A good opening, a series of mistakes by white, and a good engame well executed | ||||||
|
1. d4 |
Black takes advantage of a series of blunders by white to earn a win through mate | |||||
| | ||||||
|
1... d5 |
A queen opening. I choose to match white in the middle of the board and see how the opening progresses. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
2. Nc3 |
I am under immediate pressure | |||||
| | ||||||
|
2... e6 |
I choose defense | |||||
| | ||||||
|
3. Bf4 |
WHite is ahead in development and pressing me firmly | |||||
| | ||||||
|
3... a6 |
I protect against the attack on C2 and the fork to follow | |||||
| | ||||||
|
4. Nh3 |
White continues to develop his minor pieces, I am lagging seriously behind | |||||
| | ||||||
|
4... Nf6 |
So I step up my efforts to catchup in development | |||||
| | ||||||
|
5. g3 |
I see white building a castle | |||||
| | ||||||
|
5... g6 |
and I follow suite | |||||
| | ||||||
|
6. Bg2 Bg7 7. O-O O-O |
The castles constructed, I breathe a sigh of relief. I do not like my King so exposed | |||||
| | ||||||
|
8. Na4 |
A move I do not fully understand. White is trying to ....do what.....???????????? | |||||
| | ||||||
|
8... Re8 |
I continue my castle development and my opneing sequence | |||||
| | ||||||
|
9. Qd3 |
So white brings the Queen. This gives white control of much of mys side of the board I suppose, so in one sense, white is well ahead. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
9... Nbd7 |
Undaunted, I continue to open the game | |||||
| | ||||||
|
10. Qd2 |
See, this is what I call a wasted move. White could have done this a move earlier, and then I would have had to react then, bit I did not worry about it until now. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
10... Ne4 |
OK, so I threaten the queen and force a retreat | |||||
| | ||||||
|
11. Qe3 |
Well at least that is what I thought would occur | |||||
| | ||||||
|
11... e5 |
So instead I challenge the bishop | |||||
| | ||||||
|
12. dxe5 |
oops..... | |||||
