So... Black is a piece and a pawn ahead, has open g-line for mate attack, and
plenty of time (40s each). This is example of how one should never play in the
opening (too quick and too superficial pseudo-aggresiveness). Ease win for
black. Let's go on/\} 21. g3 Nb3 22. Qe3 f5 23. Nh4 Qe7 24. Bxc4 Nc5 25. Ng2
Bxg2 26. Kxg2 f4 27. Qd3 $4 {Inexcusable lack of attention with more than 27s
on the clock. So far I play like in a stupor.} 27... fxg3 $4 {
But my partner is going freaky as well!} 28. fxg3 $4 Nxd3 29. Bxf7+ Qxf7 $1 {
Very good! Trade pieces when you are in advantage.} 30. Rxf7 Kxf7 31. Rxd3 Ke6
{Let's take a look. Both players have 23s of time. Black is 2 pieces ahead.
White's rook is the only mobile piece. Not psychology comes into play. White
is relaxed (nothing to lose, much to win) and concentrated. Black loses
concentration because he thinks the win will come itself. This is not the case
in 1 0, unfortunately. The zeitnot battle begins...} 32. b4 d5 33. a4 e4 34.
Rd4 Rc6 35. a5 Rxc3 36. b5 Rc2+ 37. Kh3 Bc5 {Time 0:18 - 0:19. Is it possible
that 1900+ might lose such an easy position? Yes, because he is many pieces
ahead, but his morale is way behind mine.} 38. Rd1 Rf8 39. b6 {Free pawn! This
means counterattack. Naive and easy to defend, but still consumes time and
diverts attention from other pieces.} 39... Rff2 40. Kg4 Bxb6 41. axb6 Rb2 42.
h4 Rxb6 43. Rc1 Rb4 44. Rc6+ Ke5 45. Rxh6 $1 {Again - counterattack! Two
passed pawns means real threat for black. So - time ticking and panic. This
was already clear win and now what! Black is leading on time as well (0:06 vs.
0:09) but my morale is on the rising curve unlike his. This situation is like
in a football game where home team wins by 4:2 in the 80th minute of the game,
but they are struggling against away team's ferocious attakcs that brought two
goals in the last 10 minutes. In a situation where home team would strike two
goals going to the clear win of 4:2 after having drawn first half 2:2 the
morale would be totally reverted. But now Black slumps immediately.} 45... e3+
46. Kh5 e2 47. Rh8 e1=Q 48. Re8+ Kd4 49. Rxe1 {
Time 0:03.9 vs. 0:06.9 White enters premove mode} 49... Kc5 50. Rd1 Rc4 51. Rc1
{Take a rook and win - what could be easier with 6s on the clock?
Unfortunately Black is in panic and does everything but the good and quick
moves.} 51... d4 52. Rb1 Rc3 53. Ra1 d3 54. Ra5+ Kc4 55. Rxa6 Kb3 56. Rc6 Kc2
57. Rb6 Kd2 58. Rd6 Rc2 {Time 0:01.7 vs. 0:01.5. Black does not use premove
which is a must in such situations and this costs black as much as 0.7s to
make a single move, while white premoves moves by move.} 59. Re6 Kd1 60. Re4 d2
61. Rd4 {Black forfeits on time.} 1-0
