1. e4 |
So this was another in my series of matches with the lovely penelope80 | |||||
| | ||||||
|
1... c5 |
I wheel out my trusted Sicilian - very appropriate while playing an Italian beauty! | |||||
| | ||||||
|
2. Nf3 |
For the time being she follows the main line. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
2... Nc6 |
As do I. | |||||

3. Bb5 |
Played before, but less common than 3. d4. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
3... e6 |
I prepare to support my knight with Ng-e7. | |||||

4. O-O |
She continues to develop. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
4... Nge7 |
I continue with my plan. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
5. Re1 |
Another logical development move. | |||||

5... a6 |
I hit the bishop. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
6. Bf1 |
She retreats it to f1, all part of her plan. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
6... g6 |
As the f8-a3 diagonal is blocked, it seems to make sense to develop my bishop to g7. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
7. c3 |
She plans d2-d4 with a big centre. | |||||

7... d5 |
I decide to try to interrupt her plan. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
8. exd5 |
She takes. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
8... Nxd5 |
I take back. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
9. d4 |
She grabs the centre. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
9... cxd4 |
I take, before she can burst through the centre with c3-c4 followed by d4-d5. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
10. Nxd4 |
She takes back. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
10... Bd7 |
I stop her from weakening my pawns with Nd4xNc6. We are following Lehner, Oliver (2420) vs. Teske, Henrik (2475). | |||||
