pawn... |

|
| |
|
|
7. Bd5
|
Time to test the waters... let's just start with a pin on the knight |

|
| |
|
|
7... Nge7
|
Guess he doesn't want my bishop there |

|
| |
|
|
8. Nc3
|
Maybe he'll like my knight more... |

|
| |
|
|
8... Nxd5 9. Nxd5 Ne7
|
Or maybe not... |

Kablam! If he takes the knight, a inevitable mating combination would follow with Qxf6 followed by Bxh6 |

2nd Kablam! Now the bishop is joining the attack. If black takes one of the pieces with the pawn, checkmate will follow. Victory is close! |

|
| |
|
|
13... Nc6
|
Hmmm... this is actually the ONLY move black could make that would prolong his life in this game. Damn... But what about..... |

|
| |
|
|
14. Bxg7+
|
Exactly!... Bishop g7! Just sacrifise the bishop... |

|
| |
|
|
14... Kxg7
|
Forced |

|
| |
|
|
15. Nh5+
|
Luring the king to the centre of the board |

|
| |
|
|
15... Kh6
|
Kinda Forced... |

|
| |
|
|
16. Qg7+
|
And now it's time for another sacrifise |
