Hu everyone this was a game I just played in the albin countergambit as black. My games used to be boring as hell with 0 tactics in them. Now it seems like everygame I make is full of tactics, as lon as Iam winning everything is great Tongue out

Thanks for posting this lovely game, I really like the opening, but I always lose...
Therefore I just play the normal 1...Nf6 Yell

Went thru it quickly, but it seemed you played an excellent game.

23...Bf5! Excellent move!

One small complaint -- 24...Rhg1?! ... okay it's completely winning as far as i can tell... but still, wasn't 24...Reg1 even winninger?Wink

Finally, in aesthetic matters: I applaud your decision to have Black playing from the top, even though you played as Black, and won.

I was under the impression both were winning but this was all played on instinct i would never calculate this far lol all i know was if this dosen't work for some reason my rook on d8 is more useful than my rook on h8 because it was behind the past pawn :) that was one of the reasons the other was to trick my opponent lol like that he played Qh4 thinking maybe he can defend the pawn with Rd he would imediately see the piece was lost and would try to find counterplay.

Dekker I loose most games with the albin generally all I get from the opening is a pawn lost and my king under attack :) but nothing better than loosing online at least I learn

I got really low on time because Iam at work and if costumers arrive money talks louder :P but thats no excuse for loosing this...

I really disliked the 27. b3 move from that point forward I just felt like I was lost and kinda gave up the game

You've been reported to a number of authorities (Mr. Whippy, Chess.com and your Mum) for the heinous crime of regicide.

 

p.s. Good game Smile

The Lasker Trap, that's gotta hurt. I've caught five people with that trap since I've been on Chess.com. Here's a good one:
