[Event "ICC 90 30"] [Site "Internet Chess Club"] [Date "2016.11.24"] [Round "?"] [White "sockbuf"] [Black "OzymandiasVII"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "B51"] [WhiteElo "1791"] [BlackElo "1819"] [Annotator "CK"] [PlyCount "72"] [EventDate "2016.??.??"] [TimeControl "5400+30"] 1. e4 {5430} c5 {5423} 2. Nf3 {5453} d6 {5451} 3. Bb5+ {5427 I'm not really comfortable with the Open Sicilians (or any opening really) so I decided to go for something that's sound but not as theoretical.} Nc6 {5474} 4. O-O {5423} a6 {5453} 5. Bxc6+ {5443} bxc6 {5474} 6. h3 {5355 I was not sure whether to place the Knight on c3 or d2, so I decided to make a useful waiting move denying the Black Bishop the g4 square.} e5 {5440} 7. d3 {5294 Still not sure about where to place the Knight. I was thinking about all sorts of things, such as Nd2-c4, Nd2-f1-g3, Nc3-e2-g3 etc.} Nf6 {5390} 8. Bg5 {5019 At first I was hesitant to play the Bishop due to a future Rb8 attacking the b2 pawn, but after 5 minutes I couldn't find anything better to do. I wanted the Bishop on e3, but thought it would be better to retreat to e3 after inducing h6. Still not sure where to put the Knight.} Be7 {5299} 9. Nbd2 {4814 I don't really have a set plan here. Nd2 is the most flexible move, keeping Nc4 and Re1-Nf1 in mind.} O-O {5197} 10. Re1 {4728 Still trying to be as flexible as possible, not committing to anything.} Rb8 {5065} 11. b3 {4686} h6 {4850} 12. Be3 {4004 12 minutes. I was not sure how to organize my pieces so that they are not blocking each other. All Bishop moves seemed bad.} (12. Bxf6 Bxf6 {Only helps Black unravel.}) (12. Bh4 {I was afraid of} g5 13. Bg3 Nh5 14. Bh2 Nf4 {I thought my position was terrible here.}) 12... Be6 {4558} (12... d5 {is the move I looked at before playing Be3. I calculated} 13. Nxe5 Qc7 14. Bf4 Bd6 15. Ndf3 {didn't like it because it probably lost material, but played Be3 anyway because suddenly I realized that 12 minutes had mysteriously gone past and I had to make a move and forgot all about the mixed mess of analysis in my head.}) 13. Nc4 {3317 20 minutes.} ({I initially liked} 13. Qc1 {preparing Nc4 in case Black plays Bxc4 and tries to invade on the b file with Rb2, as well as looking at the h6 pawn with the Queen Bishop battery.}) 13... Nh7 {4443 This is where I started to get annoyed at how easily my opponent is playing. He's playing quite quickly and seems to have an effortless plan to execute while I don't have anything to work with.} ({The reason I played Nc4 was because I eventually liked the position after} 13... Bxc4 14. bxc4 Rb2 15. Qc1 Qb6 {and thought that the lack of a light squared Bishop around his King would hurt Black more than the b file would hurt me.}) 14. Qd2 {2700 10 minutes. Mostly spent looking at sac opportunities after Qd2 f5 exf5 Bxf5. Nxe5 dxe5 Nxe5 looked interesting, but I could not make anything out of it. Still, after 10 minutes I thought there was no better move.} f5 {4320} 15. exf5 {2505 4 minutes checking out Bxh6 or Ncxe5. } Rxf5 {4346 Did not really expect this. I didn't believe the Rook was an actual threat here.} 16. Qa5 {2126 6 minutes. I didn't really like my position here, so this was essentially a bail out attempt. All my pieces felt like they were on their ideal squares (except the Rook on a1) but they were not really doing anything. A Queen exchange favors me.} Qf8 {4300 And suddenly I realize Rxf3 is a major threat.} 17. Ncd2 {2058} Ng5 {4242 This felt harmless to me, letting me exchange pieces to relieve the burden of defense.} 18. Nxg5 { 1484 10 minutes. I have about 25 minutes left now, while my opponent has spent less than 20 minutes on his clock. I spent most of my time making sure the position after Bxg5 is not lost.} Bxg5 {4258} 19. Qxa6 {1073 7 minutes making sure I can get away with this.} Bxe3 {4263} 20. fxe3 {1085 I felt good about my position here. I didn't feel Black had any serious threats. However I have only 18 minutes left to his 70.} Rg5 {4279} 21. Ne4 {773 5 minutes thinking about Rxg2 Kxg2 Bxh3 Kxh3 Qf3+} Rg6 {4255} 22. Rf1 {450 Unsure how to defend, wasting valuable time. Looked at Rf1 Bxh3, and thought abou Qxc6 as an alternative, giving away the h3 pawn in return of bringing the Queen back. Moved mostly because I was running out of time.} Qe7 {4273} 23. Rf3 {260 Spent valuable 3 minutes to make this move.} Qh4 {4299} 24. Kh2 {214 Made kind of blindly to make sure there are no sacs. Probably a mistake.} d5 {4260 With 2 minutes on the clock, I'm not really in the state where I can foresee my opponent's moves. No matter what the position is when the clock is down this much I will find a way to lose.} 25. Nxc5 {162} e4 {4279} 26. dxe4 {90} dxe4 { 4306} 27. Nxe6 {55} exf3 {4182} 28. Nf4 {51} Qg3+ {4203} 29. Kg1 {74} Rd6 {4153 } 30. Qc4+ {87} Kh8 {4174} 31. Qe4 {71} fxg2 {4133} 32. Nxg2 {38} Rbd8 {4157} 33. Rf1 {41} Rd1 {4164} 34. Qc4 {37} Qxh3 {4148} 35. Qe2 {35} R1d2 {4117} 36. Rf8+ {33} Kh7 {4120 White resigns} 0-1
