Originally posted by Sophy I've just got beat by Yugi's new opening, which I have found very strange. I failed to see that big pawn pawn center coming and he got my queen, that happen sometimes ago, I have just a player on internet that got caught because he played the same game, he did not resign but got demolished. Anyway, here is my game.
The reason why he got such a big center is because you didn't take it when you had the chance. It was just a case of you playing passive and him squeezing the life out of you.
First 3.c4.
Second 4.d4
Third 5.d4
Fourth 6.d4
Fifth 7.d4 the point is you waited so long to play a center pawn... I mean it didn't turn out to be so bad but that's because he was focused on playing his little weird opening and then 9.dxc5? A waste of a tempo trading the pawn better is 9.Ne5 Bb7 10.f4 and now look at you go! And what was the point of Rb1 if instead you take the position after 10.f4 and move your rook back to a1 and his pawn back to g7 then it is even better than before!
