My Evergreen Game D4 Opening

Sort:
DaNKoV

Hello Everyone

I just finished playing one of the most epic games I have played, I have 2 years taking chess seriously, reading posts, studing apertures, studing the games of the Masters, especially Bottvinick, Petrosian, Lasker, Spassky and Kasparov.

I droped the famous Die Walkure (Ride of Valkeries ) of Wagner on  spotify music player and started with a queen opening.

Im posting it because i think has really interesting combinations, includes something that makes good games: Sacrifices; and I was on a continous offensive mode, have to be said; big games require 2 good players as i recall one of the great masters onced said.

What made it epic for me was the fact that I had to spend 3 minutes to analyze  a position  in the middle game,(the game was a blitz game 10 min. no reposition)  which  was the decesive moment of the game.

Move 19, my opponent pinned my rook and queen with his bishop, I realized I had to come with an attack if I wanted to flip the situation, so decided to start thinking on  my f pawn for promotion.

On move 25 I decided i was going to sacrifice my queen since with the aid of the bishop i would achieve the promotion of my pawn now on the e rank . The downside was the clock i spent almost 3 minutes to analyze the situation, so at that moment i achieved the queen's exchange  my clock was a little bit less then a min or so and my oponnet 3 40s, so i knew i had to act fast and precise.


The end game i think was brilliant; the combination rook, knight , pawn was delightfull; I will say almost like a swiss clock, once I had the queen and the rook knew i had it but the only problem was again the clock, i had 10 seconds and i couldnt make a mistake.

Which I Achieved, Unfortunately I cant show the clock but the  clock registered 0:01 when i did the fatal check.

I want to clarify; I know Im far away from a MASTER level, but I think its an interesting game , hope you find it the same way.

Regarding the queen move, yes i realized it later when i analyze the game, it was  massive blunder from me, had the opportunity to resolve it though.

Now that i have analzed a couples of times, its a game full of blunders, i guess i made less errors, which gaved me the edge.

I have a long way to become a better player but i guess i have learned a lot from it, thanks for your comments...
