[Event "ICC 30 30"] [Site "Internet Chess Club"] [Date "2011.10.27"] [Round "?"] [White "bhandelman"] [Black "W4IP"] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "C50"] [WhiteElo "1045"] [BlackElo "1191"] [Annotator "Handelman,Benjamin"] [PlyCount "33"] [EventDate "2011.??.??"] [TimeControl "1800+30"] 1. e4 {0:30:21 The best and only opening I use as white.} e5 {0:30:21} 2. Nf3 {0:30:43} Nc6 {0:30:48} 3. Bc4 {0:31:00} Nd4 {0:30:54} 4. O-O {0:29:43 A poisoned pawn on e5 using an opening trick I was not familiar with. If I had captured it with my Knight very bad things could have happened, starting with my opponent being able to threaten recapture with Qg5. The computer believes I could possibly have come out even but I doubt it, and fighting that kind of battle with all my queenside pieces locked up and his Queen on the warpath would have been a quick recipe for disaster.} (4. Nxe5 Qg5 5. Bxf7+ Ke7 6. Bxg8 Qxg2 $19) 4... d6 {0:29:43} 5. c3 {0:29:43 A poisoned pawn on e5 using an opening trick I was not familiar with. If I had captured it with my Knight very bad things could have happened, starting with my opponent being able to threaten recapture with Qg5. The computer believes I could possibly have come out even but I doubt it, and fighting that kind of battle with all my queenside pieces locked up and his Queen on the warpath would have been a quick recipe for disaster.} Ne6 {0:28:41} 6. d4 {0:28:40 What I thought was an obvious move, leading to me having one more pawn in the center than him while also freeing my dark square Bishop.} exd4 {0:26:36} 7. cxd4 {0:28: 26} c6 {0:25:48} 8. Nc3 {0:26:38 Developing my Knight to add extra pressure to d5 while guarding e4.} Nf6 {0:25:51} 9. e5 {0: 24:11 Hoping to use my pawn majority in the center along with superior development to my advantage.} d5 {0:24:48} (9... dxe5 10. dxe5 Qxd1 11. Rxd1 Nd7 $18) 10. Bd3 {0:22:39} Ne4 {0:23:55 Here I see I can end up a pawn ahead with complete control of the center.} 11. Nxe4 {0:21: 27} dxe4 {0:23:51} 12. Bxe4 {0:21:49} Be7 {0:23:48} 13. Be3 {0:19:13 Finally developing my bishop.} O-O {0:23:46} 14. Qd3 {0:16:55 Not seriously intending to capture on h7 but more to protect my light square bishop while provokign one of his King side pawns to move.} Qa5 {0:22:30 I was perplexed by this move as it did not threaten any pawns or pieces and actually removed pressure from d4. The only thing I could think was he was intending Rd8, but considering I could capture on h7 with check I was no concerned.} 15. Bxh7+ {0:15:14} Kh8 {0:22:52} 16. Be4 {0:12:11} Rd8 {0:22:13} 17. Qc3 {0:11:46 Black resigns} 1-0
