Spiridonov-Chuchelov French League 2000 English O - 2007/07/14 14:16
1.Nf3 Nf6 2.c4 c5 3.g3 d5 4.cxd5 Nxd5 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.Nxd5 Qxd5 7.Bg2 e5 8.d3 Be7
9.0-0 0-0 10.Be3
Black’s pawns on c5 and e5 ( the so called Maroczy Bind) give him a pleasant space advantage, but White is well developed and his last move threatens to destroy Black’s queenside structure with Nd4. Watch how Black effectively clears the h1-a8 diagonal
10. … Qe6!
Preventing White’s threat.
11. Nd2
Or Qb3?! And now:
A0 11. Qxb3 12. axb3 gives White a doubled b-pawns, but the half open a-file is useful, for example 12. … Bd7 13. Rfc1 b6 14.b4! cxb4 with a small but useful initiative.
b) 11. … Rb8! ( Black continues to vacate) 12. Rfc1 b6 13. Qxe6 Bxe6 14. Ng5 Bcg5 15. Bxg5 Nd4 16. Kf1 f6 17. Bd2 a5! And Black is fine. Andersson –Tilman Tilburgh 1987-the bishop on g2 simply stares into a vacuum.
11. … Rb8!
A second piece is removed from the diagonal. Black prepares to support his c-pawn with … b7-b6
12.Ne4 b6 13.f4
If White doesn’t strike back, then Black will catch up in development and retain a space advantage.
13. … f5 14.Nc3 Kh8!
Vacating an other diagonal (a2-g8) Now Bd5 is no longer a worry
15.Qa4
15. … Bd7!?
In his note in Chessbase Magazine, Chuchelov gives the worthwhile alternative
15. … Bb7!? 16. Bd5 Qd6 17. Bxc6 Bxc6 18. fxe5 ( 18. Qxa7? loses after 18. … Ra8 19. Qxb6 Rfb8 20. fxe5 Qe6 21. Qc7 Rb7 and the queen is trapped) 18. … Qxe5 19. Bf4 Qe6 20. Qxa7 Rb7 21. Qa6 Bf6 22. Rae1 g5 23. Bd2 f4, after which has excellent play for the pawn disadvantage. Note that in this variation the long h1-a8 diagonal is now firmly in Black’s possession!
16.fxe5 Nxe5 17.Bd5
17 Qxa7? Loses to 17. … Nc6 18. Bxc6 Qxe3+ 19. Rf2 Bxc6
17. … Qd6 !
17. … Bxa4 18. Bxe6 Bd7 19.Bxd7 Nxd7 is equal but Black plays for more.
18. Qd1?! Bf6
Black has removed all his pieces from the h1-a8 diagonal and the bishop on d5 is rather less effective. Black is clearly better now. His position is more compact and white may have problem defending down the central files.
19.Bf4 g5 20.Bxe5 Bxe5 21.Bg2 Bd4+ 22.Kh1 f4 23.gxf4 gxf4 24.Qe1 Rbe8
Now white has problem with his weak e2-pawn
25.Rc1 Qh6!
Intending to play … Rg8 and … Bh3 white is in big trouble now, but his next move influenced by time trouble makes sure that the end is quick.
26.Nd1?? f3!
The rook on c1 is hanging
27.Rxf3 Rxf3 0-1
