Four Knights Game: Scotch Variation Accepted
  1. runken_brunflo he did something completely different, a line he hasnt played in ages!
  2. gary0892 (6.Qxd4) Normally play Bc4 move 4 rather than d4.
  3. gary0892 (6.Qxd4) Normally happy to allow the centre fork trick and know it well but a bit concerned of prep in those lines
  4. MilsBees Go Gary!
  5. runken_brunflo I cant make out if im doing good or if its really equal but I dont think he is ahead right now
  6. runken_brunflo im thinking about a fun line here with Bd4...
  7. runken_brunflo i hope he takes c7 now, we'll see ...
  8. runken_brunflo damn it
  9. sgis Goooo runken
  10. Haspelknecht (15) go runken!
  11. sgis Ufff that looks tough
  12. runken_brunflo My idea is that he might make a mistake now
  13. runken_brunflo i think it worked I see Nf2 now...
  14. runken_brunflo I think im being super lucky here because throwing the horse in there was a hail marry
  15. runken_brunflo here i calculated that his bishop will be trapped... if he takes f8 after i take d3 he should lose or atleast equal material
  16. runken_brunflo right?? after f8 Be2 and now e8 is hanging together with f8?? im not sure but this is my calculation
  17. runken_brunflo I think his rook is in trouble also because the entire g1-d1 will be consumed by my bishops
  18. runken_brunflo d2 wont work because of e3 pin
  19. runken_brunflo i think its working team, not sure though, because now I want to protect and attack e8 right, i think Be3+ is good after
  20. runken_brunflo thinking Be3+ Kb1 forced and then perhaps defending the bishop on e2 again with d2??
  21. runken_brunflo not the most active rooks then if g1?? Alex??
  22. runken_brunflo dont understand the move at all, there is no threat on e1 right? because of Be3 and then the rook is trapped... I think I will pawn storm
  23. runken_brunflo Strange game, I like my 4v3 pawn structure though and that his rooks are inside of a drawer, but still not sure im winning
  24. runken_brunflo didnt get that either because a4 is protected
  25. runken_brunflo if xc3 i think i do Rc6, would be nice to come up with the rook to 4th row
  26. runken_brunflo my calculation now is like this: Rc6 Bc5 f2?
  27. runken_brunflo or better, xc4 opening up the B file
  28. runken_brunflo I like that, the bishop CANNOT defend against b6 alone
  29. runken_brunflo Rc7 bishop goes somewhere and B7+ Ka1 Bc3#???
  30. runken_brunflo well i didnt see that
  31. runken_brunflo Wow move 30 was completely equal gary
  32. runken_brunflo it was a 1 move blunder
  33. runken_brunflo I was sure u went a3
  34. gary0892 Yeah I see
  35. gary0892 Silly of me really
  36. runken_brunflo U know I prepped against italian variation vs u for like a day
  37. runken_brunflo and then u play scotch and my prep goes out the window
  38. gary0892 Yeah I changed my mind when you said before the game I think it will be interesting
  39. gary0892 I thought hmmm he must know something
  40. runken_brunflo no way haha i shouldnt have said anything
  41. runken_brunflo I prepped until move 17
  42. runken_brunflo i should be silent
  43. runken_brunflo I had no idea b6 was a blunder though
  44. gary0892 Yeah I didn't have as many games to prepare off you for so was a bit concerned about that
  45. gary0892 I knew you wouldn't have looked at the scotch
  46. runken_brunflo Yeah im a chess.com player
  47. runken_brunflo Im playing lichess with IRL friends from the chessclub in 4545
  48. gary0892 Yeah that makes sense
  49. gary0892 Nxe4 was clever I didn't see it at all then was a bit lost on what to do
  50. runken_brunflo Yeah an absolute hail marry
  51. runken_brunflo I think u should have taken with the pawn
  52. runken_brunflo the game changed when u move Qd3
  53. runken_brunflo I think
  54. gary0892 Move 19 during my long think I kept confusing myself
  55. gary0892 I thought about lots of different knight moves
  56. gary0892 Just sacking and then retaking the bishop etc
  57. runken_brunflo Yeah, f2 seamed good for me
  58. runken_brunflo I saw that I will get the material back on the 8th rank so I figured I could supress your rooks ALOT on 1st file
  59. gary0892 Yeah and it was very difficult for me to play. I was tryuing desperately to free myslef
  60. gary0892 I felt good after Nb5 haha
  61. runken_brunflo Yeah I was thinking about h4 like u did eventually
  62. runken_brunflo but I think it was too slow
  63. runken_brunflo but that the game was 0-0 on move 30 I had no idea about
  64. runken_brunflo I really liked my position with u on a3
  65. runken_brunflo but I think it's like an end game scenario
  66. gary0892 I was hoping to create a file
  67. runken_brunflo right
  68. runken_brunflo I didnt see how Re7 is a blunder either
  69. gary0892 The you have to guard against backrank
  70. runken_brunflo Yeah, I think Rb1 for u is also equalizing
  71. runken_brunflo at a certain point
  72. gary0892 Even if you attack the bishop I don't have to defend
  73. runken_brunflo Didnt see d6 at all
  74. runken_brunflo as a threat
  75. runken_brunflo but I get it now with the computer
  76. gary0892 I see engine is telling me at some point that I need to sacrifice bishop for rook
  77. gary0892 rook for bishop sorry
  78. runken_brunflo yeah but who would ever be able to make that calculation
  79. runken_brunflo I wouldnt have done that either
  80. runken_brunflo when I see that Rg1 is bad is also strange imo because it's the "only human move" essentially
  81. gary0892 I guess practically it would feel better but my thought was if I just keep the rooks and survive I'm probably winning or better
  82. runken_brunflo exactly my thought too
  83. gary0892 I guess if you take you're actually pinned to the rook
  84. runken_brunflo Yeah for sure
  85. runken_brunflo I think my BIG mistake was to allow that knight move
  86. gary0892 but I thought my only trump was material
  87. gary0892 Yeah I thought so too
  88. gary0892 I thought your bishop mught be getting in trouble in the opening
  89. gary0892 SO I expected you to take on c3
  90. runken_brunflo Right
  91. runken_brunflo I wanted the pin you know..
  92. runken_brunflo Be3
  93. gary0892 And that knight move had a double threat so I thought you may miss Bd6 and think I'm trying to trade and win a pawn
  94. runken_brunflo with the inbetween move Kh5?!
  95. gary0892 Nh5?
  96. runken_brunflo and then I wanted to move Qc5
  97. runken_brunflo Yeah it seems silly now because I didnt see Kb5 at all
  98. runken_brunflo and what trouble that was going to cause
  99. gary0892 I did have fears of my queen and king on that diagonal
  100. gary0892 But I thought it was always ok
  101. runken_brunflo Yeah q on d2 and k on c1 is rarely a good idea
  102. runken_brunflo after move 10 that was my plan, to get into a position where I could pin the king and queen and win
  103. runken_brunflo I think u can see it in the notes I wrote too
  104. gary0892 I did think you had d5 in the opening which seemed strong to me instead of Qe7
  105. runken_brunflo Oh yeah?
  106. runken_brunflo Im so afraid as black to push that
  107. gary0892 Oh no maybe afte f3 too
  108. runken_brunflo U did see the trap on c7 right?
  109. gary0892 Yeah
  110. runken_brunflo Bc7??
  111. gary0892 Yep
  112. gary0892 I think after d6 I'm trapped
  113. runken_brunflo That was also a plan of mine to get a free bishop
  114. runken_brunflo Happ
  115. gary0892 And also I think when it was first hanging you also san win a pawn in the centre too
  116. gary0892 Hence f3
  117. runken_brunflo 10.Bxc7d611.Nb5a612.Bxd6Bxd613.Nxd6+Qxd6
  118. runken_brunflo Right
  119. runken_brunflo Well it was a great game man, I will be happy about Ke4?! haha
  120. gary0892 I'm kind of interested on what your Italian prep
  121. gary0892 was
  122. runken_brunflo Really? it was like this:
  123. runken_brunflo Four knights, italian variant, Nxe4, d5, Bd3, dxe4, Bxe4, Bd6, O-O, O-O, d4, exd4, Bxc6, bxc6, Qxd4, c5, Qc3, Qd7, Re1
  124. gary0892 I had looked at both centre fork trick as well in case you prepped that
  125. gary0892 Oh so you would've gone for the trick
  126. runken_brunflo Aha maybe u wouldn't have D5 then
  127. gary0892 You had one game and you played Bc5
  128. runken_brunflo Yeah I looked at t he game u played vs a 1987
  129. gary0892 That was last week in LW
  130. runken_brunflo and prepped basically ALOT from that game
  131. runken_brunflo Yeah
  132. gary0892 I was going to change it a little
  133. runken_brunflo And I had this Qd7 line
  134. gary0892 as it went wrong
  135. runken_brunflo Yeah ur knight move was problematic there
  136. runken_brunflo I figure u werent going to play that but rather Re1
  137. runken_brunflo so I prepped against it too
  138. runken_brunflo I think for these long games, it makes sense to prep something completely random tbh
  139. runken_brunflo because it threw me off alot when u played scotch variation
  140. gary0892 It's a mix I find
  141. gary0892 Four knights scotch is very similar
  142. runken_brunflo My rep as white is Scotch gambit
  143. runken_brunflo I've played 8000 games
  144. gary0892 I've got a lot better at facing the scotch due to prep
  145. runken_brunflo so that helped me a little because 4 knights scotch is similar
  146. runken_brunflo but I had no idea B6 was a blunder
  147. runken_brunflo that is strange
  148. gary0892 If I'd gone for something wildly different I think sometimes I'd get myself in trouble
  149. runken_brunflo Yeah that's also a possibility
  150. gary0892 I wouldn't understand the ressulting middlegame nearly as well
  151. runken_brunflo Yeah, did u prep scotch variation?
  152. runken_brunflo atleast until b6??
  153. gary0892 Yeah a little in case I changed my mind. I was speaking to a teammate about it and I kept changing my mind
  154. runken_brunflo Right
  155. gary0892 I didn't really expect takes on d4
  156. runken_brunflo I see now that b6?? e5! works very well
  157. runken_brunflo exchange variation is easier for me as black because of my white scotch prep
  158. gary0892 Yeah I didn't actually look at your white games
  159. gary0892 SO I was kind of winging it after Nxe4
  160. gary0892 I guess it was going ok for a while at least haha
  161. runken_brunflo Haha I get that
  162. runken_brunflo Well im heading out Gary, let's maybe play some games off tournament 30+30 or so just to play, if u want
  163. gary0892 The correct response for me is really surprising actaully after Ba6
  164. runken_brunflo u can message me on slack
  165. gary0892 Yep ok. That would be good. Hopefully play agin soon
  166. gary0892 Thanks for changing the schedule too.
  167. gary0892 Good luck for the rest of the tournament
  168. runken_brunflo You too man, take care!
