Nimzo-Indian Defense: Other variations
1
  1. Board_13 Ng4 h3 Bxf3 Qxf3 Qh2++
  2. Showboater What about Bishop sac followed by ng5+ though?
  3. Board_13 allows Bxh7 Kxh7 Ng5+
  4. Showboater subtle @board_13, subtle. [12]
  5. Showboater Nc3 might have been better there?
  6. Showboater Nc6*
  7. Showboater hi @jonathancoffin!
  8. Board_13 trying to get the knight out to attack e5
  9. Board_13 mucking about with my Q too much
  10. Board_13 i liked that bishop but it gets rid of his dangerous pair
  11. Board_13 will he triple on the d file?
  12. JonathanCoffin Hi! Also I like blacks knight in this game but I’m not sure what to do about the backwards pawn
  13. Board_13 not sure this works because Be5 at some point
  14. Board_13 NxQ saves if Be5
  15. Showboater hmm
  16. Showboater has to be nd4, right?
  17. Showboater [23]
  18. Showboater loses the c pawn
  19. Showboater oh, i'm talking to myeself.
  20. Board_13 i think this drops a pawn but gotta stay alive
  21. JonathanCoffin Staying alive is important
  22. Showboater annoying that white's pieces coordinate to protect back rank via d1
  23. Showboater e5?
  24. JonathanCoffin Qe5 any good?
  25. Showboater Rd2...?
  26. Showboater was looking at e5 to win the c4 pawn, but Qd7...?
  27. Showboater e5 Qd7 Qc4?
  28. Board_13 going to aim for the b pawn ideally
  29. Showboater think i'd have played b4 there if i'd been white. No idea if that's right though! [28]
  30. Showboater and there...[29]
  31. Showboater fancy black to at least draw this now
  32. Showboater (30)
  33. Board_13 who knows...
  34. Showboater white not bringing his king in quickly enough here, for me.
  35. Board_13 we should have done those pawn endgames...
  36. Showboater has to be Qe3 now
  37. Showboater @board_13 this isn't covered in lesson 1 i'm afraid...
  38. Showboater a5 the best try? 35
  39. Showboater come on JC, give us some help
  40. JonathanCoffin I’m checking in and out from the gym give me a break!
  41. Showboater haha
  42. Showboater priorities!
  43. Showboater hmm, don't like the look of this now.
  44. JonathanCoffin Looks scary
  45. Showboater don't think a5 is good now [36] after bxa kxa kd4
  46. JonathanCoffin Yeah maybe a6 and try to prevent him from coming in
  47. JonathanCoffin A5 it is
  48. JonathanCoffin Maybe the passed pawn is close enough to the rest where it’s more tricky
  49. JonathanCoffin Can’t take here though
  50. JonathanCoffin Dance king side to side?
  51. JonathanCoffin Oh clever
  52. Showboater b5?
  53. Showboater g5*
  54. JonathanCoffin Yeah
  55. Showboater one day my chess skills will improve to the point where i can accurately describe the coordinates even when i'm looking at black's side.
  56. JonathanCoffin What Elo is that? I’m not there yet either
  57. Showboater g5 was just winning, right?
  58. Showboater still is, i think
  59. Showboater GG
  60. JonathanCoffin Gg
  61. Showboater very strong from white to finish that off.
  62. Showboater bad luck @board_13
  63. Board_13 gg areeckx
  64. Board_13 squandered an early adv i think with those queen moves
  65. areeckx very well played
  66. areeckx tell Tomato latejoin
  67. areeckx which move number?
  68. areeckx oops
  69. Board_13 ive been playing Qc7 early in sicilian games but that was a mistake in this position because it rendered d6 difficult
  70. areeckx the NG4 you were talking about it's no longer in chat for some reason
  71. areeckx or then you said Nc6*
  72. areeckx you really took care of my threats along the g7 square
  73. areeckx I ended up a pawn, I actually didn't calculate that lmao
  74. Board_13 not well enough!
  75. areeckx just kept putting threats in but I knew that I would have the d-file
  76. Board_13 Ng4 allowed the bishop sac on h7
  77. areeckx you kept playing the strongest responses, imo
  78. areeckx on what move number?
  79. Board_13 the Q protecting the back rank was annoying!
  80. areeckx heh stockfish doesn't like 35. Ke3
  81. areeckx I gues h5 guarantees my pawns to have control on the kingside
  82. Board_13 10. Ng4? allows Bxh7+ because if KxB then Kg5+ exposing my knight to your Q
  83. areeckx but I had to keep thinking about your king and not letting you get a passed pawn and a king in front of it
  84. areeckx there's still a white pawn on d4 though after 10. ... Ng4
  85. areeckx oh xh7
  86. areeckx yes I had calculated that
  87. areeckx would win a piece
  88. areeckx and I didn't see but I wanted to take care of the situation in the center
  89. Board_13 i wanted Ng4 h3 BxNf3 QxN Qxh2 mate but you saw that
  90. areeckx Bxh7 didn't look like I had a guaranteed piece
  91. Board_13 take the piece next time i reckon and the centre will take care of itself.
  92. areeckx you can just play Kh8
  93. areeckx then I need to play Qd3 to protect it
  94. areeckx or move bishop back
  95. Board_13 yeah be greedy and have a pawn
  96. Board_13 bit of a bullet mistake that one on my part
  97. areeckx yeah you still have the mate threat I have to deal with after Kh8
  98. areeckx can't think of how to prevent black from winning a piece
  99. Board_13 yes
  100. areeckx and actually don't think I can prevent mate
  101. areeckx and Bxh7
  102. Board_13 d5 the computer says
  103. Board_13 i didnt see that
  104. areeckx and if Kxh7 then I'm up in material still
  105. areeckx +1.2 according to stockfish
  106. Showboater for what it's worth, i was just looking at d5. it's a long positional line
  107. Showboater bxh7 was the tactic
  108. areeckx I didn't think it was clear enough for me to calculate an advantage
  109. areeckx with d5
  110. Board_13 I would recommend something other than Bd2 at the start. wastes a move and you cant use the bishop to pini the knight on f3 later
  111. areeckx right but I have started playing a lot safer with the opening lately and it's working out better
  112. Showboater yeah i think d5 is just strong because it opens up the board and leaves your two bishops bearing down on the king
  113. areeckx and if BxN then my queenside pawn structure is ruined
  114. Showboater but yeah, it's much more subtle
  115. Board_13 Bd2 is bad though. Qc2 is the move.
  116. areeckx I could play Qb3 but then I commit to the queenside
  117. areeckx Bd2 is fine
  118. areeckx it's in theory
  119. areeckx Qc2 works but then I still lack choices with my queen
  120. Board_13 with Bd2 black equalises on move 4
  121. areeckx https://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-openings/nimzo-indian-4-bd2
  122. sgis Gg
  123. areeckx I'm fine with equalization I don't want to risk anything early on
  124. areeckx especially since I tend to lose games if I get too fierce early on
  125. areeckx https://i.imgur.com/7WkHf62.png
  126. Board_13 one last go on Bd2... look at opening explorer masters games - 405 games Bd2 23k e3 22.5k Qc2
  127. areeckx the only titled player weighing in on the situation doesn't think it's bad
  128. Board_13 anyway - you played great
  129. areeckx right but like I said
  130. areeckx I'm not a master
  131. areeckx I'm 1400 lol
  132. Board_13 ;)
  133. areeckx better safe than sorry
  134. areeckx I thought of doing some tricks with the bishop like pins or whatever but it all just looked too crazy for my taste
  135. Board_13 i wont be playing Qc7 again!
  136. areeckx and I have almost never done well with early pins like that on this opening
  137. areeckx heh yeah maybe in a sicilian
  138. areeckx there were a lot of good things about your play
  139. areeckx obviously stockfish and stronger players will point out weak moves
  140. Board_13 lots of threats but they went nowhere
  141. areeckx but to be honest you played really well and I had to struggle
  142. areeckx and at the end of the day that's what chess is all about
  143. areeckx and I think this is my first win in this season lmao
  144. Board_13 from 13 Qg4 i thought i was in bother!
  145. areeckx I've been playing too wild in the earlier rounds
  146. areeckx yeah I had your threat covered and the pawn on e5 really saved the day
  147. areeckx everything was centered around trying to clear the pawn out of the way with tempo
  148. Board_13 i could have saved it with 25... e5
  149. areeckx also
  150. areeckx thank you for using your clock
  151. Board_13 i looked at that briefly but thought it enabled you to get the queen in somehow
  152. Board_13 should have spent longer
  153. areeckx the past few times I've had a win in a game with this time control was most likely because my opponent didn't think long enough
  154. areeckx nah you used almost all your time
  155. areeckx I don't know why stockfish wants 26. Qg3
  156. areeckx after 35
  157. areeckx oh I guess pinning
  158. areeckx (now you see why I need time to think? lmao)
  159. Board_13 i just wanted to make ok moves around there and hope you slipped
  160. areeckx heh well I did make a few fast moves with those pawns but it looked safe
  161. Board_13 i thought that us lowly board 6s dont often get to fancy pawn endgames
  162. areeckx was just solidifying and waiting for an advantage while I got my king and pawns positioned
  163. areeckx lol
  164. areeckx yeah and it was a queen and pawn endgame kinda rare
  165. Board_13 was hoping you'd be slow to get the king out. made it just in time
  166. areeckx they are usually traded off
  167. areeckx after 35 it's still saying a slight advantage for white. I have the rook on the d-file which is probably worth more than the pawn advantage
  168. areeckx errr after e5
  169. areeckx after its 32. g3 now saying even 0 so who knows
  170. areeckx but that's stockfish we wouldn't have played the way it does lmao\
  171. Board_13 correct!
  172. areeckx I try to think of human moves first
  173. Board_13 stockfish is pretty good at endgames
  174. areeckx and one piece of advice is to not hope that your opponent makes a mistake
  175. areeckx I try to find all the best moves for my opponent and then I calculate if they work out better for one side or equal
  176. Board_13 you can always hope. just dont make bad moves and hope!
  177. areeckx but that takes experience and of course I am not strong enough to calculate too far and judge as accurately as a more experienced opponent
  178. areeckx lol well I never rely on hope. pure, cold calculation baby! XD
  179. Board_13 enjoy the rest of halloween
  180. Board_13 thanks for the game
  181. areeckx you too
