B19 Classical Caro-Kann: 4...Bf5 main line (1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 dxe4 4.Nxe4 Bf5 5.Ng3 Bg6 6.h4 h6 7.Nf3 Nd7 8.h5 Bh7 9.Bd3 Bxd3 10.Qxd3)

After what seems like forever to me, I post a never before seen opening variation, as far as this blog is concerned that is. This post also differs from the ones I have done lately in the amount of updated earlier posts, it goes back to more crazier times, when I did added more than five games a day. This will not be happening that often, but I felt that these were games that in my earlier plans should have been previously added, so I thought I will see if I can get more work done in a day than I have been able to do recently. This game was played in a team match at Chess.com and the match is being played between CYBERMEN ELITE and CHOCOLATE II on 23 boards. I played on board 1 for CHOCOLATE II and I drew my other game that I played in the match. The draw I even had to force because I would have otherwise also lost that game. There is only one game left to be finished in the match, it will not decide the winner, only the final score. We will win the match as far as Chess.com is concerned, but if the result would be altered, so that the one point that the only cheater received would be given to the player who did not cheat, then the score in the match would be a tie at the moment. However, the score currently is 21.5 - 23.5 in our favor. Then again if I remember correctly what Chess.com's policy is in these cases, I think it was that if these cheaters wins have an effect to the winner of the team match, then they correct the result, but they will not give rating points back to the players who have faced the cheater.
