[Event "Tuesdays Classical"] [Site "TA Chess Club"] [Date "2014.11.11"] [Round "3"] [White "Yevgeny Levanzov"] [Black "Yonatan Sokolov"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "C14"] 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 {I went over this variation of the French just 2 hours before the game} Nf6 4. Bg5 Be7 5. e5 Nfd7 6. Bxe7 Qxe7 7. f4 c5 $2 {A big mistake. Firstly you need to play a6, to prevent Nb5-Nd6. I had to play Nb5 immediately, with a significant advantage, but somehow thought that I can develop first} 8. dxc5 $2 Nxc5 9. Nf3 Nc6 10. Nb5 $2 {I simply forgot that Ne4 just covers d6, just a momentary blindness} Ne4 11. Bd3 $6 {Instead of admitting the mistake and just playing c3, with equality, I wanted to get an advantage at all cost. It was not a classical approach but stupidity} a6 12. Bxe4 axb5 13. Bd3 Bd7 {Qb4+ was better} 14. O-O {Qc5 and Qb4 are ideas for black} Nb4 15. Be2 Qc5+ 16. Qd4 {I have also considered Rf2} Qxc2 17. Bd1 $2 { The decisive mistake. I just had to take the knight, Qxe2 and Rfc1 - white has full compensation for the pawn. Somehow, I misunderstood that} Qc4 18. Bb3 Qxd4+ 19. Nxd4 Ke7 20. Rf3 Na6 21. Rc1 Rac8 22. Rfc3 Rxc3 23. Rxc3 b4 24. Rc1 f6 25. exf6+ gxf6 26. Re1 Kd6 27. Rc1 Nc5 28. Bc2 e5 29. fxe5+ fxe5 30. Nf5+ Bxf5 31. Bxf5 {Just lost} h6 32. g4 e4 33. Rc2 b3 34. axb3 Nxb3 35. Rc8 {My last "chance" is to go for that endgame} Rxc8 36. Bxc8 b6 37. Kf2 Nc1 38. Ke3 Ke5 39. h4 d4+ 40. Kd2 Nd3 41. g5 hxg5 42. hxg5 Nf4 43. Bb7 e3+ 44. Ke1 Kf5 45. Ba6 Kxg5 {Enough is enough} 0-1 {A psychological loss - couldn't recover from Nb5 error}
