Winner Of The Defence (201201) | Tonight I won the SG BAT SSGP-33. After two early victories that were not so terribly difficult, I ran into serious problems the rest of the evening.
For twenty moves or so I had to defend my pinned d-pawn, in the
end I did lose one pawn, but by then we were in a queen endgame,
and the nice thing about having a pawn less in a queen endgame,
is that you can use your king indiscriminately. After 34... Qe5+
35. Kd1 c3 36. Qe2, Black simply contemplated too long and lost
on time.
Again, one pawn down early on, I struggled with the position and
somewhat too much vodka. After offering a draw three times, yes,
this evening I was offering a lot of draws, my opponent cracked,
and played 40. Qc2. Now, I simply took the pawn, 40... Rxc4,
invaded the second rank, and mated on the g2-square.
In the final game, I was even down a quality, constantly proposing
counterplay on the queenside. I had already offered a draw three
times when my opponent missed that the h8-square was covered and,
sort of, sacrificed on the c7-pawn. Then he offered a draw three
times before I noticed and accepted. A draw won me the tournament,
and I was much too inebriated to find the win.
