Annotated by pierre99 (1200): Hi everyone. I don't know who Yakimov is. I don't know if he had been up all night, was tired, or what. All I know is I don't play completely accurately, but neither does he in this game, and white gets an attack that crushes black. Appreciate any comments anyone wishes to make on this one. At first I thought he might try a hyper-modern opening... My standard preference as white, if I can play… |

Annotated by archduke_piccolo (2332): I've always rather enjoyed playing through long games, watching a drama gradually unfold to a conclusion. On the other hand, a long-drawn-out endgame can be a dry affair. So I was rather pleased that this, my first ever 100 move game should be interesting - barring perhaps a short period in the middle - throughout its length. Already unusual. A Modern defence to the King Pawn Opening has… |

Annotated by jotheblackqueen (1200): Hi everyone!
This is a game between Freddy the Master Mater and my buddy Steve. Steve played the same defense against me - The Robatsch - see the game Hidden Traps. In this game Freddy does a pawn push to h6, this tactic of his is becoming very familiar. He has done it to me in several of our games in order to break up my kingside pawn structure. Now, if you have a castled position with a … |

Annotated by dragoneye (1565): Je pousse le pion pour contrer l'éventuelle ligne du fou. Je ne voulais pas jouer Nf3, car cela aurait pu engendrer dxe5, suivi de dxe5 et Qxd1 pour l'échange de dame qui me faisait perdre mon roque. En jouant ce coup, il est clair que je perd un pion. Kf3 aurait probablement été plus efficace. Je ne me suis pas méfié de ce coup, car je croyais le cavalier clouer. Je n'ai pas… |

Annotated by sevenarts (1534): standard opening yet again he prefers to avoid the center-board opening and just frees up his bishop and sets up f7-f5 i protect the free-floating and free up my black bishop to prevent his uncontested move to h6 he goes to g7 instead, bringing the bishop into play and avoiding a piece trade - he has a good attacking position if i forget myself and move that c1 bishop out anytime soon bringing… |

Annotated by judgeman (1200): alrighty, So, this is Me after being kicked out of Southern Chess trying to build up my rating again.
Dude probably doesn't know that I'm actually stronger than my rating shows. I intended to get out one of the fancy schmancy modern openings out, so I began to ready the flanchetto. The 4-move opening again? pah! I wonder how many people actually fall for that... That stops that. intent to… |
