Analysis of our First Vote Chess Game
We just finished our first vote chess game with a win! Sadly, the win came because the other team timed out, but we were up a pawn with a strong position so it was a great first game for the team. A win is a win 😄.
Here's my analysis of the game. Please comment with other ideas you may have found. I used an engine as well as Decode Chess to analyze the game.
We didn't make any inaccuracies, but there were two moves we could have improved.
The first was failing to play Nxd5 and double white's pawns. I was afraid of d4, but this still led to a great position for black.
The second was the last move we played (e6). Though this is definitely a great move, we failed to even consider the plan of Ng4-e5. I haven't seen this pattern before, so it was great to learn this maneuver to use in future dragon positions! It also highlights why h3 is a useful move for white to play in these positions.
Thanks to everyone who played. I'll setup a new game since it was a lot of fun.
