another game with edler that could have been shorter... | |||||

|
1... c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 a6 |
I begin to know this opening, hello najdorf | |||||
| | ||||||
|
6. Bg5 |
and here is the end of the themes. This is the last game of this tournament, i finished 4th. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
6... e6 |
my favorite defence | |||||
| | ||||||
|
7. f4 |
the most aggressive, i guess | |||||
| | ||||||
|
7... Be7 |
maybe safer is Nbd7, but I wanted to try this one | |||||

8. Bd3 Nbd7 |
a big bowl in the centre of my defence... Najdorf is not very safe for black defence. I learned that you have to be very precautionous. This tournament learned me a lot of stuff. | |||||

here i studied carefully the next 10 moves... And I decided I was up one pawn. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
11... Nxe4 12. Bxe7 |
12 Nxe4 loses the bishop with a check: ... Bxh4+ 13 Nxh4 Qxh4+ and the queen can come back to protect the pawn if necessary. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
12... Nxc3 |
and here go the queens. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
13. Bxd8 Nxd1 |
the option 13 bxc3 Qxe7 is really worse for white as it isolate two pawns on c-column, which is open for black. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
14. Bc7 Nxb2 15. Bxd6 Nxd3+ 16. cxd3 f6 |
one pawn ahead and a much better structure. I think that at a good level, white should already resign. Here edler is right to continue: I am not a good player. | |||||

17. O-O Nb6 |
continuing the development and threatening f5, which means gaining another tempo | |||||
| | ||||||
|
18. Nh4 |
the knight is out for the battle for a good while, as we'll see. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
18... Kf7 |
a fake casling. I am sort of proud in a humble way for these 2-3 movements here, after the exchanges. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
19. Rad1 |
Now white try to diminish his structure's weaknesses, for example by exchanging a bad pawn against a good one. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
19... Nd5 |
but I found out how to refuse the exchange. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
20. Rde1 |
white's hesitations. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
20... Re8 |
preparing the eventual d4. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
21. Rec1 |
what will I do, says white... | |||||
