Game 896295

I played a poor opening sac, but got an "ideal" queenside position at the end.

Look at this position after Black's 11...a6 move. Black is quite weak on the Q-side. How can I take advantage of these weaknesses? If 12.Qa4+ the Black bishop just retreats. Neither does 12.Qb3 win anything, but I find a nice move with 12.Nxe5!

Game 1435882

11 captures in a row. Would be two more (Rxa1 hxg7) if it was resigned.

Well I thought it was interesting.

black could have played the right defense dxe5 on move 14 but still would have an inferior position. after Nd6+ or Nc7+

I might be wrong, but looking at the position, almost everything is hanging and white just cant take everything in one move! 14...dxe4 would have helped a lot and he would not be checkmated so early. Anybody Pls correct me if i am wrong.

he must have studied CT-ART 3.0 🙂 11 captures in a row all brilliant and that Quuen sac would be really pretty😀

People thought about the game i posted as my best game was not a good one and i played for the trap or something. There is no good defense after 13.g3? Nxg3! I gave a lot of thought to this sac.The forced varitation goes.14.fxg3 Bxg3! threatening mate on h2 white must take.15.hxg3 Qxg3+ 16.Kh1 Qh3+! a good check to force the king to g1 to take the other pawn with check and continue attack that way. 17.Kg1 Qxe3+ 18.Rf2 good defensive move. Other alternative Kh1 loses to Qh6+! folowed by Rxe2.18....Bxe2 and the queen is on the run, black has the attacj with material advantage.But wait! The bishop is hanging! 14.Bxg4??Desperately to gain some material. Now a deadly attack on h2!! by 14...Ne2+! and that knight is untouchable due to mate on h2. So, white has only one forced move 15.Kg2 Qxg4+ 16.Kh1 It seems like the attack is exhausted. Black shatters white's dreams by picturesque 16...Bxh2!! and white has no good defense.That bishop cannot be touched due to 17.Kxh2 Rxe3!! and mate follows whatever black does. For example; if 18.Qxe2 Rh3 mate or if 18.fxe3 Qg3+ 19.Kh1 Qh3 mate.Here white is forced to play 17.f3 Qh3! the new threat is Bg1 or Bishop just anywhere with a discovered checkmate, so white is forced to take the knight 18.Qxe2 Bf4+ discovered check king must move.19.Kg1 Bxe3+ and queen is lost. White tries another intersting idea.17.Nc3?? Bb8 (or bishop anywhere, I chose this because it looks cool to retreat all the way back to give mate two moves later) 18.Nxe2 Qh3+ 19. Kh1 Qh2# Nice kingside attack example, my best ever. And notice how black never attacked anthing but just put the pieces to their most favorable places and only initiated the attack when white attacked back. And there is absolutely no taps involved, pure instinctive sacs!Game 1423960
