Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): This was an over-the-board game in the 4NCL I reply with my normal Normal so far And the same from me, although d6 is slightly more common He attacks my knight I prepare to move my other knight to e7 to protect it He castles I carry on with my plan. He prepares to put his bishop on b2 a6 immediately is more consistent He carries on with his plan Hitting the Bishop. I was afraid if I didn't do… |

Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): In this game I make a horrendous mistake which gave me a lost position. I fight back and gain an advantage in the ending. The big question is whether or not I missed a win towards the end. So it starts with a Sicilian Defence. He continues with the usual. As do I. This is a popular alternative to 3. d2-d4 I prepare to bring my Ng8 to support its colleague. He castles. I continue. He prepares a… |

Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): So this was another in my series of matches with the lovely penelope80 I wheel out my trusted Sicilian - very appropriate while playing an Italian beauty! For the time being she follows the main line. As do I. Played before, but less common than 3. d4. I prepare to support my knight with Ng-e7. She continues to develop. I continue with my plan. Another logical development move. I hit the bishop. … |

Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): This is an interesting companion to my other recent annotation http://gameknot.com/annotation.pl/oswestry-v-telepost-shropshire-league?gm=62607
In that game, I had rook, knight and two pawns for the queen, and, on an open board, the queen was slightly better. In this game, I also have to give up my queen - but my two rooks are far better than the queen on the closed board.… |

Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): So this was another game against one of the lovely ladies from the Sixth Sense Gameknot team. So it starts conventionally She continues with the main line. I develop too. Playing the Sicilian a bit like a Spanish Opening - it is not a bad plan. I prepare to support Nc6 with Ng-e7 She castles I continue with my plan. She move her rook to a more active square. I hit the bishop. She takes. I take… |

Annotated by mistindantacles (1804): black opts for Sicillian Defense... White continues to avoid initiating the pawn exchange, as that will allow black to un-double his c-pawns. Black decides to play for space, and pushes the pawn. Black opens a lane for his bB, protects the weak doubled pawn, and has brought his king-side N into the fray. White is bringing more pressure on the weak doubled pawn than black can… |

Annotated by jotheblackqueen (1200): Hi everyone! Just to let you know that I got my revenge on anthropologist, the guy who beat me in the annotated game "Chimeria". Hope you enjoy this brevity. 3. Bb5 - this is I think the Nimsovich-Rossolimo attack in response to the Sicilian - recommended as a strong line in the database. 6. .......... b5 - this kinda resembles a Ruy Lopez. Frere Leblanc does have the foxhole c2 to… |

Annotated by johnb221 (1200): Ruy Lopez opening I prefer Sicilian as black standard moves so far... I protect the knight with my queen to keep him from messing with my pawn structure his King is safely tucked away now I plan to put the bishop on g7 and then castle he tries to take control of the center... I can't let that happen he takes the knight I probably should have used the b-pawn he gets the pawn back I hassle the … |
