B01 Scandinavian Defence (1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Qxd5 3.Nc3 Qe5+)

This is one of the games that have been shared in this blog before, I have changed the name of the opening played in the game according to the way Deep Fritz 14 classifies them. I have added some commentary to the post that was not in the original post. Originally this was in my post B01 Scandinavian Defense: Mieses-Kotroc Variation. There is only one critical moment in this game and it can be viewed in the diagram below. My opponent was already way behind in development, but billy23xx still moved the bishop to g6 in order to keep the pawn structure intact. I answered to the move 11...Bg6 with 12.Nb5 and threatened a fork on c7. It would not have won material yet, had billy23xx played 12...Na6, but I should have the advantage on my side. Billy23xx played 12...Kd7 in the game and after I answered with 13.Nc7, it was quite clear that I was heading towards a relatively easy game.

It was a better idea to develop the knight to c6.

This game was played in the first round of a tournament called Smaller Tournament and it was played at Chess.com. I was 6th in the final standings. According to the Chess.com statistics, I played 12 games in the tournament, out of which I won 10 and drew 2 and did not lose a single game. That being said, when looking at other statistics from the tournament, they do not seem to be correct.
