1. e4 c6 |
The Caro-Kann is my favourite defense. | ||||
| | |||||
|
2. e5 d6 |
I believe this is the best response to White's slightly uncommon 2nd move. | ||||
| | |||||
|
3. f4 |
Dubious move, probably armed against the King Knight's development. 2.ed is the standard move. | ||||
| | |||||
|
3... Nh6 |
Continuing development. | ||||
| | |||||
|
4. h3 |
Another dubious move, weakening the Kingside. | ||||
| | |||||
|
4... Nf5 |
Instead of continuing the development with 4-g6, it is more important to immediately take advantage of White's weak 4th move. | ||||
| | |||||
|
5. Nc3 Ng3 6. Rh2 g6 7. Nge2 Nxf1 8. Kxf1 dxe5 9. d3 |
A pawn sac, but for what? 9.fe was much better, when I would have replied 9-c5, retaining a slight edge. | ||||
| | |||||
|
9... Bg7 10. Be3 O-O 11. g4 |
A big mistake, further weakening the Kingside. Essential was 11.fe - Be5, 12. g3, when 12-Na6 would retain my advantage. | ||||
| | |||||
|
11... f5 |
The winning move, breaking through the Kingside. | ||||
| | |||||
|
12. g5 exf4 13. Bxf4 e5 14. Be3 Nd7 |
The imprudent 14-f4 would have been answered by 15.Bc5. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15. d4 |
Another error, unnecessarily opening up the game, thereby hastening defeat. 15.Bd2 was necessary. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15... f4 |
Of course! Now there's no defense. | ||||
| | |||||
|
16. Bf2 Nb6 |
It's more important to activate all my pieces than to win a Pawn. | ||||
| | |||||
|
17. h4 |
Holding on to the g-pawn creates a new weakness at g4. Much better was 17.de - f3, 18.Ng3 - Be5, 19.Qd8 - Rd8, prolonging the game. | ||||
| | |||||
|
17... Nc4 18. dxe5 |
18.Kg1 - Bg4, 19. Qd3 would have offered more resistance. Although after 19-Nb2, it wouldn't be too hard to crash through White's position. | ||||
| | |||||
|
18... Nd2+ 19. Kg2 |
19.Kg1 offers more resistance, as in 19-Nf3 , 20.Kh1 - Nh2, 21.Kh2. However, Black still wins by 21-Be5. | ||||
| | |||||
|
19... Bg4 |
This is much better than the win of a piece by 19-f3 , which would have slowed down my attack after 20.Kh1 - fe2, 21.Qe2 - Nf3, 22.Rg2. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20. Ne4 |
A piece blunder, when I was expecting 20.Kg1. In correspondence chess, a drop of a piece for nothing is unpardonable. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20... Nxe4 |
White should resign now. | ||||
| | |||||
|
21. Qxd8 Raxd8 22. Nc3 f3+ 23. Kf1 |
The more 'tenacious' 23.Kg1 would lose to 23-Nc3, 24.bc3 - Be5. | ||||
