Bird Opening: Dutch Variation
  1. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) Pelagea so nice
  2. chessunable surely that is one of the prehistoric continents
  3. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) hot debate whether to take on c2 or on d4
  4. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) which bishop do i care about more
  5. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) wincon check says the one way for me to lose is getting mated, and thats more likely without the bg7
  6. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) plus its good vs bad bishop things
  7. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) so prolly taking on c2 is simpler
  8. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) that does hang c4 tho i think
  9. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) well i also win a third pawn in the process so mb i shouldnt care
  10. IsaVulpes (22.Kh1) both moves must be winning and this just costs me a ton of time for no reason
  11. jippiedoe Wincon check: make a move?
  12. chessunable necessary but not sufficient wincon
  13. IsaVulpes (22...Bxc2) possible to give up both bishops too mh
  14. IsaVulpes (23.Nxc2) well not now but i though this was at minimum nxc3
  15. gavalanche20 Is wincon the new priyomr
  16. invinci7777 (24.Qh5) qf2 could be a thing
  17. Pope123 Qf2 Be3 i thought
  18. invinci7777 (24.Qh5) yeah qf2 is bad
  19. IsaVulpes (24...Nb5) qf2 was another option but again felt like inviting a mess for no reason
  20. IsaVulpes (25.Be3) just pulling pieces back should be sufficient
  21. chessunable three pawns are three pawns
  22. invinci7777 (25.Be3) 5 pieces controlling d5
  23. IsaVulpes (25...Nbd4) overcomplicating things for no reason after all
  24. IsaVulpes (25...Nbd4) while simultaneously using up all my clock
  25. IsaVulpes (25...Nbd4) will manage to throw this somehow
  26. nerja25390 that would be impressive
  27. Pope123 in time trouble anything is possible
  28. invinci7777 (26.Bh3) rd5
  29. invinci7777 (26.Bh3) and then double up on d, than all pieces will be controlling d4
  30. chessunable yeah somehow white is more alive than they deserved to be
  31. Pope123 i like Rd5 comes with the f4 threat
  32. chessunable take twice on d4, then on f5?
  33. IsaVulpes (26...Qe5) mh we get some opposite colour bishops and i lose 1-2 pawns on the way
  34. IsaVulpes (26...Qe5) not free maybe
  35. chessunable still feels winning since even Qxh7+ Kf8 is not that big a threat
  36. chessunable but still
  37. invinci7777 (29.Bxf5) but yeah opposite color bishop is a chance for draw
  38. chessunable yeah isa could have converted this more cleanly for sure
  39. izzie26 (29.Bxf5) Isa has a soft spot for birds: lichess.org/XitJQdU8#15
  40. IsaVulpes (29.Bxf5) i dont think q/bxh7 leads anywhere but i might play h6 just to not lose a pawn
  41. chessunable https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVaU2WOMfCc
  42. nerja25390 its a rickroll
  43. chessunable ):<
  44. chessunable Qd5+ followed by Rd2
  45. invinci7777 (31.Qe2) yeah that looks gg
  46. Pope123 thats brutal
  47. Zubenelgenubi (31...Rd2) or that
  48. Pope123 does it have the same punch?
  49. Pope123 yes it does
  50. IsaVulpes (31...Rd2) coulda gone b5 since i still dont see a threat for white
  51. invinci7777 (31...Rd2) there is qf3 here may be
  52. IsaVulpes (31...Rd2) but Qxb2 next feels kinda crushing
  53. chessunable i was wondering about Rd2 Qxc4 Qxb2 Qh4 something
  54. IsaVulpes (32.Qxc4) maybe e2 is simpler
  55. nerja25390 e2 surely
  56. IsaVulpes (32.Qxc4) just picks up the bishop
  57. gavalanche20 Black is ahead time on move 32
  58. gavalanche20 Who are they and what have they done to Isa
  59. chessunable e2 is annoying
  60. IsaVulpes (32...e2) almost fell behind on the clock lel
  61. chessunable yeah ok kinda resignable
  62. Zubenelgenubi (33.Bg6) ok that's free
  63. Pope123 33.Bg6 exf1=Q+ Rx Qd5+ seems easy enough
  64. chessunable Qxd5 Rxd5 Bxf7+ there :o
  65. Pope123 Bxf7+ in the end though
  66. Pope123 yeah :(
  67. Pope123 white too clever
  68. Zubenelgenubi (33.Bg6) and chessunable too fast
  69. chessunable unnecessary way to convert, but all with checks: exf1=Q+ Rxf1 Rxh2+ Kxh2 Qe2+ Qxe2 Rxe2+ followed by fxg6, extra piece :-)
  70. Pope123 unfair
  71. Zubenelgenubi (34.Rxf1) just defend f7?
  72. invinci7777 (34.Rxf1) rxh2 is cool
  73. chessunable Rf8 bo-ring
  74. Zubenelgenubi (34...Rf8) haha
  75. chessunable probably induces resignation though
  76. IsaVulpes (34...Rf8) had expected bg6 but didnt really think about an answer yet cus i didnt believe it could ever accomplish much
  77. IsaVulpes (34...Rf8) there were some tricks like 34..Qd5+ being unavailable cus i lose the whole rook at the end
  78. IsaVulpes (34...Rf8) but now it should be over
  79. IsaVulpes (34...Rf8) Rxf7 Qd5 theres no more Bxf7+, Bxf7+ is just Kh8, no other move makes much sense
  80. chessunable did anyone end up saving chat?
  81. IsaVulpes (34...Rf8) Qd5 big threat and also just like, mate is a threat
  82. Zubenelgenubi (35...Kh8) I saved the beginning
  83. invinci7777 (35.Bxf7+) I saved some
  84. Pope123 same
  85. chessunable very good
  86. chessunable Bi10 threatening Qh9+
  87. IsaVulpes (36.Qb4) did manage to fall behind on the clock but for what amounts to being the final move i allowed myself
  88. IsaVulpes (36...Rxf7) lol i blundered that the Rd2 is hanging
  89. IsaVulpes (36...Rxf7) good thing i doesnt matter
  90. Pope123 gg!
  91. chessunable gg, nice game
  92. invinci7777 gg
  93. Zubenelgenubi gg
  94. Silkthewanderer Yeah, if one plays dubious openings, one really really needs to remember basic theory. 10. e4 is just bad, I mean worse than the rest
  95. chessunable classical rank 28 :bow:
  96. Silkthewanderer The whole idea is to play f5 if Black doesn't prevent it
  97. invinci7777 https://pastebin.com/zHhDUfLN
  98. invinci7777 ^^chat backup
  99. IsaVulpes thank u :pray:
  100. IsaVulpes gimme a min i need to do duolingo quick then we can have a look over it
  101. Silkthewanderer If I don't play f5 what am I even doing. I tried to make something swindly happen with Qb3
  102. Silkthewanderer Based on the idea Qb3 Be2 Re1 Bxd3 exd5 Na5 Qd1 e4 b4
  103. Silkthewanderer But I kinda missed that this gets answered with Nfd7 (with or without axb) and everything is bad
  104. Silkthewanderer And without that idea I just lose a pawn on top of the already sketchy positional part
  105. Silkthewanderer From there I am basically only making moves with the aim of not resigning immediately.
  106. Gingersquirrelnuts gg
  107. chessunable after b4 even if you get a free extra move to take on a5 it's still -3 ):
  108. IsaVulpes ok done
  109. IsaVulpes apparently 10.f5 is indeed a line that exists
  110. IsaVulpes 130 games on lichess, most by SkilledChessPlayer
  111. Silkthewanderer Yep. It is also in my file
  112. IsaVulpes didnt really feel like that can be unduly concerning for me
  113. Silkthewanderer Blitzing moves bad
  114. IsaVulpes i play e4 and have space/center while you lack development and sit on two random knights in nowhere?
  115. IsaVulpes mh maybe Bg5 is legal
  116. IsaVulpes h6 not really a move
  117. IsaVulpes ok perhaps there is a point to it
  118. IsaVulpes my book says 8..Rb8
  119. IsaVulpes I'm not coming up with that one
  120. IsaVulpes but apparently it's very strong
  121. Silkthewanderer f5 e4 is usually not played. I think I can break the center
  122. Silkthewanderer Re8 is out of fashion but I have no idea why
  123. Silkthewanderer After f5 my main line is Ne7 e4 c5 d4 gxf exf exd cxd Nc6 Nc2
  124. IsaVulpes Ne7
  125. IsaVulpes that doesnt sound like a move i'm making
  126. Silkthewanderer Apparently the main move. Engine wants to undermine f5 right away
  127. IsaVulpes I'm pretty sure I'd play e4 if that doesnt lose
  128. IsaVulpes most logical move
  129. IsaVulpes did you try to dodge prep with this
  130. IsaVulpes or did you want to give it a try anyway
  131. Silkthewanderer I played relevant theory in the last three games and fared rather badly.
  132. Silkthewanderer Scrambling two draws with Black with a lot of luck
  133. IsaVulpes i looked at your db and saw you play every first move and then random moves after
  134. IsaVulpes so i decided to just not prep at all
  135. Silkthewanderer And you play too much stuff for me to pick a safe variation. So I decided to try one you never played on the off chance you do dumb stuff
  136. Silkthewanderer ...against it.
  137. Silkthewanderer Welp. I keep guessing wrong. I play my good stuff against the players who prep and the yolo stuff against those who dont
  138. IsaVulpes well I normally prep
  139. IsaVulpes But who would prep against you with 5 billion lines
  140. IsaVulpes In my White game vs you I could prep since you play 2..Nc6 sicil most of the time
  141. IsaVulpes but Black vs you felt unpreppable
  142. IsaVulpes your last game was 1.c3 i will assume that's not one of the "relevant theory" games
  143. Silkthewanderer I was kinda tempted to take you on in the Scotch 4 Knights
  144. Silkthewanderer I meant my last league game.
  145. IsaVulpes mh i know nothing about Nf3 Bc4 i always go Nb3 there
  146. Silkthewanderer Those where 20 moves of Alapin where I didn't know the recommended new move from a 2020 chessable course.
  147. IsaVulpes Then you were somewhere between +0.5 and +3 the entire game, never worse, and failed to convert
  148. IsaVulpes Doesn't sound like a big reason to quit playing good moves
  149. Silkthewanderer That was the one that went reasonably well. The Black games are the ones that went very badly.
  150. IsaVulpes ah
  151. IsaVulpes yeah there your repertoire is more limited so it's actually possible to prep
  152. IsaVulpes "u12912 I saw you played this line every game in the database so I was able to prepare quite deeply" that's a recipe for poor positions in
  153. IsaVulpes this league
  154. Silkthewanderer I do make experiments to play openings on Half knowledge to stay unpredictable
  155. IsaVulpes if you broaden your Black rep like 5% as much as your White one, I don't think you have to worry much
  156. IsaVulpes In any case I don't think playing bad openings on half knowledge is the solution :P
  157. Silkthewanderer And that got me a Round 1 LW loss in an improvised Grunfeld
  158. Silkthewanderer And the bad openings do win games for me occassionally but they stop working somewhere around 2200 Classical.
  159. IsaVulpes Well bad openings can still win
  160. IsaVulpes Just make life harder i think
  161. IsaVulpes your opponent had barely any games in that grun line eh
  162. IsaVulpes but does one ever go c6
  163. IsaVulpes i know a bunch of lines where one plays Nc6
  164. Silkthewanderer Sometimes. Not there.
  165. Silkthewanderer Nc6 would have been correct there IIRC.
  166. IsaVulpes anyway yeah dunno, i see you as a strong player but in both our games you sort of got untenable positions by move 10 due to playing odd
  167. IsaVulpes things outside of your own files
  168. IsaVulpes not sure if thats a recurring issue or i got 'lucky'
  169. IsaVulpes maybe join Quest? It's a pretty cool tournament and useful for opening practice since it's 4 games at once all with low pressure
  170. Silkthewanderer Bit of both. I am currently struggling to find a good degree of offbeatness
  171. Silkthewanderer For the games where I don't see a good idea for targeted prep.
  172. IsaVulpes i have multiple reps that are all relatively mainline and just swap between those if I dont have a prep target
  173. IsaVulpes Then both of us can't prep and it's unlikely opponent knows 30 moves so we just play chess and I get a good position cus i played a mainline
  174. Silkthewanderer Well, that is the advantage of multiple reps
  175. Silkthewanderer Before I joined the league I had one main opening for 20 years
  176. IsaVulpes heh
  177. IsaVulpes i swap openings like underwear
  178. IsaVulpes very enjoyable to play 1.d4 OTB and see oppo go into a 15 minute tank cause my db is full of 1.e4
  179. IsaVulpes sadly ruined on lichess
  180. Silkthewanderer This is what happened in the LW game I mentioned. I thought they wanted to target my Slav repertoire
  181. Silkthewanderer So I went for something which I thought would be most punishing for a casual d4 player.
  182. IsaVulpes ah
  183. Silkthewanderer Which is usually a thought process that precedes me punishing myself.
  184. IsaVulpes yeah in general i think it's better there if you don't straightup know a 2nd opening well to play your normal stuff but deviate somewhere
  185. IsaVulpes within a line
  186. Silkthewanderer The alternative is to just play your main stuff and survive being surprised
  187. IsaVulpes that ofc is also a thing but doing it in this league is unpleasant
  188. IsaVulpes so I'd eg go into the slav ML and then play 6..e6 instead of my usual 6..Nbd7
  189. Silkthewanderer In the end I suffered massively but got the draws. Playing the main stuff gets results, it is just draining to be the target.
  190. IsaVulpes that way I'm unlikely to run into prep to move 30, but at the same time it's still a position type I've seen before and know something about
  191. IsaVulpes while playing the gruen randomly without prep on the spot is a rough life, having to make up the entire opening
  192. Silkthewanderer Yes. Not claiming it was a good idea.
  193. Silkthewanderer One issue is also that I am currently avoiding opening complexes where much variation is possible, like QGD or Spanish
  194. Silkthewanderer Playing QID or Svesh is fun but you have exactly one playable line
  195. IsaVulpes hey theres a ba6 and a bb7 qid
  196. IsaVulpes the svesh starts to diverge on like move 37 that's true )(
  197. Silkthewanderer Yep. Okay, time to face the team.
  198. IsaVulpes if they dare be angry for some reason I will open a challenge to any of them!
  199. IsaVulpes thanks for the game o/
  200. Silkthewanderer Thanks for the game, see you around
