  1. fake_switch gooooooooooooooo patchy!!!
  2. ScienceGeek Goooo Vacuous!
  3. fake_switch (4...exd5) two QGD in one day!
  4. ScienceGeek Right! An exchange QGD at that
  5. ScienceGeek This is all still theory no?
  6. fake_switch (8.Qc2) probably :D
  7. ScienceGeek Sorry if that was a noob question lol
  8. fake_switch (9.Nf3) ohh, looks like 2.8k games in this position in the masters db
  9. val1313 (9.Nf3) GO GO Patchy !
  10. rojazu Go Vacuous
  11. fake_switch (9.Nf3) not noob at all, i don't generally play d4, and play nimzo against it, so i have no idea if this is theory or not
  12. val1313 (9.Nf3) I think it is
  13. rojazu all very normal. classic carlsbad structure
  14. ScienceGeek Ah I see. I have faced the nimzo a bit OTB
  15. val1313 (9...Re8) Re8 main move
  16. Ivory12 (10.O-O) yes all theory
  17. val1313 (10.O-O) Wow 3,7 master games still. so its main main theory
  18. Ivory12 (10.O-O) even I know this much :D
  19. rojazu White should be playing for the minority attack
  20. val1313 (10.O-O) You know a lot, so that doesn't say much ;)
  21. Ivory12 (10.O-O) ..Nf8 is next :D
  22. ScienceGeek a3 then b4?
  23. rojazu yep. just smash up the queenside. its also possible to plonk a horsey on e5 and play f4
  24. ScienceGeek Horsey go L shape ?
  25. val1313 (10.O-O) Ne8 seems very logical
  26. rojazu depends what you have taken, but usually L yes
  27. Ivory12 (10...a6) This drops the h-pawn is White wants
  28. Ivory12 (10...a6) if-
  29. ScienceGeek Hahaha love that
  30. Ivory12 (10...a6) well not really
  31. val1313 (10...a6) how ?
  32. Ivory12 (10...a6) but Ne5
  33. rojazu f3 and playing e4 break is another idea. but the minority attack is the most classic. lets see what Vacuous comes up with
  34. Ivory12 (10...a6) f3-e4 plan is better imo but White normally signals that sort of thing by playing Ne2 earlier
  35. Ivory12 (10...a6) but ofc I say that I play the f3 nimzo too
  36. ScienceGeek Would taking the knight on f6 be good for the pushing e4 plan to remove a defender or not a good idea generally?
  37. rojazu not here i think just gets replaced by the other one and you've given up your bishop for no good reason.
  38. val1313 (11.Rab1) yes and you gave room to black
  39. val1313 (11.Rab1) to develop his lsb
  40. rojazu but in general yes if you want to increase central control of light squares then Bxf6 is an idea. depends on your strategy
  41. ScienceGeek Ah ok that makes sense. that’s blacks worst piece arguably is the lsb so why give it purpose
  42. val1313 (11...Qc7) I don't like Qc7
  43. fake_switch (11...Qc7) oh man, this entire match is super even. outside of board 1 every paring only has a few rating point difference
  44. Ivory12 (11...Qc7) I guess the idea is Ng4 with tempo on both h2 and g5
  45. Ivory12 (11...Qc7) but you need something else too?
  46. rojazu 250pts matters little when my opponent hasnt seen the BORG before
  47. val1313 (11...Qc7) now Ne8 is met by bxf6 nxd4
  48. val1313 (11...Qc7) d5*
  49. fake_switch (11...qc7) :d
  50. fake_switch (11...Qc7) are you really playing 1. ... g5?
  51. val1313 (11...Qc7) yeah max, but NG4 Bf4 ?
  52. fake_switch (11...Qc7) someone on yoru team has to at some point this season
  53. Ivory12 (11...Qc7) yes or just Bxe7, that's why White needs an extra tempo or attacker over there to make it work I think
  54. ScienceGeek I was thinking that. Someone on our team must play the opening for the memes no?
  55. ScienceGeek I’m board 8 so maybe I have to take the risk...
  56. rojazu if we force our opponents to spend time prepping an obvious shite opening then we have already won.
  57. Ivory12 (11...Qc7) no one should be trusting my chess riffing btw, I have not played a game in a month
  58. fake_switch (11...Qc7) i think the winner of s27 had a borg themed team name
  59. fake_switch (13...Qxd6) it was s28 "The Borgov Collective"
  60. ScienceGeek We are heavily prepared in psychological chess theory I like it
  61. val1313 (13...Qxd6) We developped a groundbreaking theory last season with Astro "opening theory is cheating". To be fair he had way more success
  62. val1313 (13...Qxd6) than me
  63. val1313 (13...Qxd6) This trade helps black no ?
  64. reddevil906 Science Geek... I see you. I am 100% sure that I would lose to you on a meme opening. :) o. You with a
  65. ScienceGeek Now ng4 seems kinda scary
  66. val1313 (13...Qxd6) does it ?
  67. ScienceGeek Reddevil... I would make it look cool for 7 moves then blunder something so it would be epic lol
  68. fake_switch (13...Qxd6) hmm, Ng4 abd h7 becomes a little loose
  69. rojazu I am expecting one game from my team at some point this season though. Immediete watch party-ied.
  70. fake_switch (13...Qxd6) regardless of the outcome of our match this week, i'll be rooting for you guys the rest of the way
  71. ScienceGeek Fake... good point. With a check on black’s king and then maybe g3
  72. fake_switch (13...Qxd6) fun bantering team!
  73. ScienceGeek Getting into this league has been a high point for me this year. Already love the atmosphere and being around chess community
  74. val1313 (14.b4) You will learn a lot watching other play and try to understand the moves and comments
  75. ScienceGeek So far I am learning a lot which is awesome.
  76. val1313 (14...b6) B6 looks strange for me ? I don't see the prospects on the B on B7 ? creates long term weakness on c6
  77. ScienceGeek Right, but what is immediate response? I was thinking a4 to meet b5 but I’m not sure if that’s good for white
  78. fake_switch (14...b6) i was assuming b6 was prepping for c5 push
  79. ScienceGeek Oh yeah that’s probably the plan
  80. rojazu idea must be c5 yes
  81. rojazu so Na4 comes to mind. dont know if its good but any move that crosses an opponents plan is annoying and therefore good
  82. ScienceGeek Right but na4 b5 does the knight go back arguing c5 push is harder to support now?
  83. rojazu then you will have a knight on an outpost. black wont push there
  84. ScienceGeek Oh outpost on c5, I missed that
  85. val1313 (15.Rfd1) I agree, I would gladly let your knight sitting on A4
  86. rojazu if Nxc5 bxc5 you will play a4 and smash up his stucture which is your whole idea anwyay
  87. ScienceGeek Great point
  88. rojazu another idea is to play the e4 break here. after lots of exchanges the c-pawn will be vulnerable
  89. rojazu Rd1 puts the rook opposite the queen, but does it stop c5?
  90. ScienceGeek E4 now or what moves to prepare it?
  91. rojazu i suppose there may be tactical possibilities created by the move
  92. ScienceGeek e4 dxe4 nxe4 nxe4 Bxe4 but is that better for white idk
  93. rojazu thats good for white. you are threatening c6 and h7+
  94. rojazu i dont think black is forced to go into all of those exchanges though
  95. ScienceGeek You are right.
  96. rojazu have to go now... its late over here. opening has been decent - good luck Vac!
  97. ScienceGeek Thanks for hanging out. Have a good evening!
  98. Ivory12 (15.Rfd1) long think
  99. ScienceGeek Really long
  100. fake_switch Oh good its not just me. In transit, thought i lost connection
  101. Ivory12 (15.Rfd1) how does black solve the problem of the LSB
  102. Ivory12 (15.Rfd1) Nf8 I think is still okay here
  103. stevenlongs I was wondering about Nf8 as well but Na4 looks annoying
  104. stevenlongs but maybe the knight is needed to guard e4
  105. Ivory12 (15.Rfd1) it's maybe strange to see a carslbad
  106. Ivory12 (15.Rfd1) key feature being half open c and e files
  107. Ivory12 (15.Rfd1) and white puts the rooks on b and d
  108. ScienceGeek A4 is what I would have done but idk if there was a better move
  109. fake_switch Ohhh, time difference has leveled off
  110. ScienceGeek Yeah this is tough to deal with as white I feel
  111. fake_switch (32.Nxd7) ohh, i guess black is giving up a pawn here?
  112. fake_switch (32...Bxd7) Bxd5
  113. fake_switch (32...Bxd7) cxd5 hangs the queen
  114. fake_switch (33...Rc8) Bxc6?!?
  115. ScienceGeek That’s what I was thinking about
  116. ScienceGeek Bxc6 Bxc6 rxc6
  117. ScienceGeek If full liquidation whites rook is threatening to take on a6
  118. fake_switch (34...Qd6) d5 seems good now
  119. fake_switch (34...Qd6) or not
  120. ScienceGeek D5 gives away b4 pawn
  121. ScienceGeek But I guess black shouldn’t go pawn hunting right now lol
  122. ScienceGeek Now dxc6?
  123. fake_switch (36.dxc6) i think so
  124. ScienceGeek Trying to trade queens or pressure with Bb3
  125. ScienceGeek Wait that wouldn’t work
  126. Ivory12 (38...Rcxc7) This doesn't work for Black?
  127. ScienceGeek Trade all rooks now no?
  128. fake_switch (38...Rcxc7) i don't think so?
