I want to learn chess openings in detail.
Hey everyone! I'm a Master willing to help analyze players' games for free. Is anyone interested?

hey ts - thanks for this. interesting comments and in line with other feedback I've had. yeh that d4 move was a stinker! and the Nf1 move seems like the way to go to break the pin. Thanks for taking the time to look through the game :)

Hi Blakeyb,
Please let me know what you think about this game. 15/10 - I'm white.
I lost on timeout - serious time pressure for last 10 moves.
I should have pushed g4 earlier I think?
Many thanks for any thoughts
After 10...Bh5, g4 is always an option but the standard way to break the pin in these types of positions is to go 11.Nf1 followed by Ng3. Another option is to ignore the pin and go Nf1-e3-f5, if black develops his dsb to e7 then he cant kick your knight with ...g6 because you can trade on e7 and then trap the culprit pinning your knight with g4.
Either way 11.d4 was terrible. In general you don't want to make this push before breaking the pin. It would be ok if you could trade everything on d4 and leave black with an IQP but since your knight is pinned you cant and black can play ...Nxf3+ at some point and wreck your structure instead.
26.Kg2 is wrong. You're correct that black can't have an attack with just one piece but he will be thinking of a way to save his trapped knight which he can do with 26...e4.
39.Bxe5+ dxe5 40.Qxe5+ looks pretty killer.
All in all it looks like an interesting game and I would definitely like to see blakey share his thoughts on it.

Thanks! This is definitely something I want to add to chesspathways.com before too long - something like a course that gets really in-depth into the systems I've used to constantly improve my knowledge of the openings I play. Make sure you're signed up there (free) so you never miss an update!

Thank you for the analysis, yes one of my main problems is coming up with a long term attack. I have no idea why i missed those ideas. Thanks...

Analysis on this would be greatly appreciated...

I'd rather analyze a game you lost or struggled with. Thanks for the annotations though! Your opponent played an unjustified flank attack and it looks like you countered with play in the center.

Should i annotate a game where i lost then?
What about one where i had a draw?

(I hope this is the right forum for this - feel free to move it if not!)
I'm starting an ambitious new project at chesspathways.com. I'm working on developing a comprehensive, free "Getting started" chess course (first 3 videos already posted!), and performing game analysis for anyone who's interested!
Feel free to post any games you would like me to analyze here, or send them to me through the ChessPathways website! I'll get to as many as I can. Before posting, a couple considerations:
-Games played at longer time controls are better! The quality of these games tend to be higher and less likely to be decided by simple blunders. If you did blunder in a longer game, at least we can look beyond the reason of "Oh, it was time trouble" and really investigate what mental patterns were responsible for the blunder and how to avoid it in the future!
-Please post your thoughts about the game if you can! The more insight I have into the thought process of the player, the better insight I can provide.
Thanks!
try learn chess or improve your chess skills and then will see...

Well show me a (long time control, annotated) game you lost where you think you did a poor job of this so I can give advice!
