B33 Sicilian: Pelikan and Sveshnikov Variations (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 e5 6.Nb3 Bb4 7.Bd3 d5 8.exd5 Nxd5 9.Bd2 Nxc3 10.bxc3 Be7 11.O-O O-O)

Welcome all to another episode of how to beat me at chess. There are more examples in this blog and even maybe better examples than this game but it will do for now. This was played in a team match called K & Ваш ход, товарищ! URAAA ! > 24. and it was played between Ваш ход, товарищ! and The Night's Watch at Castle Black. I played on board 5 for The Night's Watch at Castle Black. In addition to this loss, I played a draw against windpatzer. The current score in this 16 board match is 13 - 18 in favor of The Night's Watch at Castle Black. This means that no matter what happens in the last game, we have already secured the win. It is a good thing that other members of the team were in good shape and were able to take the points because I was lacking on that department this time. The amount of simultaneous games that I play have dropped to 202 today, so maybe I can get some more free time from those games and can concentrate on getting that next FIDE title in the nearish future. Well, when the game load has dropped to 100 or less, I may have interest to play some other chess games than my correspondence chess games. I have added one more analysed game to these two posts today: C20 King Pawn Game: Macleod Attack and D02 Queen Pawn Game: Symmetrical Variation. Pseudo-Catalan. I have also added five more puzzles that are divided into two mate in ones, one mate in two, one mate in three and one mate in four.
