Article Details

Standing of the tournament

(1.e4 e5 2.f4 Nc6) Scientificalmadness has the option to enter in a Vienna game with 2. Nc3 (3.Nf3 exf4) with an inversion of move the game is a king's gambit with an awaiting move as in the Fisher Defence but less safe because the knight in the future can be attacked from a pawn in d5 (4.d4 Qf6) to defend the pawn in f4, another interesting idea was 4. ... d5 5. e5 g5 a sort of Abbazia Defence (5.Nc3) another idea is 5. e5 Qf5 6. Bd3 Qg4 7. 0-0 with a great advantage of development for the pawn (Bb4 6.e5 Bxc3+ 7.bxc3 Qf5 8.Bd3 Qg4 9.O-O Nge7) I think that Scientificalmadness would like to have a knight in e2 to attack the pawn in f4 so you see that the exchange of the bishop for the knight was good for kleinert (10.Be4 O-O 11.Qe1) Be4 and Qe1 are connected?!, peraphs the first idea was to play d5 or to set a trap next 10. ... d5 11. exd6 e.p. cxd6 12. Bxc6 bxc6 13. Ba3 Be6 14. Ne5 and the white take back the pawn (Nf5 12.Bxf5) i don't like the exchange, the bishop of the white squares is too much important in this position 12. d5 next Nd4 was a good option to take back the pawn in f4 (Qxf5 13.Nh4 Qxc2 14.Bxf4)Scientificalmadness has an advantage of development for the pawn and a good attack on the king's side (b6 15.Qg3 Ne7 16.Bh6)a bit hastly, i like the idea 16. Rf2 Qe4 17. Bd2 with the idea Rd1 - Nf5 - h4 (Ng6 17.Nxg6 hxg6 18.Qf3) well nice trick, if 18. ... Rb8 19. Qf6+ Kg8 20. Rf4 with the idea Rh4-h8# (gxh6 19.Qxa8 Ba6) ohhhh rabbit in the hat! (20.Rfc1) a slip in a difficult choice 20. Qf3 Bxf1 21. Rxf1 Qxa2 22. h4 was a way to try something and (Qxc1+ 21.Rxc1 Rxa8) without the rook in a8 with a bishop in c4 and the pawn in b5 the endgame seem draw, so how to save the game?! (22.a4 Kg7 23.a5 b5 24.d5) the chain moved and the pawns are weaker (Re8 25.Re1 d6 26.e6 fxe6 27.g4 e5) honestly seemed desperate mission (28.h4 Bb7 29.Rb1 Ba6 30.Kg2 Rf8 31.Kg3 g5!) well done the pawn g4 is a weakness so fix it to attack it them (32.hxg5 hxg5 33.Rb2 Rf4 34.Rb3 Ra4) surely good but 34. ... Bc8 to take g4 was good also (35.Rb4 Rxa5 36.c4 bxc4 37.Rb8) good idea the rook reachs the 8ª rank but unfortunately there is nothing to attack from back (c3 38.Rd8 Rc5 39.Rd7+ Kf6 40.Rh7 c2 41.Rh1 c1=Q 42.Rxc1 Rxc1 43.Kf2 Bb5 44.Ke3 a5 45.Kd2 Rc4) and the a-pawn became a new queen  0-1
