1.Nf3 d5 2.g3 e6 3.Bg2 Bd6 4.O-O Nf6 5.d3 Nc6 6.Nbd2 O-O 7.c3 e5 8.e4 (D)
-
a typical kia formation
8...dxe4 9.dxe4 Qe7 10.Re1
- ( 10.Nh4 Rd8 11.Nf5 Bxf5
( 11...Qe6 12.Nxd6 Qxd6 13.Qe2 = )
12.exf5 Qd7 13.Qf3 = )
10...Rd8 11.Qc2 -
with intent of protecting cP if b4 and also protects e4
11...Bg4?! -
purpose of this move seems unclear
12.Nf1 Rd7 13.Ne3 Bc5 14.Nf5?!
- ( 14.Nd5 Nxd5?! 15.exd5 Rxd5 16.Ng5 e4 17.Rxe4 Rd1+ 18.Qxd1 Bxd1 19.Rxe7 Bxe7 += )
14...Bxf5 15.exf5 (D)
-
though this isn't the best result for white, the P plays a unintentionally vital role later
15...Ng4 16.Be3 -
in the past i never liked giving up a P and R for a B and N so i make this move instead of Re2
16...Nxe3
- ( 16...Bxe3 17.fxe3 Rad8 )
17.fxe3 Bb6?! -
worrying needlessly about b4 probably
- ( 17...Rad8 a stronger attack )
18.b4! (D)
-
schindler: gains territory on Qside. also possible was 18.Qe4 Qd6 b4 a6 a4
- ( 18.Nd2 Rad8 19.Nc4 also good for white )
18...a6 19.a4! -
threatening to drive back black and tie up Qside
19...Rad8 20.a5 Ba7 21.Kh1! (D)
-
to get out of the line of fire
21...Qd6! -
heading for d3 with the QRR cannon threatening c3 and e3
22.Bf1! -
protects d3 and defuses the cannon since the Q has nowhere to attack from
22...Qh6 23.Qe4!! (D)
-
this protects the P, d3 and is a powerful force in the center. schindler: great move could have come earlier but is perfect here too!
- ( 23.e4? Rd2! 24.Nxd2?? Rxd2 )
23...Re8?! 24.Bc4 -
pins fP and influences more territory
- ( 24.g4 Nd8 25.g5 Qd6 += )
- ( 24.b5 Nd8 25.bxa6 bxa6 += )
24...Qd6 25.Ng5?! -
hoping for a blunder from black to push to f6, but there are too many ways to counter. schindler: intermezzo! better would be an immediate attack on Kside or Qside as shown in variations
- ( 25.g4 h6 26.h4 Nd8 27.g5 Kf8 28.Kh2 hxg5 29.hxg5 += )
- ( 25.b5 Nd8 26.bxa6 bxa6 +/- )
25...Qf6 26.Nf3 Rd6 27.Rad1 Red8 28.Rd3
- ( 28.Rxd6 cxd6 schindler: d6 is a new weakness )
28...Rxd3 29.Bxd3 h6 30.Bc2 -
the B moved here with the thought that if white's fP could be pushed then the Q would have a clear diagonal to h7
- ( 30.Bc4 keeping the pin )
30...Rd6 31.g4! (D)
-
schindler: the attack against the black K begins
31...Qd8?! 32.h4! Qe7?! 33.g5! f6? -
pradtf: this move pretty well loses the game
- ( 33...hxg5! 34.hxg5 +/- )
- ( 33...g6?? 34.fxg6 fxg6 35.gxh6 +- )
34.gxh6 gxh6 35.Bb3+!! (D)
-
pradtf: a superbly powerful move - the diagonal proves to be a deadly thorn in black's side and makes possible many tactical devastations as variations below show
35...Kh7
- ( 35...Kf8 36.Rg1 Qh7 37.Rg8+ Ke7 38.Rc8 Rd7 39.Be6 +- )
36.Rg1 Rd8
- ( 36...Qf8 37.Rg8 Qxg8
( 37...Qe7?? 38.Qg4 Rd1+ 39.Kg2 Rg1+ 40.Nxg1 Qf7 41.Qg6+ Qxg6+ 42.fxg6# )
38.Bxg8+ +- )
- ( 36...Nd8 37.Nxe5! Qf8
( 37...fxe5?? 38.f6+ Kh8 39.Rg8# )
38.Ng6 Qg7 39.Ne7 Qf8 40.Rg8 +- )
37.Rg6 Qf8 38.Ng5+! (D)
38...fxg5
- ( 38...hxg5 39.Qg4 Qh6 40.Rxh6+ +- )
39.hxg5 Ne7 40.Rxh6+ -
black resigns
1-0
