1. d4 |
This is an interesting game with careful moves on both sides. Black had a mate opportunity at move 53, did not see it. Black deserved a win but lost probably because he was "dizzy with success" as russians would put it and made an impulsive mistake at the end. Queen's pawn to d4, my favorite move, leading to Queen's gambit. I enjoy this move because back when I was first learning the basics (very long time ago), I guess I took this as a habit because this opening leads to a closed game with slow maneuvering. In contrast, e4 is a good move but it leads to an open game and at the beginning, I had more chance of giving away material due to forks by knights and bishops. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
1... d5 |
Queen's gambit, as expected. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
2. c4 |
I am not giving away that pawn, after he takes that, I intend to e4, taking control of the center. Later I can capture his pawn by bishop to c4 | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
2... e5 |
Interesting move, I can just go ahead and capture his pawn and then try to defend my isolated pawn at e5. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
3. dxe5 |
Captured and I am 1 pawn ahead in the material. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
3... d4 |
He advances his pawn, trying to control my c3 square. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
4. Nf3 |
Threat on d4 pawn both by Knight and queen | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
4... c5 |
protects it and makes it solid on the board, controls my e3 and c3 squares. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
5. g3 |
Preparing for italian style bishop to g2 | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
5... Bg4 |
Juggling around | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
6. Bg2 |
protects the knight | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
6... Nc6 7. Bf4 |
Wanted to take bishop to the game, controlling the diagonal to the some point and protecting e5 pawn. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
7... Be6 |
Threatens my c4 pawn. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
8. Qb3 |
Take care of that threat and threaten b7 pawn at the same time. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
8... Qd7 |
Protects b7 | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
9. O-O Nge7 |
He is trying to castle but blocking his black bishop is not a good idea if you ask me. Then he cannot move his knight to f6 because i have a freaking pawn there. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
10. Na3 |
connecting the rooks, mobilizing the horsy troops, planning on visiting b5 and forking with c7 if the opportunity represents itself :) | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
10... a6 |
He is preventing me horsy from coming to b5 I see :) In our last match, I did that and forked his rook and king. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
11. Qa4 |
Now that he protects his pawn, i try to make my queen useful. Queen is "vezir" in turkish, which means like prime minister. Knight is "at", meaning horse, rook is "kale" which means castle, and king is "sah" which is persian king. Instead of bishop, we use "fil" which means elephant :) Really... | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
11... Ng6 |
Fine move, attacking my "elephant" | |||||||
