20 Aug '14 12:16 / 1 editI've lost a clan game recently, and still don't know if I could do better at the end.
"Me Black".
summary
Should White take Pawn c5?
Qxb7?
Qxb7?
Now I was sure I was better.
I "won the xchange", but had White in fact a trap in their mind?
31. ... Ne3
I still think it was good, albeit the only good move. I think...
33. ...Qf7
Was 33. ... Qa7 better?
35. ... Qc7?
I have a feeling it was wasting of time.
36... Qc5?
I was thinking of 36. ...Qe5 also, and I think now it was better. I guess I was hoping to get white Bishop on c1 by double attack. It was too slow.

I'm such a patzer old stick in the mud. As black I'd have saved the pawn, lost the fianchetto bishop and lost an ugly game.

Or brought my Q over to KS and acted like I was Petrosian, and lost like a poor imitation of The Iron Tiger.
