Annotated by cleanswide (1200): HI guys, this is another annotation by me, this was played with my friend, Luke. He's okay, except for some dumb mistakes he make. Whenever I have time, I send my knights up, because I think there might come a time when those pushed knights would be useful. Unfortunately, that knight, I decided, was going to have a really bad day. As you can see, knight and the bishop has been traded… |

Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): This is a training game with me and a new player to my over-the-board club! We live in neighbouring villages! I am annotating it to help him learn! e3 is not a bad opening move. It makes it hard for black to attack f2, and prepares to develop the Bf1. This is not a bad follow-up either. I take the centre. He continues to develop - this is the logical follow-up to his previous move. I protect the … |

Annotated by rafias (2066): Very odd opening Black is trying to get full control of the center Finally white starts challenging black for the center black controls the dark squares to compensate for the weak dark square bishop Black threatens to remove the defender of d3 It is very dangerous to advance the castle pawns. The King position could be threatened. A lesson: Never atack your… |

Annotated by brunson (1200): I'm not real familiar with playing against an E3 opening. I was taught that I needed to be more aggressive in my first moves, so this is "out of my book". I just play for control of the center like I was brought up. "Logical Chess, Move by Move" by Iving Chernev. Unsure whether I should respond with e6 or d6 I flip a coin. Clearly the wrong choice. I want to attack his queen, but I have to… |

Annotated by byakuugan3 (1200): I played White in this Mini-Tournament game. I think it is an instructive example of how to have good piece coordination in the middlegame. I don't think this is the sharpest move against e3, since White can transpose into some reversed defenses with an extra tempo, such as 2...c4 transposes to a reversed Sicilian where White has the extra tempo e3. Against any passive move by White, Black… |

Annotated by gambitricky (1200): A very pesimistic move, here is only e4 appropriate. Maybe my pawn structure will not be very stable but I'll get a quick development with tempo Didnt wonnt to play c5 immediately since Nb3 with d3 and c4 undermines my center very easy I know this is not the best place for my bishop but I wannted to prevent 5.d3 with 5....ed3: 6.Bd3: Bc3: and a double pawn ? Iam not sure what was the idea,… |

Annotated by eldude (783): My old start out. Expected e6 but o well. Move queen out for 2 possible moves: 4-move-checkmate OR black g6 then take pond, check him, and take rook. Black doesnt do what I was hoping for. Allows development and protects e5. Allows development and stops e5 pond from moving foward. Takes knight and doubles the pond. A simple block but think I would have been better moving my knight to c3 or … |

Annotated by deejie (1233): ? Interesting - in for an easy ride? ? places a pawn which is immediately threatened! strong move; attacks bishop, develops centre, wins pawn preps 0-0-0; secures B on g4 wins space, advances centre, prevents White's black bishop from doing anything... premature?
Better to prevent... strong attack on pawn cover after 0-0-0 exposes g pawn. spotted or not! ?? wastes time in attack -… |
