Here're my annotations from my 90' + 30 sec game today with NM aww-rats. I really enjoyed the experience of playing a master and am grateful to the NM for doing these free simuls (he was playing 6 players at once). Any annotations or notes would be much appreciated. Thank you. Also the video of aww-rats talking the games through can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8yXr7mudvA&feature=youtu.be

I annotated it only for Black.

In general, I think NM aww-rats went easy on this game, whether it was intentional or unintentional. There wasn't a lot of pressure right from the opening. He blundered on move 25 (25.e5) and black had plenty of opportunity to win the game. Unfortunately, black was impatient, went to do some crazy stuffs, stumbled, fell, and ultimately lost the game.

There is a saying in chess "The hardest part is winning a won game" and that is correct. When you are fighting for an advantage, you may follow your guts (and sometimes it pays off). However, once you secure the advantage, you must hold on to it and play with precision. Don't play aimlessly. You must have a clear plan on how you are going to maximize this advantage that you have. 

Here is the full annotation of the game:


Good luck! Wink

Hi Boogy, I miss our exciting games.  Great annotation on both sides.  Much to learn here about the KIA from white and black.  Thanks Raja for an insightful annotation.  A lot of work went into annalyzing Boogy's game that will benefit us all.

Hi Samantha!! :) How are you? How is your chess?

I miss our games too!! I've been so super busy lately, I've had to cut down on all the games, but when I get a break, I'll be sure to send you a challenge :)
