French Defense: Steiner Variation
  1. Scarff awww... I was hoping for d5 cxd exd Qb3 dxe Bc4. But okay, now we play more sound chess
  2. Scarff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zNOJ-xOZNs
  3. Scarff don't stay up too late Tim! I know my games are a must watch, but you have OTB chess to play this weekend :)
  4. Lukhas OTB? damn that must be nice to be in a country that managed the pandemic
  5. Scarff Ba3 Qxa3 exf+ was interesting, but bad I think. And Bb5+ is a bit early for now
  6. Scarff So just 0-0 seems okay. My position is still good
  7. Scarff fxe Nxe5 Nf6 and then? The f6 knight is a good defender
  8. Scarff I was looking at e6 too. But e6 Nh6 looks okay for black, and I don't want things to close down
  9. Scarff fxe5 Nxe5 Qh5+ is winning. So I think this e pawn is poison for now
  10. Scarff let him have the pawn. I want to attack, his king looks weak there
  11. Scarff Nxe5 Nxe Qxe Qxe Rxe looks like a drawish ending, not really what I want
  12. Scarff nothing concrete yet. But the position around his king is not becoming any prettier
  13. Scarff Looks like I can win the pawn back, and still have good attacking chances
  14. Scarff and after for example h5 Nxe5 Nxe5 Bxe5, my bishop can come to the kingside for defense, if needed, and Q too
  15. Scarff not the attack I dreamed about, but still a really nice position. Maybe already winning for white even? Not quickly, but more long term?
  16. jswanberg Looming Qh7+ worries me
  17. Scarff I think I went a bit wrong, it looks like he is defending this well
  18. jswanberg Maybe Qc7 here (25)
  19. Scarff I thought 24...Qd7 was good for him. Now I think I'm better again?
  20. eigentor I liked Bc7 better. Should have won the exchange
  21. jswanberg I wonder if Red1 would have been as good. Hard to tell where I’d put the queen (26)
  22. jswanberg Nvm ...Qc2 probably stalls enough for that. Qc6 looks better because it prevents that as well
  23. Scarff Safe position for me I think. And then next Rd1 followed by maybe Rxd5 Qxb6#. That seems like a strong threat at least
  24. Scarff not the best technique :(
  25. ECelal (31) gg
  26. jswanberg Oh wow this turned quick
  27. Scarff ahhhh. This ending is horrible
  28. Scarff totally messed it all up
  29. jswanberg Qd2# was mate in 1
  30. Lukhas gg guys
  31. Scarff Sorry guys. 2 won positions in 2 weeks, and I lost both!
  32. darkbishop21 Well played Scarff, you outplayed me positionally throughout
  33. darkbishop21 I was in real trouble when you forced me to castle long
  34. Scarff I felt the same. But stockfish feelsl ike you had an advantage after the middlegame
  35. Scarff Yeah. But you held on well, and eventually I gave away the advantage and you came back stronger
  36. darkbishop21 Really? It didn't feel like it
  37. darkbishop21 Stckfish's opinion I mean
  38. Scarff Move 18 you are -1.6 according to SF
  39. darkbishop21 Wow,
  40. Scarff I didn't feel like that either. It felt like white was better most game to me, but apparently not!
  41. darkbishop21 I'm trying to improve my strategic play, but its a slow learning process for me
  42. Scarff Yeah same here. This game was so frustring with that too
  43. Scarff Feeling like you're better, but not being able to finish it. Improving at chess is so slow!
  44. darkbishop21 I think SF sees things in a way that we cant utilize, in human terms, I think your position was much stronger
  45. darkbishop21 Have you ever tried voice chat?
  46. Scarff Yes. SF sees all the defenses and just see that you come out ahead, but seeing that yourself is really hard
  47. Scarff No I haven't
  48. darkbishop21 neither have I , do you want to try?
  49. Scarff Sure. Let's see if it works :)
  50. darkbishop21 i cant hear anything
  51. Scarff Me neither haha. It does say my microphone is connected
  52. darkbishop21 mine too
  53. darkbishop21 im turning it off ; now I know why noone uses it hahah
  54. Scarff Hahah
  55. darkbishop21 Anyway, you sprung straight into action when I castled long
  56. Scarff Yes, I thought I could get a strong attack. But SF likes just 12.e6. Playing it more positional
  57. darkbishop21 Eventually I was forced to push c6 pawn, and you kept capatilizing. Truly you were unlucky not to take that game
  58. darkbishop21 Oh SF liked e6..I was worried about that
  59. Scarff Unlucky... or just bad haha :)
  60. Scarff Going over it with SF is not great, it sees so many simple ways to win for me :(
  61. darkbishop21 NO.. missing a tactic at the end of a long game is a bit of dice roll I think, you should see some clunckers I made in this season!
  62. darkbishop21 Sorry I meant small no :)
  63. Scarff I know, kind of. It just feels bad to lose after being winning
  64. darkbishop21 Yeah ..i know, I threw away 2 games this season, and I was so embarassed , reporting back to my team
  65. Scarff Same for me. And it's this game and last week. So my season ends pretty badly!
  66. Scarff I do enjoy these games though! Attacking games with lots of tactics, it's fun :D
  67. darkbishop21 The antidote; have a nice glass of wine and celebrate a great season
  68. Scarff 27.Qb5+ followed by Re2 just traps the queen. That would have been a quick win. But tough to spot
  69. Scarff I will do that tonight :D
  70. darkbishop21 I Oh, I see 27. Qb5+ !!
  71. darkbishop21 Yeah, I didn't see that
  72. Scarff Me neither, that's a tough one to spot I think
  73. Scarff BUt for example 23.Bxf4 is simple, and it just wins. Exploiting your weak 7nd rank. That's my worst move I think
  74. darkbishop21 Yep, it looks like the Q has plenty of room, but very deceptive; sheesh, chess is hard!
  75. Scarff I need to stay calm on lower time. I waste so many games at the end. I stop calculating properly once my time gets below 10 mins
  76. Scarff You defended my attack well. And Ne2+ was a tricky move, it stressed me out and I went wrong
  77. darkbishop21 ok yeah, time stress is common I heard on a chess podcast.. Its definitely been a problem for me too
  78. Scarff Thanks for the game! This was a good one! Have a nice weekend, and maybe until next season :)
  79. darkbishop21 I really enjoyed our game and chat. Anytime you want a game , let me know . Thanks for the game!
  80. Scarff Okay, good to know :)
  81. darkbishop21 Bye :)
