Bg5 { [%eval -0.09] } 5... g6?! { [%eval 0.45] } { A line I like to play, it's not very common and gives White a slight edge if they play right but it gets complicated. } 6. Bb5+ { [%eval 0.29] } 6... Bd7 { [%eval 0.45] } 7. a4 { [%eval 0.22] } 7... Bg7 { [%eval 0.16] } 8. Nc3 { [%eval -0.21] } 8... e6 { [%eval 0.25] } 9. O-O { [%eval 0.43] } 9... O-O { [%eval 0.13] } 10. Ne5 { [%eval 0.14] } { This position perfectly represents the way I like to play. All the minor pieces are involved and attacking, it's quite complicated, one slip and everything falls apart. } 10... a6 { [%eval 0.1] } 11. Bxd7 { [%eval -0.07] } 11... Nbxd7 { [%eval -0.01] } 12.

Qf3 { [%eval -0.58] } { That's the slow Knight route I've got planned. } { [%cal Gf6e8,Ge8c7,Gc7b6,Gb6c4,Gc4b2] } 14... Ne8 { [%eval -0.65] } 15. b3?? { [%eval -4.05] } { Admittedly I was so focused on my plans and the x-ray on the c2 pawn I forgot my Bishop was also attacking. } { [%cal Gc8c3,Gg7c3] } 15... Qc7?? { [%eval -0.56] } 16. Bd2?? { [%eval -4.2] } { All works out well as White defends but the wrong way. } 16... Bxd4 { [%eval -4.15] } { There is a triple attack and a pin on the Knight to the Rook. } { [%csl Gc3][%cal Gd4c3,Gc7c3,Gc8c3] } 17. Ne2 { [%eval -4.09] [%cal Gd4a1] } 17... Bxa1 { [%eval -4.01] } 18. Nf4?? { [%eval -8.55] } { White clearly should have taken but based on the game we played before, all he can do is attack. There is a mating idea with the Knight and Queen in h7 but it's not sound at all. } { [%csl Gh6,Rh7][%cal Gf4h3,Gh3g5,Gf3h6] } 18... Bg7 { [%eval -8.35] } { This controls h6 and shuts down everything White hoped for. Its a slower move but in the position it's a sound idea, I could have taken on c2 and threatened the Bishop but those tactics aren't going anywhere. I'm already winning so I might as well play solidly and convert to a won end game. } { [%csl Gh6][%cal Gc7c2,Gc2d2] } 19. Nh3? { [%eval -9.46] } 19... Nd6 { [%eval -9.43] } 20. Ng5?! { [%eval -9.97] } { Still attempting to go for the Mate idea, which doesn't work anymore. } 20... Qxc2 { [%eval -9.72] } 21. Be1 { [%eval -10.74] } 21... Qf5?! { [%eval -9.47] } { Keeping true to my style and attempting to trade Queens and get my Knight into a more active square. } { [%cal Gf3f5,Gd6f5] } 22. Qg3?! { [%eval -10.1] } { Inaccuracy. Best move was Qe3. } (22. Qe3 d4) 22... Rc6 { [%eval -9.88] } { Defends d6 but also prepares to double on the c file and look for back rank mating ideas. } 23. f4 { [%eval -11.2] } 23... Bh6 { [%eval -9.77] } 24. Qh4 { [%eval -10.62] } 24... Bxg5 { [%eval -10.48] } 25. fxg5 { [%eval -10.49] } 25... Qd3 { [%eval -10.21] } { Eying b3 and keeping in line with f5 where I'll put the Knight to attack the Queen. } 26. Bg3 { [%eval -11.0] } { Gives me another reason to stick the Knight on f5. } 26... Nf5 { [%eval -10.88] } 27. Rxf5?! { [%eval #-12] } { Checkmate is now unavoidable. Best move was Qf4. } 27... Qxf5?! { [%eval -28.86] } 28. Qh6?! { [%eval #-2] } { I really have no idea what White things there is left anymore... Maybe Be5 and Qg7# if I really end up blundering but giving me mate in two doesn't leave me much room to make those mistakes. } 28... Rc1+ { [%eval #-1] } { 0-1 Black wins. } 0-1
