1. e4 e5 2. c4 Bc5 3. Nh3 Qf6 4. Nc3 d6 |
Threatening the Knight | ||||
| | |||||
|
5. Nd5 |
Good move - surprised me. | ||||
| | |||||
|
5... Qd8 6. a3 |
Slow attack on the B? Otherwise I don't get it. I think it is a wasted move right now. | ||||
| | |||||
|
6... c6 7. Qa4 |
nice defense of the knight | ||||
| | |||||
|
7... Bd7 8. Ne3 Bxe3 |
I hate your knights and don't mind trading b's for them. | ||||
| | |||||
|
9. dxe3 c5 10. Qd1 Bc6 11. f3 a6 |
This seems like a better time to pull this pawn up. | ||||
| | |||||
|
12. f4 |
You lost the game here. Initiative is mine - I threatened e4 on turn 10 and you immediately move off that protection. | ||||
| | |||||
|
12... Bxe4 13. Ng5 f5 14. b4 |
Another strange move. I am only up a pawn. I might have traded the other knight for my other bishop. I have g3 pinned. a critical point in the game. If you didn't trade pieces, you could move Nf3 to force me to trade if I want. | ||||
| | |||||
|
14... exf4 |
but instead I get another pawn. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15. Ne6 |
Another critical error. You have GOT to move me off of e4 or get Bf1 moving so you can castle. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15... Qh4+ |
g3 in turn 14 would have prevented this too. | ||||
| | |||||
|
16. Kd2 |
Now I am playing chase the king. G3 would be really helpful now, but it is still pinned. | ||||
| | |||||
|
16... fxe3+ 17. Kxe3 Qh6+ 18. Nf4 |
nice recovery. again it shows why I hate your N's | ||||
| | |||||
|
18... Qf6 19. Rb1 Bxb1 |
Oops. Might not have mattered much, but still a mistake. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20. Bd3 Qe5+ 21. Kf3 Bxd3 22. Re1 |
I think you should have taken the B. You get too fancy with the Re1 move and ... | ||||
| | |||||
|
22... Be4+ |
I save the B AND put you in check AND free my Q from being pinned. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23. Ke3 Ne7 |
I want the free pawn (g2), but then my Q is pinned again. I make this move to add another layer in front of my K, plus open up O-O | ||||
| | |||||
|
24. Qh5+ g6 25. Nxg6 |
nice snag and threatens h8 and prevents O-O | ||||
| | |||||
|
25... f4+ |
Stupid move. | ||||
| | |||||
|
26. Nxf4+ Qxh5 |
I really had no choice but to trade Q's. I am way ahead on points, so the trade favors me. | ||||
