MANUAL OF CHESS, "Get your N's into action before both B's are developed."


4 Bb5 Bb4
LOGICAL CHESS, "In the opening, a B is best placed for attack when it controls a diagonal passing through the center or when it pins a hostile N and renders it immobile."

In opening theory, this is the FOUR KNIGHTS' GA
ME - SPANISH VARIATION (on Bb5) - SYMMETRICAL LINE (on Bb4).


5 BxN
CHESS FUNDAMENTALS, "Before development has been completed no piece should be moved more than once, unless it is essential in order to obtain a material advantage or to secure freedom of action."

Usual here is 5 O-O which goes back to Tarrasch vs Lasker in World Championship 1908.


5 ... BxN? 6 BxP+ BxB 7 d2xB O-O 8 O-O
THE 10 MOST COMMON CHESS MISTAKES,"Nothing is more important than safeguarding your K by castling early, within the first dozen moves, if possible."

8 ... Bc6 9 Bg5
THE GAME OF CHESS, "One of the most dangerous forms of attack is the pin."

9 ... Bb5
10 BxN QxB 11 Re1 Rad8 12 Qc1 h6 13 Rd1
A COLLECTION OF CHESS WISDOM, "Don't let your opponent control open files with his R's."

13 ... RxR 14 QxR Qd8 15 QxQ RxQ
THE MIDDLE GAME IN CHESS, "It is a sound strategy to bring about an end game as soon as an advantage in the middle game proves insufficient to win by direct attack."

18 Nd3
RYBKA recommends a winning line for W; 18 a4 Ba6 +- 19 g3 gxf4 20 gxf4 f6 21 Nd7 Kg7 22 Nc5 Bc4 23 Re1 b6 24 Nd3 Ba6 25 Kf2 Bb7 26 e5.


18 ... BxN? 19 PxB gxf4 20 Rf1 Rd8 21 d4 a5 22 Rxf4 +- c6















23 Kf2
MY SYSTEM, "When the endgame is entered, let the K set himself in motion, and strive to reach the center of the board, for from this point he can, according to need make for the right or left."
23 ... c5 24 Ke3 cxd4+ 25 cxd4
THE ART OF CHESS, "A well supported passed pawn, one unlikely to be surrounded and cut off in course of subsequent operations, is often in itself a winning advantage; because even its simple existence may exert decisive restraint upon adverse force, to say nothing of its constant tendency to queen."

25 ... Rc8 26 d5 Rc2 27 Rf2 Rc8 28 Rd2
TARRASCH FORMULA: The R's proper place is behind the passed pawn, whether it be his own or an enemy.

28 ... a4 29 d6 Rd8 30 e5 Re8 31 Kf4
PORTABLE CHESS COACH, "But it's equally important to remember that a K can advance, attack, capture pieces, and control squares, especially in the endgame."

31 ... b5 32 d7 Rd8 33 Kf5 Kg7
















34 e6! PxP 35 KxP Kf8 36 h4 h5 37 Rf2+ Kg7 38 Ke7
[1-0]
