Nimzo-Larsen Attack: Classical Variation
  1. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) hi @susiedent
  2. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) felt like trying something different
  3. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) i think ive played Nf3 b3 once in leagues
  4. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) it went horribly
  5. sacwin go go srp
  6. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) hi @sacwin
  7. sacwin hey man
  8. sacwin I like the g4
  9. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) ive always wanted to just give up on my repertoire and get really familiar in a position like this
  10. TimothyHa looks like the chat is going to be long this game
  11. sacwin lol
  12. TimothyHa will start saving in 20 moves time
  13. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) brb
  14. sacwin Nf1 g3 looks good
  15. somerapidplayer (9.Nbd2) okay but ive definitely messed up the lines i didnt study and have probably never looked at here
  16. somerapidplayer (9...Bd6) uh oh when did black play their move
  17. sacwin why do I feel like I am the only one who doesn't study opening .....
  18. somerapidplayer (9...Bd6) i refreshed and im gaining time
  19. sacwin I want black to castle queen side
  20. sacwin looks like it's gonna happen
  21. somerapidplayer (11.Qe2) whyd i rush castling
  22. sacwin Qe2 is needed
  23. sacwin now the real game starts
  24. sacwin I am expecting c4
  25. sacwin whether or not to trade the DSB is the next major decision
  26. sacwin what do you think cap...susie ?
  27. sacwin Ne1 safest probably
  28. sacwin ah yeah d4 also works
  29. susiedent (12...Nc5) i just woke up i can't have an intelligent thought for like an hour yet
  30. sacwin then let your instincts take over
  31. susiedent (13.Ne1) my instincts are to make a pot of coffee brb
  32. sacwin hot coffee ...rain and a classical game
  33. sacwin b...d....or knight
  34. sacwin I prefer b
  35. sacwin d is my last choice
  36. sacwin c file is everything now
  37. somerapidplayer (14...Nxd3) omg im missing everything today
  38. somerapidplayer (14...Nxd3) im thinking of some Bd4
  39. somerapidplayer (14...Nxd3) c5 immediately theres Nxd3
  40. somerapidplayer (14...Nxd3) so Nxe1 probably but then theres like Nxd6 Bxf6 stuff
  41. somerapidplayer (15.Bd4) seems decent
  42. somerapidplayer (15.Bd4) also like Qf3 stuff with threats on b7 in the air
  43. somerapidplayer (15.Bd4) meanwhile im already getting sleepy
  44. somerapidplayer (15...Nxe1) fxe1 probably
  45. sacwin Bishop sac on b7 lol
  46. somerapidplayer (16...Kb8) me trying to make Bxb7 work
  47. susiedent (16...Kb8) it's the first thing i was looking at too
  48. somerapidplayer (16...Kb8) hold on...
  49. sacwin Na5 is also good
  50. sacwin I prefer Na5
  51. somerapidplayer (16...Kb8) Bxb7 Kxb7 Na5+ if Ka8 Qa6 should be good
  52. somerapidplayer (16...Kb8) Kb8 and Kc8 at minimum i have repetition
  53. somerapidplayer (16...Kb8) hmmm
  54. sacwin Be4 will be a problem
  55. somerapidplayer (16...Kb8) sack first think after
  56. susiedent (17.Bxb7) for the fans
  57. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) now right after sacking im realising theres c6
  58. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) c5
  59. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) oh but its still a draw
  60. sacwin c5 won't work
  61. sacwin Na5 is still there
  62. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) Ka8 Qa6 c5
  63. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) now time to think
  64. sacwin may have to settle for Nc6
  65. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) btw im like 99% sure Na5 instead of Bxb7 is just better for white
  66. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) but why win when i can draw
  67. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) im pretty sure Kc8 and Kb8 both lose also
  68. somerapidplayer (17.Bxb7) Nc6 kinda disastrous
  69. sacwin na5 first you have to calculate be4
  70. sacwin Bishop sac saves a lot of time lol
  71. sacwin another bishop sac lol
  72. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) hm i can go Nc6
  73. sacwin why do I feel like the game is almost over
  74. susiedent (18...Ka8) did srp even need to recapture 16. Rfxe1? maybe 16. Bxb7+ was also option
  75. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) Nc6 Bh2 Kxh2 Qd6 Ne5
  76. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) okay time to burn 30 minutes before making the draw
  77. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) Qa6 c5 Qc6 Kb8 Qb5 Ka8 is just an easy draw
  78. sacwin can't let a knight roam around alive on our kingside
  79. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) but draws r boring
  80. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) (I say this after basically forcing one with Bxb7)
  81. sacwin why is he thinking of a draw
  82. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) it probably doesnt matter for the match
  83. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) right
  84. susiedent (18...Ka8) also why is he capturing the Bh2. just leave it there so black doesnt get Qd6 with check
  85. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) ill learn more from losing
  86. sacwin yes
  87. sacwin you will learn more ...so no draw...pushhh
  88. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) so Nc6 i end up getting back the piece
  89. susiedent (18...Ka8) tbf i was desperate to draw my last game and accidentally won
  90. susiedent (18...Ka8) valid strat
  91. sacwin lol
  92. sacwin opponent was desperate to not draw then
  93. sacwin nc6 ...Bh2...Kf1
  94. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) if i burn all my time and go Nc6 ill probably lose cause i dont have enough time to figure it out
  95. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) Nc6 Bh2 is forced
  96. susiedent (18...Ka8) its occuring to me that Nc6 Bh2 Kf1 maybe black has Qd6 Qa6 Bd3+!!
  97. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) actually i think im just losing after Nc6 Bh2 Kxh2 Qd6 Ne5 h5
  98. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) i have no attack
  99. sacwin but the queen is still in that diagonal right
  100. somerapidplayer (18...Ka8) any other candidate moves?
  101. susiedent (18...Ka8) yes but then black can capture the knight on c6
  102. susiedent (18...Ka8) so i think maybe Kg2 is better
  103. susiedent (19.Qa6) and Be4+ can be answered with f3
  104. somerapidplayer (19.Qa6) yeah im doing it
  105. sacwin oops I forgot white sacrificed a bishop
  106. somerapidplayer (21.Qb5+) surely Kc7
  107. sacwin a draw ?
  108. susiedent (21...Ka8) solid
  109. somerapidplayer (22.Qc6+) should I go Bxf6 for no reason
  110. susiedent (22...Kb8) if your plan is to make the draw after Bxf6 then it makes no sense, just make the draw now
  111. susiedent (23.Bxf6) lol
  112. sacwin yes
  113. somerapidplayer (23.Bxf6) doenst make a difference but why not
  114. somerapidplayer (24.Qb5+) Kc8 just Qa6 Nc6
  115. sacwin please don't misclick
  116. susiedent gg
  117. sacwin gg
  118. somerapidplayer do u not have automatic threefold on
  119. somerapidplayer i felt like disabling mine
  120. susiedent so i missed a key detail and Kg2 in that line i suggested was not good lol
  121. susiedent srp went the right way
  122. somerapidplayer yeah Na5 was +2
  123. Der_Bo I have immediately regretted Kb8 because of Na5
  124. somerapidplayer i was just too tempted to sack
  125. Der_Bo But was wondered when you played Bxb7
  126. somerapidplayer i didnt see c5 when i sacked
  127. somerapidplayer realised it right after
  128. somerapidplayer as i always do
  129. Der_Bo I dont like this Nf3 stuff... I often dont know the theory
  130. somerapidplayer i didnt know the theory either
  131. sacwin sac and draw then
  132. Der_Bo And I begin to freestyle
  133. somerapidplayer i was expecting some Nf6 g6 setup or some c5 setup
  134. Der_Bo I had hope that Najdorf would be played
  135. somerapidplayer u were going to play sicilian?
  136. somerapidplayer either way i dont play open
  137. Der_Bo Yes
  138. Der_Bo You play bb5
  139. somerapidplayer yeah
  140. Der_Bo Nxd3 is slightly better for white, I havent expected that
  141. somerapidplayer engine also gives Nxd3 Bxd3 Qf3
  142. somerapidplayer didnt consider it but makes sense
  143. somerapidplayer i can understnad white being better
  144. somerapidplayer bishop pair and weak squares around black's king
  145. somerapidplayer apparently if white finds a bunch of only moves 19. Nc6 is also equal
  146. Der_Bo Yeah but the advantage is rather equality. Kb8 made the position favourable..,
  147. somerapidplayer probably should have spent more time before Bxb7 but doesnt really matter
  148. somerapidplayer i remember considering d4 and dismissing it cause of Nd3 but theres just c5
  149. somerapidplayer and also i saw Bd3 Qd1 Nce4
  150. somerapidplayer blind to the c5 idea
