I started this game because I was bored and wanted to play someone a couple days after joining the "Southern Chess". Why not play a teammate? I looked for someone near my rank, and voila! here we are. I'm actually annotating this on my 22nd move. Ah, my standard opening.

 
1... c5
I'm seeing this more and more nowadays...

 
2. d4
This is the something Moria Gambit... I have no clue about official names, but I'm told he's to take the pawn... <_<

 
2... e6
Gambit... declined? FINE! Gambit sucked as an X-men anyway. :P

 
3. Ne2
Might as well...

 
3... Nf6 4. f3 Bd6 5. e5
Drop it like it's hot (hot) drop it like it's hot (hot) And when a b--ch gets an- oh, sorry, I really don't have much to say about this schtuff. I figured a favorable pin was in store since I was feeling a threat in the middle, so i figured that snatching a pawn or knight for a pawn was very good. Especially the bishop, since it wasn't protected.

 
5... Nd5 6. exd6 Qa5+
Harsh, dude, harsh. Moving that queen all up in my turf, denying me that d6 pawn coverage from his buddy back two squares...

 
7. c3 c4 8. Bd2 Qb6 9. b3
And I have to make the nessesary sacrifice...

 
9... Qxd6 10. bxc4
An eye for an eye.

 
10... Nf6 11. Nf4
I forget my original reasoning for this move... I think it was to keep the queen off d5 because of my next move...

 
11... e5
he's probably plotting to force my knight away and get himself a pair of pawns for one of his own. well, either that, or he wants me to blow a move moving my knight back to defend that pesky pawn there on d4

 
12. c5
He can have the Knight. I wants me somma dat!

 
12... Qc7
I honestly considered for a few minutes chasing the queen with my knight.

 
13. Nd3
but, alas, it was not to be!

 
13... Nd5 14. g3
flanchetto prep, dawg.

 
14... O-O 15. Bg2 Nc6
Apparently, he doesn't see me lining up the knight in my sights with my bishop...

 
16. f4 f6
And he gave me a free check, to boot.

 
17. Bxd5+ Kh8
Does anyone else agree that having a king stuck in one square is a bad thing?

 
18. fxe5 Re8
smart move. It locks off my pawn from causing further discord amoungst the Black Forces.

 
19. Bf4
time to pump up the defense. You can do eet, little guy! Scare black into submission!
