Shropshire 2 v Wood Green MM 2
Chirag Guta (1922) vs. Charles L Higgie (1945)
Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): Starts conventionally enough. I prevent e2-e4. This is the most commonly played move. I usually play this. Perfectly playable, but Nc3 is more common. I completely my fianchetto. And he starts his. Why not invite a Benoni structure? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benoni_Defense He has ruled out the sharpest lines for white and if his d4 pawn can be induced to advance to d5 then his Bishop on g2…

Carlsen-World Team, New York City 2010
Magnus Carlsen (2826) vs. World Team
Annotated by eden8 (1200): 'The challenge of pitting yourself and your skills against every other person on the planet may be many people's worst nightmare... but for Magnus Carlsen, it's a dream.' Or, at least, it was a dream. On 10 September 2010, in the penthouse of the Copper Square Hotel in New York City, 19-year-old Carlsen took on an online team of global chess players led by three grandmasters, these being…

Kidlington Minor (U145) Rd 4
Darrell Watson (1656) vs. Robert Jacobs (1752)
Annotated by rjacobs (1690): A really exciting game this one, decided when we were both approaching our last 5 minutes... Enjoy! Played to put me off... 3. Nc3 is normal but there's nothing wrong with this. The fianchetto variation has caused me problems in the past and sets the King's Indian player a whole set of different challenges from other variations. Going into a sort of Benoni, always a choice for the KI…

Annotated by kingshunt (2094): Here is one of my best game this time its against a strong chess player. This is the 1st time I annotate my games. My first encounter with this opponent I'm handling white pieces and i'm lost. usually all my victories coming from black pieces..So guys all any comments or opinion, I'm open for any criticism. White open d4, on my opinion he is a positional player. which in contrast with me I'm…

43rd GK tournament
freakio (1342) vs. wotanchess (1781)
Annotated by skyeman (2160): You can be more adventurous here. 5.e4 is normal. It's usually a good plan to remove your opponent's centre pawns if you can keep your own at the same time. Here, it gives more scope to his white-squared bishop, so Black is happy to exchange. Not a good idea - you are giving up a developed piece, whereas Black is just replacing one developed piece by another. You could have played…
