MT Sustarsic: Win against Mary, Patrick

Win against IM Mary, Patrick of Argentina http://www.iccf-webchess.com/MakeAMove.aspx?id=297383. He is 54 years old, and works in European Central Bank in Western France.

11.Nd4 Novelty? The ChessOK opening tree http://chessok.com/?page_id=352 gives 6 games with 11.Bf4, but none with Nd4. I thought I'll vary with this move.

13...Qc8 ?! This hands over the initiative to White. Perhaps better was 13...Nh5.

14.e4 ! Losing no time to occupy the centre. Now Black makes a series of aimless moves.

20.Qg4 ! There is a shortage of defenders near the Black king.

20...g5 ? Somehow, most engines want to play this. But if you force a few moves down the line, they realize their mistake.

23...Kg7 ? 23...Bb4 was necessary.

28...a4 ? With so many White pieces pointed at the Black king, how can he make a pawn move on the other wing?

29.Bc3+ ! And Black resigned after a few more moves. This is my first win in the tournament.


But SIM Korze, Dr. Danilo continues to lead the tournament with 7.5 points, http://www.iccf-webchess.com/EventCrossTable.aspx?id=22830 :
