1. c4 |
Mon Capitan asked me to annotate a few games for the team with the reason why I made the move I did. The notes have been made as the game progressed, rather than after.(although I have tidied them up a bit at the end) They are basically the short term notes I leave for myself. c4 - Transpositional opening. Black can put a stamp on what that is straight away. |

1... e5 |
My standard reply to c4. Mainly because I don't like playing queen's gambit as black. |
| | |
|
2. g3 |
Setting up for Bg2, Nf3, O-O. A very strong castled position from frontal assault |
| | |
|
2... Nf6 |
Centre control, setting up for kingside castle |
| | |
|
3. Bg2 Bc5 |
Centre control, allows castleing |
| | |
|
4. d3 |
??? Allows B out... |

4... Nc6 |
Centre control |
| | |
|
5. Nf3 O-O |
May as well. Have 3 well developed pieces to 2 off to the side |
| | |
|
6. O-O d5 |
Long term plan is to open and control c, d or e and attack castle from behind the pawns |
| | |
|
7. Bg5 |
Pin the N. Leads to no material advantage. Depending on how I disarm it, it may weaken my castle |
| | |
|
7... dxc4 |
open d |
| | |
|
8. dxc4 Qxd1 |
Simplify by exchanging Q. Still have better development. Ng4 is likely to make the R return to f1, keeping d up for grabs in line with my long term plan. |
| | |
|
9. Rxd1 Ng4 |
If i now do h6, the bishop will retreat now, rather than have the option of an exchange which leaves me with a weakened castle and doubled up pawns. I am expecting Rf1 to protect f2 and in turn e3 |
| | |
|
10. Rf1 h6 |
Makes the B retreat, ceding more centre control. Gets me the escape hole from the castle now, so I can keep tempo in the end game. Also the escape hole is on a white square, and white's white bishop is likely to be stuck on g2 for a while |
| | |
|
11. Bd2 e4 |
N on f3 has safe squares at e1 - N takes pinned pawn on f2 setting up a discovered check (Nd1 ,Nxb2) If RxNf2 then fork with e3. at h4 - g5 13 Bxe4 gxh4 Material advantage for me, small breach in whites castle, but probably still have to go around the back |
| | |
|
12. Ne1 Nxf2 13. Rxf2 e3 14. Bc3 |
I won't pull punches. This is just BAD. 14 Bxe3 Bxe3 (bishop for a pawn), would have minimised the damage. This leads 14.... exf2 (up a rook) 15 Kh1 or f1 fxe1=whatever as the B on c3 will take it.(up a knight) |
| | |
|
14... exf2+ 15. Kf1 fxe1=Q+ 16. Bxe1 Ne5 |
c4 unprotected so white will use a move to protect it. Ng4 next to attack h2, which he can't protect as easily. |
