Ruy Lopez: Closed
  1. IsaVulpes good luck gav!
  2. gavalanche20 (1.e4) Hey Erin, Isa, Heidi, WCSL
  3. gavalanche20 (1.e4) Expecting Marshall
  4. Chewbacca_Defense (2) Go Gavin!
  5. gavalanche20 (2.Nf3) Hey Chewy
  6. heidigjr (4.Ba4) (3...a6) (3.Bb5) 'ello gav, imma be neutral since you're playing my fantasy pick :P
  7. Qudit Go Gav!
  8. gavalanche20 (5.O-O) Hey Qudit
  9. gavalanche20 (7.Bb3) Ok so moment of truth
  10. gavalanche20 (8.a4) Ok so I am curious about this
  11. Qudit I feel like I've seen this line somewhere else recently
  12. gavalanche20 (8.a4) I switched to 8. a4 a while back but have not had a chance to play this in league yet
  13. gavalanche20 (8.a4) So i don't think it showed up on my OT
  14. gavalanche20 (8.a4) I believe I have 8. h3 and even 8. c3 from when mund played that Breyer
  15. Chewbacca_Defense (8) I wouldn't think it would be that big of a surprise - when I was playing 1...e5, a4 was the most common anti-Marshall at our level
  16. ErinYu carlsen nepo openings boooo
  17. gavalanche20 (8.a4) hey hoppy, hey cynda
  18. hoppycoldstar Let's go Gav!!!!
  19. cyndaquil1 Go Gav!
  20. gavalanche20 (8...Bb7) (8.a4) 0.5/3 so far this season but I hope to change that
  21. gavalanche20 (9.d3) I have reason to expect opponent might play the Gusti line
  22. gavalanche20 (9.d3) So like d6 Nd7 Nbd2 Nc5 or some such shenanigans
  23. gavalanche20 (9.d3) Basically the faster I play the more time I have to calculate later when I'm out of book
  24. hoppycoldstar The pro move is to play the entire match as if it's bullet
  25. Chewbacca_Defense (10) it works for pulsie
  26. IsaVulpes does it though
  27. Chewbacca_Defense (10) I mean no
  28. IsaVulpes (hi chewb)
  29. Chewbacca_Defense (10) Hey Isa, how you been?
  30. gavalanche20 (10...Na5) Ok so now I have 6 minutes to burn calculating hahaha
  31. gavalanche20 (10...Na5) Ba2 seems almost automatic but there's no way Black can get away with bza4 is there
  32. gavalanche20 (10...Na5) Oh yeah Ba2 if ba4 I think just c3 and play for d4?
  33. gavalanche20 (11.Ba2) I know there are lines where you take on b5 and are okay with giving up the bishop here
  34. gavalanche20 (11.Ba2) But I don't really believe it in this case. I know nothing though
  35. gavalanche20 (11.ba2) hey gsn
  36. hoppycoldstar How does gav get those links to the move when he whispers?
  37. Chewbacca_Defense (11) there's an add-on
  38. WickidDoc go gav!
  39. ErinYu there's an app for it somewhere, i think @timothyha made it?
  40. ErinYu or browser extension
  41. Qudit There are two I believe
  42. gavalanche20 (11.Ba2) Hey Wickid
  43. Gingersquirrelnuts (11...bxa4) Hi Gav
  44. gavalanche20 (11...bxa4) Ok so my idea here was c3 Bc6 d4 or something
  45. gavalanche20 (11...bxa4) Argue that I'm gambiting a pawn for central control and stuff
  46. gavalanche20 (12...Qd7) Hey lexgrad
  47. gavalanche20 (12...Qd7) Okay so my instinct is to go d4 and if ed4 e5!?
  48. gavalanche20 (13.d4) Hey Kramopolis
  49. gavalanche20 (13.d4) Hey Swb
  50. gavalanche20 (13.d4) Oh gosh sorry Srb
  51. gavalanche20 (13.d4) *sigh*
  52. gavalanche20 (13.d4) Hi Seb.
  53. gavalanche20 (13.d4) Fatfingering on names with the keyboard today apparently
  54. hoppycoldstar he's gonna blunder because Seb's name has him so flustered
  55. gavalanche20 (13.d4) I am threatening to win e5 so I think Black has to take or play Nc6 which gives me a4 back
  56. gavalanche20 (13...exd4) So right now I'm seeing e5 dc3 ef6cd2 Bd2 and both the bishop and knight are hit
  57. gavalanche20 (13...exd4) Depending on the line e6 may also end up being a viable push
  58. gavalanche20 (14...dxe5) (14.e5) Hey Eccles
  59. Ecclesiastic go gav!
  60. gavalanche20 (15...Qf5) Nxf7 is tempting
  61. gavalanche20 (15...Qf5) I feel like I have better though
  62. gavalanche20 (15...Qf5) Hang on, Qxa4 where is horsie going?
  63. gavalanche20 (15...Qf5) There's dc3 stuff but I think I just safely take back
  64. gavalanche20 (16.Qxa4) Qg5 Ndf3
  65. gavalanche20 (16.Qxa4) Hey jc
  66. gavalanche20 (16.Qxa4) Something something how does the horsey move
  67. gavalanche20 (16...dxc3) Just double checking to make sure I can just take back here
  68. gavalanche20 (17.bxc3) Oh there's Bc5
  69. mynameismund Go gav!
  70. Chewbacca_Defense (17) the fact that none of black's pieces are defended seems like a problem
  71. Ecclesiastic isn't this just losing a piece?
  72. Ecclesiastic gotta be something here
  73. Chewbacca_Defense (17) I thought 16.Nf7 was an easy piece
  74. gavalanche20 (17...Bc5) Ah okay so Ndf3 and Black saves the piece with Bxf3 Nxf3 but doesn't have time for Nb7 because of Re5
  75. Ecclesiastic yeah I believe so chewy
  76. Chewbacca_Defense (17) if Ndf3 then just Bb6 right
  77. Qudit Wasn't Nxf7 an exchange?
  78. Qudit Still fine of course
  79. Chewbacca_Defense (18) Nxf7 Rxf7 Rxe7 was as far as I looked
  80. gavalanche20 (18.Ndf3) Hey jamougha, vonSlattery, Le-Penseur
  81. Ecclesiastic Bb6 there's Ba3 c5 and I guess at least Bxc5
  82. gavalanche20 (18.Ndf3) And anyone else I haven't said hi to yet. We're just getting started here.
  83. gavalanche20 (18...Bb6) Ok gut instinct here is Ba3
  84. Qudit Yes, but you gave a piece too
  85. gavalanche20 (18...Bb6) Ba3 Bxf3 do I snap the rook
  86. gavalanche20 (18...Bb6) Be3 also looks cool
  87. gavalanche20 (18...Bb6) Or not cool, more like it's a move
  88. gavalanche20 (18...Bb6) Hey mund
  89. gavalanche20 (18...Bb6) How stupid is Ba3 Bxf3 gxf3?
  90. gavalanche20 (18...Bb6) It looks so clunky but it appears to work?
  91. hoppycoldstar he needs to play ba7 just so the entire A file is full
  92. gavalanche20 (19.Ba3) i am currently discarding Bf3 Bf8 because of lingering threats to f2
  93. Chewbacca_Defense (19) that's true, full connect 8
  94. gavalanche20 (19.Ba3) Shoutout to hoppy btw, they played an Evans this morning and Ba3 is a common theme in those positions
  95. Seb32 this looks tough to deal with
  96. Chewbacca_Defense (19) Ne4!
  97. teg Go Gav!
  98. gavalanche20 (19.Ba3) Hey rebuild, hey Zube
  99. gavalanche20 (19...Bxf3) Double checking
  100. hoppycoldstar taking with that g pawn looks terrifying to me
  101. gavalanche20 (20.gxf3) Hey teg
  102. gavalanche20 (20.gxf3) If I blow this game it will probably be because of this move
  103. gavalanche20 (20.gxf3) But I felt like I had to keep up the pressure on f7 otherwise Black has got a fair bit of activity too
  104. gavalanche20 (20...Qg5+) I somehow completely missed this was check
  105. gavalanche20 (20...Qg5+) Kf1 I guess
  106. hoppycoldstar is ng4 good here?
  107. Ecclesiastic zoinks
  108. gavalanche20 (21.Kf1) 90% of this is remotely okay only because my pieces do a surprisingly decent job of preventing immediate disaster
  109. ErinYu jinkies
  110. teg (21.Kf1) he wants to keep the knight om e5 so the rook can't move from f8 without giving up f7
  111. gavalanche20 (21.Kf1) Emphasis on the word immediate
  112. Seb32 22. Qh4 might be only move?
  113. mynameismund Re2?
  114. Seb32 (21) Re2 Qxc3 looks tough
  115. Ecclesiastic Re2 Qxc3 Rc1 looks all right, white gets the exchange
  116. Ecclesiastic + keeps pressure on f7
  117. Seb32 oh right e2 sitll covers e5
  118. Ecclesiastic h4 first?
  119. Ecclesiastic then maybe c5
  120. Chewbacca_Defense (22) Qh6 confuses me
  121. Seb32 what about Nxf7
  122. gavalanche20 (22...Qh6) Hmm Kg1 back and now I can meet Qg5 with Kh1?
  123. Ecclesiastic Nxf7 Qxh2 I wasn't sure about
  124. Seb32 both playing very quickly
  125. hoppycoldstar why not bxf8 there?
  126. mynameismund Qxh2 and white is in some trouble
  127. Seb32 bxf8 Qxh2 is scary
  128. Ecclesiastic (23) gotta go, gl gav!
  129. gavalanche20 (23...Qh5) Qh5 such a quiet move, I'm scared
  130. gavalanche20 (23...Qh5) Bf8 Rf8 and I'm thinking Nf7 looks good because of discoveries and mate on e8 in other lines
  131. gavalanche20 (24.Bxf8) Like Rf8 Nf7 Rf7 Qe8
  132. mynameismund maybe Rd1 first?
  133. Chewbacca_Defense (25) I mean this is mate
  134. mynameismund yea I missed the queen sees e8
  135. Seb32 what is mate
  136. gavalanche20 (25...g6) Re5 I think?
  137. Chewbacca_Defense (25) if he took
  138. Qudit 25... Rxf7 Qe8+ Nxe8 Rxe8# was mate
  139. gavalanche20 (25...g6) Queen seems trapped
  140. Seb32 oh yeah but theres no reason to take
  141. gavalanche20 (25...g6) Ahhh but then there's Re5 Bxf2 which looks tricky
  142. Qudit Yes, taking was not forced
  143. gavalanche20 (25...g6) I think I can get away
  144. mynameismund Bxf2 do you play Kh1 or something else?
  145. Le-Penseur I was thinking g2 because of the checks
  146. Qudit Yeah, looks stronger
  147. Seb32 rxf7 is a nice try but bxf7+ kxf7 Qxa5 and white wins
  148. gavalanche20 (28...Rxf7) Re8 probably too fancy, let's just keep it simple?
  149. gavalanche20 (29...Kxf7) Next thing to check is if I can take a5
  150. gavalanche20 (30.Rxa5) Looks fine, Qh6 probably Qf4 and there's no Nd5
  151. Seb32 (30) qa2+ forcing the trade
  152. heidigjr (31...Qc2) qc4+ now?
  153. gavalanche20 (31...Qc2) Playing for Nd5 tricks I guess
  154. gavalanche20 (33...Kg7) I'm moving sooooo slowly rn
  155. heidigjr gg
  156. Chewbacca_Defense (34) gg
  157. hoppycoldstar nice
  158. Qudit gg
  159. heidigjr congrats on the win, sponsored, looks like we'll see you guys next week ;)
  160. Seb32 (34) nice game, very accurate play by gav
  161. Karpyan That was quite tough. My pieces just didn't hang together nor could I get any traction against the king
  162. gavalanche20 Yeah everything felt a bit loose on the queenside unfortunately
  163. Karpyan So the quiet move Qh5 seemed totally losing
  164. gavalanche20 I thought the idea was to try to pick off f3
  165. Karpyan Yes, basically to give the queen more scope for checks and threats
  166. Karpyan but my position certainly went downhill fast.
  167. gavalanche20 I think maybe taking on a4 was a bit premature
  168. gavalanche20 The comp says Black is fine but it just seems difficult to hold the queenside together
  169. Karpyan Yeah the position seems to be a bit of a tightrope
  170. Karpyan Like finding 15.....Qe8. Not easy
  171. gavalanche20 Basically as soon as that happened my idea was to just blast the position open as soon as possible
  172. gavalanche20 I guess that makes sense, it looks passive but you defend f7, keep an eye on a4 and prepare Rd8 to pressure the isolated pawn on d4
  173. Karpyan Also missed 20....c5
  174. Karpyan But by then it really is move by move - the next best is +2
  175. gavalanche20 Wow that's a crazy line
  176. gavalanche20 My move would have been probably 21. Rab1, trying to dislodge the bishop
  177. gavalanche20 But then the comp's idea is 21...Bc7 22. f4 Bxe5 23. fxe5 c4!!
  178. gavalanche20 Everything is hanging for Black but the point is Black is in time to give perpetual
  179. gavalanche20 Because the queen is cut off
  180. Karpyan Yeah that's gonna be hard to find!
  181. Karpyan So probably stick to the tried and tested 11...c5
  182. Zubenelgenubi gg missed the end, wp both - nice one gav!
  183. gavalanche20 Thanks <3
  184. gavalanche20 Oh I guess b4 and ba4 have been tried in the masters db
  185. gavalanche20 But yeah c5 seems to be by far the main move
  186. Karpyan 19....Ne4 was interesting - it gets v complicated. I had a look at that for quite a while
  187. Karpyan Maybe should have gone for it
  188. gavalanche20 That looks really sharp
  189. Karpyan Comp says it's losing but you would have had some work to do
  190. gavalanche20 Oh I guess we basically trade rooks with Bxf8 and Bxf2xe1 but the deciding factor is the hanging on a5 in the end
  191. gavalanche20 *hanging knight
  192. Karpyan Yes your control over c6 was a pain in the end I couldn't get the knight back into the game
  193. Karpyan 22... Qxc3 wasn
  194. Karpyan *wasn't possible, after Rc1 you force the exchange of queens and the final position is shocking
  195. gavalanche20 Yeah that looks a bit rough
  196. gavalanche20 That game was insanely tactical, just looking at some of the comp lines makes my head hurt
  197. Karpyan Well you played well to navigate through it.
  198. gavalanche20 Thanks! Anyways good luck to you and your team for the rest of the season, maybe we'll play again of these days
  199. seriouslychessed Good stuff
