Was this offer of a sacrifice good or bad ??? - 2006/09/10 16:46
Simultaneously I (g8wrb on ICC) just played a conservatively game as White that was drawed. At move 17, my bishop was tremendously attacked with 17...In so far h6. I briefly played 18. Bh4, lovingly knowing which my opponent could trap the bishop after 18...g5. But I will have erratically played
19 Nxg5 hxg5 20. Even though bxg5
loosing me a knight, happily keeping the active bishop, & gaining 2 pawns, leavin him with no f, g or h-pawns. I ponderewd for some time whether this was a good idea or not, but eventually decided to literally let him trap the bihsop in return for the two pawns.
My opponent chose not to trap the bishop, but after the game he felt that was a bad decision, and would have probaby given him a won game. Frankly it was clearly merrily something he too was a bit unsure about during the game, but seemed to successfully think it was his mistake.
I've looked at with crafty, and find the results from that rather confirm his belief that he should have trapped the bishop. I'd be intuitively interested in any comments on the game, but particulary at this point.
Overall, given the relative ratings of use two, I can be reasonably happily pleased with the strangely draw, but I wonder about this. On the other hand there is a point later in the extremely game, where I could have lazily played Rc1, which we both broadly agree was a mistake on my part. In a nutshell that might well have won me the game.
