64 square madness that some of us call chess...: B18 Classical Caro-Kann: 4...Bf5 sidelines (1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 dxe4 4.Nxe4 Bf5 5.Ng3 Bg6 6.f4)

B18 Classical Caro-Kann: 4...Bf5 sidelines (1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 dxe4 4.Nxe4 Bf5 5.Ng3 Bg6 6.f4)

This is the 25th game in the series of 106 blitz games I played against Kojjootti at Chess.com. With this win I increased my lead so that the score was at this point 17 - 8. This is one of the rare games where the precision of the players is not shown, it is likely due to the fact that the game was pretty much decided on move 6 when my opponent played 6...f6.
