|
1. e4 |
A common and logical first move. | ||||
| | |||||
|
1... d6 |
The Pirc Defense. Some ambitious players consider the Pirc to be boring and passive | ||||
| | |||||
|
2. d4 |
Always go for the e4-d4 setup when your opponent makes a passive first move | ||||
| | |||||
|
2... Nf6 |
The point of d6 on first move is to block to e5 square from pawn advances | ||||
| | |||||
|
3. Bd3 |
I made a passive move. Nc3 is better because it puts the knight attacking the centre. My bishop isn't really controlling much of the centre, just defending the pawn | ||||
| | |||||
|
3... e5 |
Strikes the centre right away | ||||
| | |||||
|
4. c3 c6 |
Not a necesary move | ||||
| | |||||
|
5. Ne2 |
I develop my knight here so that it can have more maneuvering space and doesn't obstruct my f-pawn | ||||
| | |||||
|
5... Be7 |
Prepares to castle | ||||
| | |||||
|
6. f3 |
I make a passive move here because I cannot come up with a plan at this moment, so right now I am just securing my strong center | ||||
| | |||||
|
6... O-O 7. Be3 Be6 8. Nd2 Nbd7 9. Qc2 |
There isn't much going on in the position, so I am just placing my pieces where I think they stand the best | ||||
| | |||||
|
9... d5 |
Black pushes into my center, challenging my pawn. The position is about equal. | ||||
| | |||||
|
10. g4 |
My threat is to play g5, followed by exd5 and Bxh7 but Black can still keep equality with dxe4, stopping my threat. | ||||
| | |||||
|
10... Qb6 |
Allows my threat | ||||
| | |||||
|
11. g5 Ne8 12. exd5 cxd5 13. Bxh7+ Kh8 14. h4 |
I should've just retreated my bishop and stayed up a pawn, but this risky aggressive move almost cost me the game, but gave me a prettier win. | ||||
| | |||||
|
14... g6 |
Black has trapped my bishop and there seems to be no way out. How did I ever win? | ||||
| | |||||
|
15. h5 |
Black can't take my bishop yet because I will play hxg6 with mate in a few moves. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15... Bf5 |
Black wants my queen off the diagonal so that it will be safe to take my bishop | ||||
| | |||||
|
16. Qa4 |
The most active spot for my queen in a crazy game like this. | ||||
| | |||||
|
16... Qxb2 |
Black got a little greedy here. He probably could've taken my bishop now, but hxg6 gives me two pawns for the bishop and a potential kingside attack. Something Black probably didn't want. | ||||
