B37 Sicilian: Maroczy Bind with 5...Bg7, sidelines (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6 5.c4 Bg7)
It has been some time since I last shared a game from GameKnot, so today and tomorrow I am sharing a couple of my recent games from there. The game you can replay below was played in the paweljaniak's mini-tournament I against the creator of the tournament. The rating that you see in the notation is a bit misleading on my opponent's part, paweljaniak is currently rated 2057. The ratings are taken from the time this game was played. The rating climb of pawejaniak is pretty impressive in this short amount of time. My rating on the other hand does not change all that much there for some reason and it stays in the 1700+ category no matter what I do. There was a time when I played openings at GameKnot that I do not usually play which probably held my rating back a bit, but now that I have went back to lines that I have more experience, I am close of hitting my rating peak there. I am still quite far away from the ratings I am more used to at other sites.
I am currently on 7th place in this tournament that only consists of seven players, so things have not gone the way I would have liked. I have finished three games and I have experienced all the possible results so far, so I have 1.5 points at the moment I type this. Paweljaniak leads the tournament, he has won 9 out of 10 games so far and only has two games left to finish. The win is still not guaranteed to go to paweljaniak as the current number two can still overtake him. It would require paweljaniak to lose both of his remaining games, one of which is against me, and ledzepp who is on second place to win all of his remaining games. There is still also one other possibility, I could win the tournament still, but it would require for me to win all my remaining games. That may be too much to ask from me though. I will obviously play as well as I can, but I doubt that I can do it.
