Annotated by andy94 (1200): This is the third game between me and ionadowman. In this one I play black and my opponent plays white. g3....I didn't face it many times. So, I try to follow main lines. Very beautiful position! ...I'd tried Ne2. Castles. 13.c4 to create a breaking point. Black pieces seem to be better placed than white's Black wants to increase his power on e file I gain a pawn if… |
