Good Game, dragonfly98!

You put up a good fight, I enjoyed the game!

I will provide annotation of the game shortly. Care for another game? :slight_smile:

Sure, I’d like to play another game. Do you want to be black or white?

Yes, that would be fantastic. Consider it done. This time I’ll take black. I apologize for the goof-up last time.

Cool, I’ve started the game.

Well here my annotation of the game.

  1. e4 Nc 6
  2. Nf3 e5
  3. Bb5 Nd4
  4. Nxd4 exd4
  5. d3 c6

Spanish Opening. 5) … a6 6)Ba4 b5 7)Bb3 Bb4 8)c3 dxc3 9)bxc3 Ba5 10)0-0 Nc6 11) Rd1 0-0

  1. Ba4 Nf6
  2. c3 Qa5

  1. Bd2 Qe5
  2. f4 Qe7
  3. O-O Qc5
  4. Kh1 b5
  5. b4 Qb6
  6. Bb3 d5

13)Bb2 Qa5 14)Qe2 d5 15)0-0 dxc4 dxe4 Ba6 wins a piece for black.

  1. exd5 cxd5

14)e5 Ng4 looks playable for white.

17)Rxe7 Kxe7 18)Qe2+ Kd8

  1. Qe1 Bd6
  1. attempting to win the bishop.
  1. Bxd5 Bb7

19)c4 bxc4 20)dxc4 dxc4 21)Bxc4 Bxb2

or

19)Na3 followed by c4

  1. Bxb7 Qxb7

or should have considered:

20)c4 bxc4 21)dxc4

  1. cxd4 Qd5

too slow. Na3 followed by c4 is stronger.

  1. Qh4 Qxd4

Qh4? Should have played Nc3 or Bb2 followed by Nc3 or Qg3. Qh4 loses material.

  1. Bc3 Qxf4
  2. Nd2 Be7
  3. Rf1 Qxf1+
  4. Nxf1 Bxh4
  5. g3 Bd8
  6. h3 Nf6
