1. e4	It is a team-match, I'm usually play very bad in it, not sure why.



1... e5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. Nxe5 d6 4. Nf3 Nxe4 5. d4 Be7 6. d5	triing to play aggressive, not allow horse to go c6 immidiately



6... O-O 7. Bd3 Nf6 8. c4	developed bishop, ready to castle, defending strong pawn d5



8... Bg4 9. O-O c6 10. Nc3 Nbd7	horse developed to d7



11. Ne4	think now it is bad I allowed him to tie my horse f3..



11... Ne5 12. Be2 Nxe4 13. Nxe5	now if he takes my horse I'll take bishop g4, if he exchanges bishop first my queen will attack his horse. So he wins nothing for now



13... Bf5 14. Ng4 Re8 15. Ne3	atacking bishop f5



15... Bg6 16. Bd3	yes horse e4 isn't in his own home, better he go



16... Bg5 17. f4	not sure why I didn't continue 17. f3 ..maybe it is stronger

17... Bh4 18. g4	going to catch bishop by g5
	3 comments ruachessnut2 (1200) on 01-Oct-07: Wrong bishop! 18. f5 wins the light bishop. archduke_piccolo (2355) on 02-Oct-07: Interesting idea of White's. Almost a pity there is a far better move available... sanyaya1984 (1449) on 13-Nov-07: you really right, see it now, thanks!


18... h6 19. Ng2 cxd5 20. cxd5 Bf6 21. Re1 Qb6+	b2 is on troubles



22. Ne3 Bh7 23. Rb1 a5 24. Kg2 Bd4 25. Nc4 Qc5 26. f5	no way to defend d5
	2 comments archduke_piccolo (2355) on 02-Oct-07: The game gets fearsomely complicated during this sequence. It might be interesting to "space it out" a bit. If one doesn't have anything concrete to say just yet, a skeleton comment like (!?) gives space for others to make suggestions without having to write in huge paragraphs. Just a thought... sanyaya1984 (1449) on 13-Nov-07: I got you. The matter is you can't move it step by step as I did when made comments. I'm now in same position as game is too old and not available more, will keep it in mind next time and will comment almost every move.


26... Qxd5 27. Bxe4 Rxe4 28. Kf1	I'm not ok
	3 comments ruachessnut2 (1200) on 01-Oct-07: Try 28. Rxe4 Qxe4 to save the knight. 29. Nd2 archduke_piccolo (2355) on 02-Oct-07: Even then, White's case is pretty parlous... sanyaya1984 (1449) on 13-Nov-07: Dear ruachessnut2, you see in your variant rook b1 comes on fire.. 28. Rxe4 Qxe4 + 29. somewhere Qxb1


28... Qxc4+ 29. Kg2 Rxe1 30. Qxe1 Qd5+ 31. Kh3 Qf3+ 32. Qg3 Qxg3+ 33. Kxg3 Be5+ 34. Bf4 Bxf4+ 35. Kxf4 Rd8 36. Ke4 g6 37. Kd5 gxf5 38. gxf5 Bxf5 39. Rc1 Be6+ 40. Ke4 Bxa2 41. Ra1 Re8+ 42. Kd4 Be6 43. Rxa5 Rc8 44. Rb5 Rc2 45. h4 Rh2 46. Rxb7 Rxh4+ 47. Kc3 f5 48. b4 f4 49. Kd3 f3 50. Ke3 Rh3 51. Rb6 Bg4 52. Rxd6 Rh2 53. Rg6+	he played end-game not strong
	1 comment archduke_piccolo (2355) on 02-Oct-07: 31...Bxf5! is the killer move: 32.gxf5 Qxf5ch 33.Kg2 Qxb1 wins the rook; or 32.Ra1 Qf3ch 33.Qg3 Bxg4ch 34.Kh4 Bf6ch 35.Bg5 and either capture gives mate.*** After this miss, Black is going great guns in the early endgame but seems latterly to have lost the plot. Instead of 47...f5? (apart from anything else, this pawn is usefully employed guarding the bishop, and interrupts the action of White's rook along the 7th rank), I much prefer 47...Rc4ch 48.Kd3 h5 when Black already has a big lead in the pawn race: 49.b3 Rg5 (threatening 50...Bxb3! 51.Rxb3 Rg3ch 52.Kc4 Rxb3 with a simple win) 50.b4 h4 and the h-pawn is almost unstoppable already.


53... Kh7 54. Rxg4 f2 55. Rf4 Kg6 56. b5 Rh5	he forces exchange.. :( I thought it will be better
	1 comment archduke_piccolo (2355) on 02-Oct-07: Another idea to secure a draw was 55...Rh4! 56.Rxf2 Rxb4 (a very unusual skewer!). In any case, Black's winning chances are already close to nil...


57. Rxf2 Rxb5 58. Kf4 h5 59. Rg2+ Kh6 60. Kg3 Rb4 61. Kh3 Rf4 62. Rg1 h4 63. Rg4 Rxg4 64. Kxg4 Kg6 65. Kxh4	as I looked he had no chances to lead his pawn to 1st rank
