Semi-Slav Defense: Other variations
  1. Mennonite (2) 2...e6 is quite the surprise already. Not that it's unfamiliar territory or anything
  2. Mennonite (5) ok, just a transposition
  3. shamdi i think he expacted exchange slav
  4. Mennonite (6) today's album: Air - Moon Safari
  5. Red_Pandaz never a fan of trying to hold onto that pawn
  6. Red_Pandaz but I'll trust shamdi knows what he's doing
  7. Mennonite (10) finally convinced myself a4 is indeed premature here
  8. Mennonite (10) I think now is the time
  9. Mennonite (11) I was planning on meeting Nd7 with 12.f4 but as committal as it is, better make sure now
  10. wizzywop Go Mennonite!
  11. Mennonite (11) Ng4 is also a plausible idea too, and maybe even best. does introduce long diagonal ideas, and e3 isn't a bad square for the knight
  12. Mennonite (11) having the f file open with no knight on the board and the LSB hitting granite isn't all that useful IMO
  13. MrScribbles (11...Nd7) Any way to entomb black's LSB here? I don't quite see it
  14. Mennonite (12) 13.e5 is the obvious candidate move. though I'm not entirely satisfied with how I'd respond to ...b4
  15. Mennonite (12) ok let's be honest, i'm going to almost certainly end up playing it, might as well not sink more time into it
  16. Mennonite (13) maybe ...b4 Qe2?
  17. Feet_Barbie (13.e5) go mennonite
  18. Feet_Barbie (13.e5) rock solid
  19. Silkthewanderer Go Menno
  20. MrScribbles (13.e5) As white I would really like to trade DSBs
  21. Silkthewanderer This looks nice for White. It looks a bit like a better version of the Slav gambit
  22. Red_Pandaz would feel pretty comfortable as black too tho
  23. Mennonite (13) 14.axb5 cxb5 15.Rxa7 Bxg2 16.Kxg2 Qb6 and I've regained my pawn at the cost of any initiative.
  24. Mennonite (13) but I may have to go in for that anyway, I don't want to allow a queenside pawn stampede after all.
  25. Mennonite (13) there's no tactical traps in that line, right?
  26. Red_Pandaz ^why I wanted a5 instead as black
  27. Red_Pandaz oh but wait that just allows axb anyways
  28. Mennonite (14) I have to at least look at Bxb7 Rxb7 Qf3 too
  29. wizzywop This feels like its not good for white
  30. wizzywop or as good
  31. Mennonite (16) he's threatening ...Na4
  32. Mennonite (16) maybe if the queen was on f3? 17.Qf3 Na4 18.Rxe7 Qxe7 19.Nf6+... does that do anything?
  33. Feet_Barbie (16...Nb6) white s pawns were perfect but the pieces so misplaced for an attack
  34. Mennonite (16) either way though the queen is useful on f3... shields king, covers c3, etc.
  35. Mennonite (16) i'm also really falling behind on the clock
  36. Mennonite (17) 17...Na4 18.Rxe7 Qxe7 19.Nf6+ but what if he declines with Kh8?
  37. Mennonite (17) also is Bh6 an idea? probably not
  38. wizzywop Ra8 is welcomed
  39. Mennonite (17) 18.Rxe7 Qxe7 19.Nf6+ and gxf6 loses. But I just can't yet see a way forward after Kh8.
  40. wizzywop What about Nh6+, probably no way
  41. Mennonite (17) I feel like there just has to be something here
  42. Red_Pandaz so Kh8 and what's the follow up
  43. Mennonite (19) I'm thinking I can meet Kh8 with Qf4.
  44. Red_Pandaz Qf4 is illegal I assume he means Qd5 which just gets gxf6
  45. Red_Pandaz Qf5*
  46. Mennonite (19) mmmm no maybe not
  47. Red_Pandaz or wrong square I'm thinking lol
  48. Mennonite (19) perhaps Bg5.
  49. topspin15 sacrifice first, calcuate later
  50. Red_Pandaz I confused Qf and Qh hah
  51. Zubenelgenubi Go Mennonite!
  52. Mennonite (20) after h6 Qh5 looks good
  53. Red_Pandaz maybe black has to give back the exchange
  54. Red_Pandaz with Rg8
  55. Mennonite (20) I went in for the line not clearly seeing a way through, but my team needs a win, and other lines would have everything
  56. Mennonite (20) traded off and me groveling in a miserable endgame
  57. wizzywop Rg8 Qh5?
  58. topspin15 or Nxh7
  59. Mennonite (20) 20...Nd5 21. Nxh7 f6 22.Qh5 seems ok
  60. casual921 Q e4 b nice or h4 I'm looking
  61. wizzywop Nd5 Nxh7 f6 Qh5 Kg8
  62. Mennonite (20) better refresh just to make sure there wasn't a site update and it's not my move
  63. jcarmody (20.Bg5) That happened to me once. I was surprised to see my opponent in the spectator chat!
  64. Mennonite (20) 20...gxf6 21.Bxf6+ Qxf6 might not actually be that easy for me to win practically speaking
  65. Mennonite (20) the knight would be able to clamp down the center, and he'd have a lot of material for the queen.
  66. Mennonite (20) well, I'd probably capture with the queen, not the e pawn
  67. MrScribbles (20.Bg5) Very fun stuff here
  68. wizzywop I don't see any possibilities besides Nd5 or Qxf6
  69. wizzywop If you wait, Qh5
  70. MrScribbles (20.Bg5) I have no idea if the attack works but I love it
  71. Mennonite (20) assuming he does play into that line, it's going to be an endgame slog I'll need to mentally reset for.
  72. wizzywop I meant gxf6, not Qxf6
  73. Mennonite (20) (he is going to move, right?)
  74. casual921 That's a tough situation for black, critical choice ahead.
  75. jcarmody (20...Qd8) whew
  76. wizzywop Qh5 wins right?
  77. Mennonite (20) 21.Nxh7 runs into ...Qd5.
  78. wizzywop 23. Bg5+
  79. Mennonite (22) still gotta watch for trickiness, like exf6?? Qd5+
  80. MrScribbles (24...Qd5+) love a good spite check
  81. wizzywop :)
  82. MrScribbles (25.Kg1) Qg2+!
  83. MrScribbles gg
  84. wizzywop gg
  85. Zubenelgenubi gg
  86. casual921 gg
  87. MrScribbles Mennonite saw red in this game
  88. guitarspider gg
  89. Mennonite i'm trying to play more aggressively this season
  90. Mennonite and the match situation called for it
  91. Mennonite but it's disorienting to my normal hyper solid instincts haha
