  1. Chewbacca_Defense Go Qudit!
  2. VicPez Haha -- 18 spectators -- no pressure, guys!
  3. gavalanche20 Glgl Qudit
  4. FM Like-a-hurricane Still doubting the opening to play
  5. gavalanche20 Let's have a Najdoerf
  6. gavalanche20 (5.O-O) (4...Nf6) (4.Ba4) (3...a6) (3.Bb5) (2...Nc6) (1...e5) Ooo wait Qudit plays into the Marshall right? This could be fun
  7. VicPez Oooh, a Chigorin.
  8. FM Like-a-hurricane Previous remark might seem strange
  9. VicPez These lines with d5 separating Black's queenside from the kingside are supposed to be good for White/hard for Black to play
  10. VicPez (16)
  11. FM Like-a-hurricane But I expected this if I played 1...e5. This move is critical - he prepared I guess
  12. FM Like-a-hurricane Don't recall theory very well. Only that Qxc5 is often better than dxc5
  13. FM Like-a-hurricane OK, now he avoided the critical move, which was bxc5. My plan is now f6-g6-Ng7-Nf7
  14. FM Like-a-hurricane And often break with f5 or something. I noticed he struggled with this in previous game.
  15. MrScribbles (17...Ne8) Go Qudit
  16. MrScribbles (17...Ne8) Wow, Qudit is 2200 now
  17. FM Like-a-hurricane Black's following moves are very simple.
  18. VicPez (20) This pawn/knight formation with Nf7 looks familiar -- is this the Akiba Rubinstein line?
  19. FM Like-a-hurricane Time to think
  20. FM Like-a-hurricane On kingside there is a standstill - f5 is looming but too early
  21. FM Like-a-hurricane So, Ra8 seems fine. Menacing Rxa1 and cxb4, when Bc2 would be hanging
  22. VicPez Now my first instinct is to look at 23...f5.
  23. VicPez But I don't think that works. White has too much control over that square.
  24. FM Like-a-hurricane Preparing Ra6, maybe.
  25. VicPez So I guess the threat is trading off all the rooks and winning the a-file?
  26. VicPez Or just winning the a-file.
  27. VicPez How about 23... bxc5?
  28. VicPez 24. bxc5, rather. No, that doesn't work, since d6 isn't threatened.
  29. VicPez Hard to find a move for White here. I'm still stuck on the bxc5 idea, but I don't think it works.
  30. VicPez Bb3 "preparing" bxc5 might be interesting -- if ...c4, you can argue that you've weakened Black's pawn structure, activated the dark bishop.
  31. tommeketoch (23) non f3 is miplaced. So regrouping should be highest priority I guess. No idea what are good squares
  32. VicPez If not ...c4, White can think about Qb2 to help contest the a-file.
  33. Seb32 I wanted Qb2 also but if you go Bb3 then Qb2 you allow bxc4 right
  34. Seb32 (23) cxb4*
  35. VicPez Good point. You'd think that e3 would be a great square, but that bishop doesn't have a ton else to do right now.
  36. VicPez My gut feeling is that exchanging both sets of rooks right now probably eases Black's cramping a ton.
  37. FM Like-a-hurricane Idea is to do bxc5, d6 Bxd6 Bxc5, with attack on d7 in the end.
  38. VicPez Good point Seb -- I'm not sure whether Black could take advantage of the b4 pawn though.
  39. FM Like-a-hurricane going for the a-file in return.
  40. VicPez Can White maintain the tension with 26. Qc1? Seems better than surrendering the file.
  41. Seb32 (25) yeah seems better to me
  42. VicPez Qc1 [null move] Rxa8 Qxa8 Qb2 stops any potential invasion. The question is whether black has anything in place of [null move]
  43. FM Like-a-hurricane Will be a lot of maneuvering
  44. VicPez 27. Qb1 still probably stops the a-file from meaning much.
  45. VicPez Long term, White might be able to plug the file with Nf3-d2-b3-a5.
  46. FM Like-a-hurricane Maybe alternative opening - the Sic. would have been better for some sharpness
  47. DioBrando12345 (26) for sure, 1...e5 is dulllll
  48. Seb32 e5 doesnt have to be dull
  49. DioBrando12345 (26) other than the a-file, white could also try to open the h-file and launch an attack there?
  50. VicPez You're right -- he can probably get the file open. Maneuvering the minor pieces into the attack looks like a chore, though.
  51. DioBrando12345 (28) 29.Bb3 trying to setup queen trade maybe
  52. VicPez 29. Bc1 interested me, too. Long term prepares Nf3-Nd2-Nf1-Ne3.
  53. FM Like-a-hurricane Covering all entry squares
  54. VicPez But yeah, this looks super drawish, in my addled patzer brain.
  55. DioBrando12345 (29) maybe white has something on the kingside
  56. DioBrando12345 (29) and manages to trade queens
  57. VicPez I'm not actually sure if White wants to trade queens here. My understanding of the long-term aspects of this position is very limited.
  58. VicPez Maybe Black wants ...c4, ...Bd8, ...Bb6 to try to trade off the bad bishop?
  59. DioBrando12345 (29) but you can't trade off the bishop without surrendering the a file
  60. DioBrando12345 (29) here's a funny idea, can white reroute a knight to b3 somehow
  61. DioBrando12345 (29) that might be more promising than the kingside
  62. VicPez That probably works, barring ...c4.
  63. VicPez ...whoops.
  64. FM Like-a-hurricane I want to play my bishop to b6
  65. DioBrando12345 (29) good luck w/that
  66. FM Like-a-hurricane Weakening f4 in case of an exchange
  67. VicPez I think you were right about White having a-file counterplay in this line. Not sure any of White's other pieces can help on the queenside,
  68. VicPez though.
  69. DioBrando12345 (29) true, I was thinking white could get a passer, but Ne8 should make it in time
  70. DioBrando12345 (29) but maybe it is more of a long term thing
  71. VicPez I think, as White, I'd try Nf3-Nd2-Nf1.
  72. VicPez Black mentioned a weakened f4 square -- maybe they're looking at ...g5, ...Nh8, ...Ng6, ...Nf4?
  73. DioBrando12345 (29) why Nf1
  74. VicPez Nf1 to aim for e3 once the bishop trade happens.
  75. DioBrando12345 (30) but black can just trade bishop and knight for both knights right?
  76. DioBrando12345 (30) then it is a good knight vs bad bishop endgame
  77. DioBrando12345 if you're trying to land on f5
  78. VicPez I see what you mean. Good point Mybe recapture on f5 with a pawn? No clue if that works.
  79. DioBrando12345 (30) but then black can just for g5 maybe
  80. VicPez Right, and they're the only one with active pawn breaks.
  81. VicPez Oooh, didn't see this coming.
  82. VicPez Maybe the idea is a queen trade with Na3, Qa1, Bd1, Nc2?
  83. FM Like-a-hurricane He intends Qa3, and if now Bb6 Qa3 Qb7 Bb6 Qb6 Qa8
  84. VicPez lol, right, Qa3. Why get complicated?
  85. FM Like-a-hurricane Qb7 gives away a-file
  86. FM Like-a-hurricane But I've been looking at h5 now - his knight is very far from Kside, so timing would be ideal
  87. FM Like-a-hurricane One point: If h5 f3 Bb6 and Be3 is hanging, making Qa3 impossible
  88. DioBrando12345 (31) woo h5
  89. VicPez Talk about playing the whole board...
  90. DioBrando12345 (31) no idea what it does though, maybe h4
  91. FM Like-a-hurricane h5 gh gh and I can play Qc8 with tempo (attack h3) and f5 is coming
  92. VicPez The threat is ...hxg4 hxg4 Bxg4.
  93. FM Like-a-hurricane Is one of ideas: divert White's attention to Qside, f5 remains asset
  94. VicPez (32) Bd1? Looks passive.
  95. VicPez Gives up control of f5, also.
  96. DioBrando12345 (31) right
  97. VicPez Somehow Black seems to have all the chances. Not fully sure where White went wrong.
  98. FM Like-a-hurricane Weakening his king/the black squares
  99. FM Like-a-hurricane So now Bb6 or also Qc8, planning f5
  100. VicPez Chat saved, btw.
  101. FM Like-a-hurricane See how with Nd2 instead of Nb1, White can play Qb1 in time
  102. FM Like-a-hurricane Seems more aggressive
  103. VicPez (33) I wonder if the pressure on b5 after Na3 would justify the knight's position on a3?
  104. VicPez 33. Nd2 would also possibly prepare to put the b1 knight on e4 following an f5 push and trade.
  105. VicPez d5 would be very weak there, though.
  106. DioBrando12345 (32) its really interesting to see how black squeezed something out of this position
  107. VicPez Definitely. Frankly, above my level of play. Might have to take a long look at it later.
  108. FM Like-a-hurricane Feels like all or nothing - queen goes even further away from king
  109. FM Like-a-hurricane Maybe even sacrifice at g4, with Qg4/Nh5
  110. FM Like-a-hurricane Ng5 can join
  111. VicPez How cut off is White's queen? Qa7 prepares to maneuver back into the kingside action.
  112. FM Like-a-hurricane hg hg Bg4 fg Qg4 Bf2 Nh5 Nd2 Ng5 Qa8 Qh3 Kg1 Ng3 Qd8 Kg7 Qc7 Nf7 Bg3 Qg3 and maybe I regain that piece
  113. FM Like-a-hurricane Kh6 instead of Nf7 must be much stronger. Let's recheck
  114. FM Like-a-hurricane can't find too many hiccups. His king is alone, I have three pieces around it...
  115. DioBrando12345 (34) its fireworks time!!
  116. VicPez This should be interesting.
  117. FM Like-a-hurricane If Bg4 fg Qg4 Kf2 f5 - fork and Bh4. Very typical for this line
  118. FM Like-a-hurricane http://schaakmatch.be/26e-open-geraardsbergen-hans-renette-tweede-met-79/731/#comments
  119. FM Like-a-hurricane My favorite game with this line, 12 y. ago
  120. FM Like-a-hurricane Of course there is always something to overlook...
  121. VicPez This seems sensible. Probably intending Bd1 to kick the queen out of the attack.
  122. VicPez (36)
  123. FM Like-a-hurricane But Nh5 Qe1 Nf4 seems already decent. Ng5 next
  124. VicPez Welp, nope, this is just scary.
  125. VicPez No sensible way to bring the d8 bishop into the attack, right? So long as White keeps his own dark bishop.
  126. VicPez (38) Granted, I think White probably has to hang onto that piece.
  127. Seb32 (38) you know I sort of like white here
  128. Seb32 (38) especially with say Bd1
  129. FM Like-a-hurricane Ng5 is not so convincing after Nd2. Stronger seems f5 - activating bishop (ef Bh4)
  130. VicPez Oh yeah. That's how you bring the d8 bishop in...
  131. DioBrando12345 (38) f5 is one heck of a move
  132. DioBrando12345 (38) its so scary
  133. VicPez Kinda hilarious to see how incomplete my thought process is.
  134. VicPez 39. Bd1 seems forced-ish. Knocks Black's queen onto the diagonal the bishop wants.
  135. Potatomancer (38) Nd3+ then?
  136. VicPez Oooof! Missed that completely.
  137. VicPez Wait, might the line with 39. Bd1 Nd3+ still work for White?
  138. VicPez No... Qh3+
  139. VicPez And if 39. Bd1 Nd3+ 40. Kg1 Nxe1, Black isn't guaranteed to recapture the knight.
  140. FM Like-a-hurricane Bh4 Qh2 Qe2 seems over
  141. VicPez (40) Now I think ...Nh3.
  142. VicPez Preparing ...f4.
  143. FM Like-a-hurricane Mmm. Fortunately doesn't matter, I think
  144. FM Like-a-hurricane I'll gain his queenside pieces
  145. FM Like-a-hurricane Nf7 sufficiently defends the king
  146. VicPez 43. Nd2 seems like the only chance.
  147. Potatomancer (42) Ne2+
  148. VicPez ...yup! No real chance at all, then.
  149. DioBrando12345 (42) last time I looked, white was up material
  150. VicPez And here's the Hail Mary.
  151. FM Like-a-hurricane A gift this is. Kh2
  152. VicPez Good game, folks!
