1. e4 |
My opponent chose a riskier defense, and then made a few early mistakes and quickly lost. | ||||
| | |||||
|
1... c5 |
Sicilian. | ||||
| | |||||
|
2. Nf3 g6 |
!? Hyper accelerated Dragon. Requires precise play. | ||||
| | |||||
|
3. d4 |
The best way to exploit black's last. | ||||
| | |||||
|
3... cxd4 4. Qxd4 |
Surprise! Here this is actually good. In fact the GK database shows White with a high winning percentage at this point even with best Black play. My opponent seemed unprepared for this. | ||||
| | |||||
|
4... Nf6 5. e5 |
! Keeps up the attack. DB still shows advantage White. | ||||
| | |||||
|
5... Nc6 |
Necessary. | ||||
| | |||||
|
6. Qa4 Nd5 |
What else? | ||||
| | |||||
|
7. Qe4 |
A strong move. | ||||

7... e6 |
Weakens the dark squares. | ||||

White is playing aggressively but there is nothing wrong with that here. The GK data base still shows W with a good winning percentage. | ||||
| | |||||
|
8... Nb6 9. Nc3 Bg7 |
?! Risky. Better was first ...a6. | ||||

|
10. Nb5 |
White zeros in on the dark square weaknesses. | ||||
| | |||||
|
10... a6 |
? Black can't afford this move. Better prospects were offered by simply ... 0-0. | ||||
| | |||||
|
11. Nd6+ |
Of course. The idea is not so much just to prevent Black from castling, but to bind Black up with a N on d6 that is hard to eliminate. | ||||
| | |||||
|
11... Ke7 12. c5 |
Here I felt aggression was warranted, because the N would have to move to d5 and could then be attacked by Bc4. | ||||
| | |||||
|
12... Nd5 13. Bc4 b6 |
?? Black can't afford this now. Better was ...Nc7. | ||||
| | |||||
|
14. Bxd5 |
! I calculated that I could open Black's King and win a pawn with threats, and given how quickly White could get the pieces in play Black was in big trouble. | ||||
| | |||||
|
14... exd5 15. Qxd5 |
Threatens mate on f7. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15... Qc7 |
? This loses quickly, but the threat of Ng5 after Black defends f7 was very strong. | ||||
