[BrianWall-ChessList] Return to the scene of the crime

Sat Dec 22 17:03:45 MST 2007

The Wiehmiller French started as a game between
Bill ( White ) and me ( Black Brian) 5-30-07 -
  Bill played the opening perfectly and I have not seen this variation mentioned
in any literature anywhere. I mean you can look it up in opening books but I
haven't seen it mentioned in any random articles or annotated games.
  Bill's approach is considered hopelessly old-fashioned dating back to
Steinitz. The patzers copy the GMs mindlessly, therefore this variation is
perfect - solid, unknown, unstudied by the great unwashed masses. I have won
about 20 games it seems with a few draws. The line still keeps my interest
because I play it so badly. I only win because I am a Chessmaster, not because
I understand it. I try to learn something from each game but I can't get it
right. That keeps me challenged and motivated. I figure my imperfect knowledge
is better than their total ignorance.

The Weihmiller French has huge time gaps, for instance, no one played it
between 1901 and 1928 or between 1934 and 1938 or between 1952 and the year I
was born ( 1955 ).   In general it is simply not popular with top 30
Grandmasters for over 70 years.
  Without guidance how can a normal Chessplayer adjust?

  Bill tried a new approach this time - instead of ... Qb6, ... Bb4+ and then
Bishop back to e7 and Queen back to d8, Bill played  ... Be7, then ... Qb6 and
then ... Qd8. This allowed me to castle Kingside, a rare privilige in the
Weihmiller French. Problem is - I had no clue what to do. Again the computer
pointed out all my confusion.

  Joe Fromme traded lunch for Chess advice from Josh Bloomer and I. Anthea
Carson provided charming, comic relief, serving tea like a Geisha.

Joe Fromme -
" Anthea is so beautiful she can do whatever she likes."

 I told Joe the most important principle in Chess is to give Anthea adequate
attention. Friday night Dec 21 Anthea and I met for 3 hours with the franchise
owner of the Colorado Springs Mathnasium school. Gil wants to offer Chess as
well as math and use our book to teach from. We will see what happens.
Mathnasium is in 14 countries.

  I tried to explain to Joe that he could beat 1600 types by creating imbalances
- weaker players fall apart when things get tactical, when judgement is
required, basically whenever a position arises that requires only moves or they
haven't seen in a book somewhere. I told Joe to do to others as we would do unto
him.

  This game is  a perfect example. Bill does all right when things are
positional but when the position becomes dynamic, he falls apart quickly.
I think the main principle here is something Karpov stated -
Save all your energy for the 2 or 3 critical moments of the game.

White -
Brian "published author" Wall   2200

Black - Bill Weihmiller         1804

  1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nd2 Nf6 4. e5 Nfd7 5. f4 c5 6. c3 Nc6 7. Ngf3

Weihmiller French, 7 Ndf3 has been popular for 50 years since Benko played it.

7 ... Be7

  Instead of immediate pressure on my d-pawn Bill lets me castle.

  8. Bd3 h6?

  Bill has read all my emails where I try the Greek sacrifice on h7 - in fact
Bill hit me with the same thing when he was White and could have checkmated me
in 3 moves. 8 ... h6 runs under the heading of -
  Move your rooks, not your rookpawns.

  Understandable, though. Bill is taking me away from every tactical trick I
studied. I quickly get stupid.

  Eight people tried 8 ... Qb6, 6 tried 8 ... 0-0, ... 4 tried 8 ... f5 , 3
tried  8 ...  cd and one tried 8 ... f6

  9. O-O!

  After so many games with my King suffering on f2, castling felt nice.
  I miss those  h4, B:h7+, Ng5+ shots though.
  I don't know how to take advantage of 8  ... h6.
  The right way is probably just to ignore it and strengthen the center.

  9 ... O-O   10. Kh1

  Normally in the Weihmiller French my King can only dream wistfully
  of reaching h1. I had other ways of dealing with the coming ... Qb6
d4-pressure like moving my d3-bishop so that Nb3 becomes possible or
  maneuvering my Queen to e3 or capturing on c5  or  10 b3  Qb6  11 Bb2  or
tactcially with  10  Rf2  Qb6  11 Nf1  cd  12 cd  N:d4?
  13  N:d4  Q:d4?  14  Bh7+   K:h7  15  Q:d4.

  Another idea I got lost in is answering ... Qb6 with c4,
  one of the reasons I chose 10 Kh1. I took 6 minutes on
  this decision.

  10 ... Qb6

Bill took six minutes each for his last two moves.

11. dxc5!

  11 c4 was tricky and interesting but it
didn't seem to accomplish anything real.

11 ...  Nxc5!  12. Bc2!!

  The whole opening is designed to make this bishop shine.
  12 Bb1!  to play Qc2 and induce ... g6 is a constant theme
  in the Weihmiller French.

  12 ...  f5

  Bill took 6 minutes each for his last two moves.
  The idea is to avoid retreating after  b4.
  On most moves I can play Nb3 or b4 to
  irritate Bill's most active piece.

  13. g4!?

  Pyscho but not bad -
  the idea is to rip away pawns so my bishops
  can rake Weihmiller's Kingside.
  A normal person would play  13  ef!!  or  13 Nb3!
  or move their Queen to the e-file but who among us
  can play normally after reading Fire on Board by Shirov.
  Kamsky maybe.

  13 ...  Ne4!!

  13 ...  fg  14 Nd4
  opens lines for me
and undermines the e4-outpost
  13 ... fg  14 Nd4  h5  15 b4!!  or  h3!
  and my plan is working.

   14. Nxe4?

Played quickly according to plan but the patient  14  Qe1!!
is best, controlling f2 and preparing  gf.
if  14 Qe1  fg  15 N:e4  gf  16 Ng3!!
is good for me but that's hard
to see in advance.

14 ...   fxe4!!

14 ... de  15 Nd4!
is slightly better for me -
looking forward to my typical pawn wave.

15. Nd4

Half of Brian's wins are pawn waves -
Josh Bloomer

I thought f5-f6 is going to roll Bill up but
Fritz 9 says I am crazy and Bill is better here
after almost any move.  What does Fritz see that
I can't?

15 ... Nxd4! 16. cxd4!  Bd7!

Again I think I am doing great but Fritz says any move
is better for Bill Weihmiller. Now I took a page from the
Larry Wutt-Josh Bloomer 2007 Winter Springs game. Larry had
a bad bishop on e3 and kept trying to trade it off but Josh
would hear none of it. Larry called Bloomer's play "tricky".
I called Wutt's bishop the leper with Aids no one wants to touch.
I decided ... Bb5 was too annoying so I took time out to
quarantine the leper.

17. a4

Fritz 9 says my position is horrendous and I should trade off
my good bishop for his bad one with 17 Ba4!!, almost the complete
opposite of my plan and my judgement. If you give Fritz long enough
he switches to my move but still completely sure Bill is better.

17 ... Rac8

Bill has a great game.
the only problem is,
I don't know that.
f5 is not much of a threat,
the only problem is,
Bill doesn't know that either.

18. Bb3!!

Bill is still better but I am setting up f5
by covering up the b2-pawn, aiming at d5-e6
and removing my bishop from the x-ray hate
vision of the c8-rook.

18 ...  a5

Bill took 14 minutes for this.

19. f5

Here we go, Broncos, here we go.
IM David Vigorito always patiently
prepares his pawn breaks with  19 Be3!!
I thought my bishop might find a
better square once released from prison.

19 ...  exf5??

My idea is  20 f6  gf  21 B:h6
hitting the f8-rook so the best defense
is something like the prophylcatic 21 ... Rf7
or the center stabilizing  19 ... Bc6.

To my mind Bill's bishop has an identity crisis,
wanting to be on d7 or c6 at the same time.

Bill's move trades his critical e6-archstone for
my wild begging-to-be-relevant g4-pawn. This
opens the floodgates. I have been striving to
rake his King with my bishops all game.

Bill was nervous about g5-ideas from me.

20. gxf5!!

To me, the game was going as planned.
To Fritz, I am a human tard who got lucky after  19 ... ef??

20 ...   Bxf5! 21. Rxf5!!!

Fritz backs up my judgment here which I didn't expect.
Joe Fromme was in the house so I wanted him to see my
idea of creating imbalances. Joe has recently undergone a
Fire on Board religious conversion.
21 B:d5+  is good too but it is important to beat Bill
in a flashy manner to underscore his basic tempermental
weaknesses as a Chessplayer. He craves safety on the Chessboard
with Caro-Kann's and French Defenses. This is the poker equivalent
of a calling station that never bluffs. You can spend your Chess
life hiding from tactics but ...

King James Bible
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of
the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

Luke 21:34 "Be on guard, so that your hearts will not be weighted down with
dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day will not come
on you suddenly like a trap;

1 Thessalonians 5:4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would
overtake you like a thief;

2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the
heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with
intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.

Revelation 3:3 So remember what you have received and heard; and keep it, and
repent. Therefore if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will
not know at what hour I will come to you.

Revelation 16:15 "Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who
stays awake and keeps his clothes, so that he will not walk about naked and men
will not see his shame."

21 ...  Rxf5!  22. Bxd5+!   Kh8!  23. Bxe4!!

Preparing with 23 Be3? fails to ... R:e5 shots

23 ...  Rf2

I told Bill I would be begging to give back the exchange if I was him here.
The e4-bishop is Terrorist Central, Ground Zero.

24. Be3!!   Rxb2

The human calling station continues to ignore my
" bluffs " but even the computer is on my side now.

25. Qg4!!  Qd8

I was going to take his rook after Mark Sherbring's sugestion
24 ... Rcc2 but Fritz 9 loves 25 ... Rcc2  26 Bg1!!!!
There is no good defense already, despite my being the
exchange down for "nothing". To beat weaker players just
find positions where, as Botvinnik said, " a knight is not a knight".

26.   Bxh6!!!!

Among many wins this move stands out for killing a bodyguard
due to  26 B:h6  gh  27 Qg6  Qg8  28  Q:h6+  Qh7  29  Q:h7  checkmate.

26 ...  g5

I got a chill when I saw
26 ... Bf8  27 B:g7+   B:g7  28 Qh5+  Kg8   29 Qh7+  Kf8
30  Rf1+  Bf6  31 R:f6+??   Q:f6!!
and Black mates after  32 ef  Rc1  checkmate

The line is easily refuted by  31 Qh8+!!

27. Bxg5

27  Qh5 or  Qf5  also checkmate

27 ... Bxg5 28. Qh5+!  Kg8! 29. Qg6+!  Kf8!

29 ... Kh8  30 Qh7 checkmate

30. Rf1+!

  1-0    Bill resigns

Everything is mate now.
