Annotated chess games with this chess opening:
chess opening #62217 (5)Malpas & Oswestry 1 v Wallasey 4 Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): In this game black plays passively and pays the price. Immediately before the game I had demonstrated my win against David Jameson. I was wondering how long he would repeat moves for!
http://gameknot.com/annotation.pl/colwyn-bay-v-malpas-oswestry-chester-league?gm=62100 This is different! Jameson had taken on c4 instead. Bd6 is very unusual though - it normally goes to e7 or b4 here. My …Charles L Higgie vs. Vivian Oldham |
chess opening #62588 (19)That didn't take long! Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): In this game, I came straight from teaching to the chess match, arriving 20 minutes late. Thankfully I still managed to win! Prior to this game, I had had a string of games where I had played badly. I was delighted to get back to playing something more like what I am capable of! So it's a Queen's Gambit. Slav variation. I avoid the Slav Gambit. He develops. And we reach the usual position in the …Charles L Higgie vs. Frank Salt |

chess opening #62100 (6)Colwyn Bay v Malpas & Oswestry, Chester League Annotated by charleshiggie (2222): I think this may have been my third highest scalp (I have beaten two players graded over 200 - Richard Britain and Peter Large - although to be fair both those players have beaten me several times too!). So it starts conventionally. For some reason I was expecting a Benoni or King's Indian. So I play the Queen's Gambit. He plays the Slav Defence. I avoid the Slav Gambit (3. Nc3 e5) even though it …Charles L Higgie vs. David Jameson |
chess opening #27137 (4)Meran Mayhem Annotated by sarasani (1868): Hi everyone, this game was part of a training match for an upcoming tournament. Played O.T.B., without use of a Game DB or openings book.
The Slav Defence, my opponent's favourite reply against 1.d4.
The Meran complex contains a large number of variations. The Meran variation of the Semi-Slav Defense is reached when after 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 black plays 4...e6.
The most…Sarasani vs. Rick |

chess opening #48628 (18)Anand's Immortal Annotated by chess_writer (1200): Magnus Carlsen has described this game as "A Game for the Ages". Watch the world champion sacrifice a rook and demolish World number 2 Levon Aronian in just 23 moves.
My annotations begin where the action begins i.e. on Move 11.

chess opening #13137 (10)Botvinnik Game #4: Underpromotions are always fun Annotated by raskerino (1841): I haven't annotated a game in the botvinnik since my first three annotations, so while this will be similiar to the game Van Wely-Smeets (as these game are the same until move 19). The botvinnik may be analyzed to death, but to the uninitiated, such as I (though I'll do my best), it's wonderously absurd in it's tactical spectrum. I'll start annotating at move 7. And we enter the…GM Topalov vs. GM Kramnik |
