1.Nbd2 At this moment I noticed that the e4 weakness in white's position is defended awkwardly, and if I add more pressure on e4, white will have to go into unusual setps to defend it. Therefore, I came up with the following maneuver. 1...Qc7 2.Rfe1 b5 3.Bf4 Qb7 Now I have an ideal setup pressurizing e4 and white pieces will be tied down to defend it while I can draw up my next plan. 4.Re2 Here white intends to defend e4 with major pieces (two rooks) and hence, his queenside is now not adequately defended. My next move is to make inroods into whites queenside as I have an unopposed dark squar bishop and some pieces alreadly lined up on that side of the board. After sometimes, when you leave the engine, my plan of b4!! becomes engines top move! 4...b4 5.Rae1 bxc3 6.bxc3 Nh5 7.Bh2 Rfd8 Again, this subtle move is engines top choice. It prevents whites plan of pushing e5 and also creating threats of playing an eventual d5 to open up the positions for m two bishops. 8.Qe3 I noticed that whites pieces are clumsily positioned on the e-file and the only way for white to justify the placement of three major pieces on a closed file is to play e5 and if i can prevent his e5 maneuvr then whites whole set up doesnot make sense and he has to move back all major pieces and in doing so, will lose precious tempos. 8...e5!! 9.Rb1 Qd7 10.c4 Rab8 11.Ree1 f5! This move was not on engine's top list, but when I played it and leave the engine, on, it slowly comes up as the engine top move. This move has multiple purposes: 1. it threatens to go to f4, permamently imprisoning whites dark square bishop or it can exchange itself on e4 and opening up the light's square bishop. When we have the bishop pair, we must try to open up the positions, lines and diagonals. 12.exf5 gxf5 13.Qg5 Qf7 14.Rxb8 Rxb8 15.Qe3 Bf6! A sutble positional move! This is the types of moves that I enjoy the most in my games. It restricts the Knigt on f3, creats a space for the king to move on g7 in an eventual back rank check, and also creates a move for the queen to go to g7 to pressure g2 as black enjoys an unopposed light square bishop. Also, this moves controls the critical g6 square for any inroads by whites attacking pieces. 16.Qa3 Rd8! Also engine's top move! At this stage I saw that my opponent is severely shor of time on his clock and he is only playing with his queen. So, I though to make the position more dynamic by sacrificing temporarily a pawn for more activity and attack on his king. 17.Qxa6 Bb7 18.Qb6 Ra8 19.Rb1!! This is an excellent move by my oppoent that I had not seen in my calculation. It forces my active bishop to be exchanged for his passive night. 19...Bxf3 20.Nxf3 e4 Here the engine shows a large advantage for white and I cannot understand the logic. At this moment my opponent had only two minutes for about 8 moves to make, so my plan at this stage was to make the game as complicated as possible to force my opponent to make a mistake, So this psychological trick is justified here as chess afterall is also a sport! 21.Nd4 Be5 22.Bxe5 dxe5 23.Ne6 Re8 24.Nc7 Rc8 25.Nb5? First inaccuracy by my opponent under extreme time pressure. He moves his knight to a much passive square and in the meantime blocks his active rook. 25...Nf4 26.Kh2 Ra8 27.g3 Nd3 My pieces is coming close to his king and nasty threats are all over the board. a2 is hanging, f4 is in the picture and ideas of Qh5-f3 also in the are. In the meantime, I have to make sure there is no check mate against my king as my king is also kind of weak. 28.Nd6 Qh5 29.Qc7!! Again a very strong move by my opponent. Now, I have to deal with the threat of Rb8+ and make sure my king does not checkmated. Here my opppnent had seconds left on his clock and I without too much calculation just saw that if he exchange the rooks, his queen is far away and cannot well coordinate with his knight and If I have h5, I will get checkmated. That is why I slammed... 29...Qf3 When this move was made my opponent, already very nervous not to lose on them murmmered "Oh my Lord", took his head into has hands and slid back on his chair! 30.Qf7+ Kh8 31.Qf6+ Kg8 Here, he went for perpetual check and avoided not to lose on time and I of course accepted. But, Now the engine shows that I am probably lost here....but he had to find 10 engine moves in 10 second that was not possible! I think, I made the right decisions in this game, but much credit to my opponent that he could counter all these ploys, but one thing is for sure that he was really suffering mentally during the whole game and must have been extremely relieved to get a draw! 1/2-1/2
