Spectator room
- TheVacuousRom
8. Nc3 seems odd to me, preventing c3 or c4 in the future - TheVacuousRom
I still feel like white's knight would be better on g3 than c3 but maybe they've studied something i havent - bjfletcher
(11) Go @CarlosMagnussen! - TheVacuousRom
in retrospect Nd5 was not great - I was thinking that after Nxd5 Qxd5 I would be able to mobilize the queen to the kingside but not after - TheVacuousRom
c4 - FM juancruzariasTDF
Super solid position for Black. exd5 keeps it symmetrical, cxd5 is perhaps more ambitious, though the minority attack doesn't look promising - TheVacuousRom
cx leads to a kinda bad version of carlsbad where white is already ahead in their plan - FM juancruzariasTDF
after exd I don't see White's way forward - FM juancruzariasTDF
but maybe Black is a bit passive there too - TheVacuousRom
ex seems like the best option. My queen has options to go to d6 or challenge the white queen on the diagonal. - TheVacuousRom
it weakens f5 but what can i do at this point - TheVacuousRom
I think bringing my queen to f3 makes most sense - TheVacuousRom
Ng6 also makes a lot of sense - CarlosMagnussen
now it's probably even more annoying... - TheVacuousRom
I was planning to play 19... Be7 and for some reason i thought i had already played it - CarlosMagnussen
ouch, that hurts - TheVacuousRom
yeah pretty dumb, but what can you do - TheVacuousRom
very well played - CarlosMagnussen
that idea with attack on h7 was probably too optimistic - TheVacuousRom
Yeah - TheVacuousRom
In those lines you really want to strike in the center - TheVacuousRom
8. Nc3 seemed like an innacuracy to me for that reason - TheVacuousRom
Normally the knight goes to g3 - CarlosMagnussen
I'm kinda surprised that I had still slight edge, because there were moves that in retrospect didn't do anything - CarlosMagnussen
8. Nc3 is Gajewski's idea - TheVacuousRom
The computer often gives a slight edge to white due to space I guess but concretely there isn't much unless I blunder - TheVacuousRom
ah interesting. So what's the point of Nc3? - TheVacuousRom
I figured it might be an idea you studied that I didn,t know - CarlosMagnussen
yeah, I didn't actually study the idea, just move order :-D - TheVacuousRom
An easier way for white to gain an attack is to play for c4 and eventually d5 - TheVacuousRom
and bust open everything - TheVacuousRom
After I played Nd5 we deviated from the typical knox structure though - CarlosMagnussen
he says the idea behind Nc3 is keeping an eye on d5... - TheVacuousRom
Interesting, I'll look into it maybe. Surely there's some nuance im missing, but NG3 + c4 also covers d5 pretty well i thought - TheVacuousRom
