C54 Giuoco Piano: 4.c3 Nf6, main lines with 5.d4 and 5.d3 (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.c3 Nf6 5.d3 d6 6.Nbd2 a6)

This game was played in a team match called AoC vs R&J TM. It is a match between Art of Chess and Romeo and Juliet. I played board 12 for Romeo and Juliet in this match until my opponent lost both his games on time. This was played on 100 boards so it was a quite large team match and match ended with a score 111 - 89 in favor of our opponent Art of Chess. Sadly there was both timeout losses and accounts were closed during this match. It seems that both of these occur in every team match which is really unfortunate.

The game featured only small inaccuracies until we reached the position after my 9th move. It can be seen below. In that position my opponent played 10.a4, which gave me an opportunity to get a clear advantage. I was able to find the best move 10...d5 in reply, so I was clearly better at that point.

10.Bxe6 and 10.Ng3 were better than what JogadorAmador played in the game.

I was only able to be on the better side of the board for a couple of moves, with my 13th move I lost some of my advantage and my 14th move took all the advantage away. It did not last long because JogadorAmador's 15th move tipped the advantage clearly in my favor again.
