 Game Maria, you won your game against Gillian today. Tell us something about the game. I think I got an advantage in the opening and very comfortable position to play. And I'm not sure why my opponent gave up a Day 6 spawn. It seemed to me that it was probably to play Quincy 6 instead of BC. And still, though, why it is better there, I'm not sure that it's enough for the win. OK. Shall we have a look at the game? OK, Maria. We're looking at this position in... What do they call this variation against the Sicilian? It's a very sharp variation and I was quite surprised that my opponent chose exactly this line because it looks like why it is quite aggressive here. It's hard to defend with black. What were you expecting in that position? Here my opponent started to think for a long time, maybe for 15 minutes and I was quite happy because it was clear to me that he didn't prepare for the game, at least this line. So he played 97. 97, yes. It's possible, yes. So G5 is logical. Continue it with you. I think we have to take on the 5 and Queen B6, yes. Here I thought maybe I could immediately play an IDB5 but it looks like this is not the right time because of A6 and if I take, take, take and then my opponent between is Hanin. Yeah. OK, so this is a safer... A6. A6 was played anyway, yes. And I decided to develop my last pieces through on A1. Yeah, you don't want to move your bishop out. This always looks a walk to me in front of the bishop. Actually this move is quite standard in these types of positions. So it's OK because if I play an IDB2 and then after an IDB5 the square on F3 will be weak. Yeah, and you haven't decided where you want to put the light-squared bishop yet or have you? Yeah, indeed. Well, actually my plan was to play an F4 and then an E5 or F5. OK, not do anything with the bishop. Yeah, at the moment. At the moment, yes. OK. Right, so knight F6 was played and cast Queen side. So my point wanted to make your castle as logical. Yeah. Bishop is 3. Not sure that is the best move but of course a good one. At least I think so. Yes, yeah. Queen C7. Yes, Queen C7 and here is an interesting moment because on Queen C7 I also considered F4 immediately but it looked like that black had an interesting defensive move. OK. Yes, your bishop has a problem. Yes, and I didn't want to give up my G5 bishop to exchange it for the knight. So I decided to play knight D4 and now if black plays bishop is 7 or castle then there is no longer this move, knight is 7. So and after long castle I played it for most probably after bishop is 7 I could also play F4. F4, yes. And he completes well. Kara's arm developing with bishop is 7. F5 looks logical to me. Logical, yeah. OK. Yes, king b8. OK, maybe not the best move but I don't think that it was the main mistake. I mean when I took on C6 I only considered taking on C6 with the queen and of course I am better after if I take and king a8. King a8, yeah. Yes, so I can have better structure after Fe. Maybe I also have a good G1. I mean of course I am playing for win here but the material is equal. Yeah, yeah. OK. Yeah, so that looks better, doesn't it? So what's wrong with B2? Well, I suppose this pawn apart from anything. Yes, I immediately took the pawn on A6. And after E5 I think it should be exactly we just have to play it precisely. Just to pawn up and very exposed black king and black doesn't have much counterplay I suppose is the assessment. Yes, it's not so easy to play D5 because I am protecting everything here. Yes, you even have this threat of taking on F7 as well. Yes, I was happy about it. That's quite nice, yeah. A8 then the bishop no longer protect the queen and I can have an idea with regrouping my rooks. Yeah, so it just carries on. And B6 I was very happy with this move because if bishop takes, then I have a queen before and if gf would happen in the game then I am too active here. You are chasing after that. Yeah, I played G7. G7, yeah. So you are having all the fun really in this position? Yes, I was sure that position was very important. I have just completely won, yes. Is there anything else we don't have to look at the whole game? Is any other nice at all? I like the move right at the end. I don't, okay, you can show it, yeah. Should we look at that one? I mean there are other wins here. This is rather nice, isn't it? All I need is to regroup my knight to E5 and then to strong pawns. that's right the pawn the bishop can't come this way because the pawn goes through and there's nothing much you can do after this is a variation and it's horrible because move anything can't move anything okay thanks very much Maria thank you
