This is the first game of the tournament.My opponent was in control for almost all of the game, but I won by 'exploting' the back rank weakness. I have attempted to annonate as much as possible , I hope I learn a lot from this game ( hope others learn too !!). Any comments , remarks , suggestions are welcome ( especially at the moves indicated)

10.e5! is the critical answer to 9...Re8.

The variation is very sharp, and IMO rather too risky for Black. The other move (9...Bg4) is almost certainly safer.

Your variation gives 14. Qxe4, doesn't black win the queen by moving his with a pin.

You said that 12. Ncxe4 Bf5 13. Bf3 Bxe4 14. Qxe4+ was better than playing 12. Qxe4, but black could then pin your queen with his rook by moving his queen off of the e file.

Actually I am still stuck at 10 e5 ! ( suggested by pfren). I am unable to figure out how white defends after 10 ...Nfd7 ( and attackig the e pawn)

Or wait the bishops pinned. Maybe just Qb3 pinning the rook.

My engine gives simply dxe6 thinking that the protected passed pawn is worth the pressure down the e file.
