I was winning, then I was losing, and then.....
I was playing black against an opponent with more or less my rating.
The game started with the classical giuoco piano, and I moved the Knight to f6
He was aiming for my f7 but I managed to open his f file and bring his King into the open, until on move 14 I managed to capture his Knight and I was ia a really good position to lead the game. 😃
I was playing really well exchanging pieces but also gaining a few pawns and going +5, until on move 29 I made a bad miscalculation: I thought it would be a good idea to exchange Queens being +5, but I didn't see that pawn f2 was defending the King from the attack of the white bishop on c4.
From there on I was seriously afraid of losing the game. 😩
He was going strong towards the end game gobbling up my pawns, but I started sneaking a pawn and the king up the board and he didn't seem to realize it 'till move 46 when it was over for him. Checkmate was near.
This is the GIF of the entire game.
Thank you for your time anfd 'till next time. 👐
