1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Nc3 { All according to plan for me so far... } 3...

about all sorts of ways to attack the f7 square already. } 4. d4 { After
some consideration. I couldn't allow her to build a big centre after ef d5.
} 4... fxe4 5. Nxe5 Nxe5 6. dxe5 { I definitely felt in good shape here.
Her King's Knight is restricted and Qh5+ is tempting, but it's not quite
time for it yet! } 6... Bb4 7. Bd2 { Qd4 or Bc4 were the moves but I had
only considered Bc4 followed by Qd5 eyeing f7. I didn't like the
possibility of Bxc3+ doubling my pawns on the c file. I hadn't considered
Qd4 at all. } 7... d5 8. exd6 ({ I also considered } 8. Nxd5 Qxd5 9. Bxb4
Qxe5 { staring at b2 but I just didn't like it. Of course, } 10. Bc3 { at
the end of that line makes everything OK! Surely taking en passant was the
only way forward! }) 8... Qxd6 9. Nxe4 Qe7 10. Qe2 (10. Bb5+ { was killer
here, but I just didn't see it. I saw the liquidation after Qe2 and thought
it was safe enough to be a pawn up getting into the endgame. }) 10... Bxd2+
11. Nxd2 Qxe2+ 12. Bxe2 Bf5 13. O-O-O Ne7 { I was pretty sure she was going
to castle queenside here... } 14. Nb3 O-O 15. Rhe1 { Hoping for her to
forget her Knight and run into Bc4+ and Rxe7! } 15... Ng6 16. Nc5 b6 17.
Na6 Ne5 ({ I had expected } 17... Rac8 18. Bc4+ Kh8 19. Bd5 { and Bb7 then
exchanging at least one pair of Rooks. }) 18. f3 ({ Only after did I start
thinking } 18. f4 { was probably better! }) 18... Ng6 19. Bc4+ Kh8 20. Bd5
({ I did consider } 20. g4 Bc8 21. Nxc7 { but I didn't like leaving the f3
pawn backwards! }) 20... Rad8 21. Be4 Rxd1+ { Surely every liquidation was
playing into my hands... } 22. Rxd1 Bxe4 23. fxe4 Nf4 24. g3 Ne6 { I was
getting worried about ...c5 at this stage, leaving my Knight a bit stuck! }
25. b3 h6 ({ I had hoped for } 25... Rf2 26. Nxc7 Nxc7 { and } 27. Rd8+ {
with a back rank mate coming! }) 26. Rd7 Rf1+ 27. Kb2 Re1 28. Nxc7 Rxe4 29.
Nxe6 Rxe6 { I was quite sure I was completely winning now. } 30. Rxa7 h5
31. Rd7 ({ I had also considered } 31. Ra6 { , but I thought this was more
clever and also safer. }) 31... Re2 32. h4 Re3 33. Rd3 Re6 34. Rd5 ({ Black
resigns. I was expecting her to play on with ( } 34. Rd5 { ) } 34... g6 35.
Rg5 { and then I'd push my Queenside pawns. Tense game! I had a splitting
headache all through it! Time remaining 33 minutes for me and 51 for Alice.

it is limited. } 2. exd5 Nf6 3. Nf3 Nxd5 4. d4 Nc6 ({ I need to play } 4...
c5 { here instead, I immediately regretted this move when he played his
next one... }) 5. c4 Nf6 ({ Obviously not } 5... Ndb4 6. a3 Na6 7. b4 { and
8.b5. What a mess, now I have to completely back-pedal. This was already
not an experiment I was enjoying! }) 6. d5 Nb8 { I hated my position here,
but it's not like his development is a million times better, it's just
easier for him. Tempi burned, not good. } 7. Nc3 e6 8. Bg5 Be7 9. Be2 O-O
10. O-O exd5 { I felt close to equality here. } 11. cxd5 Nbd7 { I had
considered h6 chasing his Bishop off, but I never like disturbing the
King's shield! } 12. Nb5 a6 13. d6 ({ I had expected } 13. Nc3) ({ This
move made me squirm in my chair again. I definitely didn't want to play ( }

rude } 15... Qxd6 $1 { Of course that would have been too simple... })
15... Ne5 16. Rc1 Nxf3+ (16... Nc6 { was better and still holds everything
together. The intermezzo that I played was too much to ignore though! })
17. Bxf3 Qd8 18. Nxe7+ Qxe7 { I was feeling the pressure here again,
knowing that Re1 was coming. } 19. Re1 Be6 20. Qe2 Rad8 21. Qe5 { It took
me a while to see that he was aiming to follow up with Rc7 here. } 21...
Rfe8 22. Rc7 Rd7 23. Bxf6 gxf6 ({ I'm pretty sure by Gabriel's reaction
that he hadn't considered this move, but had just expected Qxf6. I had
calculated it all out to potentially just losing the b7 pawn after } 23...

} 23... gxf6 24. Qg3+ Kf8 { left me in better stead and not a pawn down
deep in the endgame. I was already thinking a draw would be a good result
from this game after making such a muck of my opening. }) 24. Rxd7 fxe5 ({
I took a while rejecting } 24... Qxd7 25. Qxf6 { which is just better for
white. }) 25. Rxe7 Rxe7 26. Rxe5 Rc7 { I had seen this and now I knew I
should be OK after Bxa2 comes... } 27. h4 Bxa2 28. Re8+ Kg7 29. Rb8 Rc1+ {
I have to abandon the b7 pawn, but I'll get f2 or b2 in exchange! } 30. Kh2
Rc2 { I knew this should be a draw now, especially if, ideally, I can find
a way to swap off the rooks! } 31. Rxb7 Rxf2 32. b3 Bb1 33. Bd5 Bd3 34. Ra7
Bb5 35. Kg3 Rf6 { Now the queenside is locked up and my rook also keeps
tabs on f7. Nice. } 36. Kh3 Bf1 { I offered a draw here which, after some
consideration, Gabriel agreed to. Good game. I felt under pressure for most
of it but was happy to equalise! Time remaining 27.29min for Gabriel and
29.03min for me. } 1/2-1/2

1. d4 { I had been hoping to get a game with Fergal who I had met at the
Ennis Open in November 2021 and who initially informed us all of the
tournament in Sligo! He had been on the board next to mine in the final
round at Ennis. } 1... Nf6 2. e3 { I thought this was passive. } 2... d5 3.
Bd3 c5 { I was already improvising here, but striking for the centre can
hardly be bad! } 4. c3 Nc6 5. f4 { This looked dodgy to me, immediately
leaving a hole on e4. } 5... c4 6. Bc2 ({ I thought } 6. Be2 { was better,
but that immediately lets my knight in to e4. }) 6... Bg4 7. Nf3 e6 8. Nbd2
b5 { I wanted to plant a knight on e4 or d3 as soon as possible. } 9. b4
Ne7 ({ I had considered } 9... cxb3 { but that allows him to improve his
light squared Bishop which is already quite hampered. }) (9... a5 $1 {
would have given me a big advantage, but it wasn't on my radar at all. My
plan was to get in to e4 at all costs now! }) 10. O-O Nc8 11. a4 Nd6 12.
axb5 Be7 13. Qe1 Bf5 14. Bxf5 exf5 15. Ne5 { For some reason I hadn't seen
this, but it's not a hole like e4 or d3, although that had been my first
reaction to it. I can chase him away with f6 at some stage! } 15... Nxb5
16. Bb2 O-O { Time to complete my development. } 17. Ndf3 { I liked seeing
this, as I was already envisaging trapping his knight on e5. } 17... Qc7 {
I considered that this move would have seemed rather nebulous if he hadn't
thought about his knight getting trapped, but of course it's to take away
the c6 escape route! } 18. Nh4 g6 19. Nhf3 ({ I thought his idea had been }
19. Nef3 { , not this! My plan still stood! }) 19... Ne4 20. Rc1 f6 21.
Nxg6 hxg6 { His Queen can't come in to g3, so I should have nothing to
fear! } 22. Nh4 Kf7 { I wanted to triple my heavy pieces on the h-file and
maximise the pressure on h2. } 23. Ra1 Rh8 (23... a5 { was better, but my
plan was set down the h-file. }) 24. Rf3 Rh6 { I knew this game should be
in the bag, but the resistance to come was so much greater than I could
have imagined! } 25. Rh3 Rah8 26. Ra5 Qb7 { My idea was Bd8, Ke6, Qh7 and
Bb6 as necessary. } 27. Ba1 Bd8 28. Ra2 Ke6 ({ I had calculated what
happened next and also ( } 28... Ke6 { ) } 29. Nxg6 Rxh3 30. Nxh8 Rxh8 { ,
both of which are fine for me. }) 29. Nxg6 Rxh3 30. gxh3 Rxh3 31. Kh1 Rh6
32. Rg2 Qf7 ({ I had been planning } 32... Qh7 { which crazily runs in to }
33. Nf8+ { forking King and Queen! Scary! }) 33. Qg1 Nbxc3 34. Bxc3 Nxc3
35. Qa1 ({ Hang on a sec, what's this? I considered ( } 35. Qa1 { ) } 35...
Rxg6 36. Rxg6 Qxg6 37. Qxc3 { but for some reason I didn't like trading off
pieces. }) ({ I saw ( } 35. Qa1 { ) } 35... Ne4 36. Qa6+ Bb6 { but missed }
37. Qc8+ { at the end of that, as it happened. }) 35... Ne4 36. Qa6+ Bb6 (
36... Nd6 { was better. }) 37. Qc8+ ({ I was so scared of knight forks at
this point, eg... ( } 37. Qc8+ { ) } 37... Qd7 38. Nf8+ { Eeek! The
heartache of chess! }) 37... Kd6 38. Qxf5 Qe6 { Time to simplify this game
after a minor scare just there! } 39. Qxe6+ Kxe6 40. Nf8+ Ke7 { Can I trap
this knight too?! } 41. Ng6+ Kf7 42. f5 { No! This is what I missed,
freeing up f4 for the retreat! } 42... Nd6 43. Nf4 Nxf5 44. Nxd5 c3 ({ This
was premature, } 44... Ke6 { was better. c3 ended up giving me a big
headache! }) 45. Rc2 Ng3+ 46. Kg2 Ne4 47. Kf3 f5 48. Nxc3 Nxc3 49. Rxc3
Rxh2 { At this point I was really worrying about having all my pawns
swapped off and ending up with just a draw somehow. Fergal was clearly not
in the mood for capitulation! } 50. Kf4 Rf2+ ({ Obviously not } 50... Kg6 {
(or Kf6/e6) when } 51. Rc6+ { drives my king back, winning f5. }) 51. Kg3
Rf1 52. d5 { Mistake! } 52... Rd1 53. Kf4 Rxd5 54. e4 fxe4 55. Kxe4 Rd4+ {
I had seen this, I don't think Fergal had! I've got all of his pawns and
managed to keep one of my own! This should be easy, surely?! } 56. Ke5 Rxb4
57. Kd5 Rg4 58. Kc6 { Where is he going?! } 58... Rg8 59. Kb7 Ke6 60. Ka6 {
Aha! Very clever, he is blocking my advance with his monarch! } 60... Rg1
61. Ra3 Kd6 62. Rd3+ Kc6 63. Rd1 { Oh my God! A stalemate trick! I'd
probably have fallen for this if I was low on time, but I had enough here!

65... Ra5+ 66. Rxa5 Bxa5 67. Kxa7 { and it's just a draw! I need to figure
out how to smoke his King out of a6! }) 66. Ra2 Rc6 67. Rg2 Bd4+ {
Controlling g7 too! } 68. Kb5 a6+ { Fergal whispered "good move". I know
how to win this now... } 69. Ka5 Bc3+ 70. Ka4 Kb6 71. Kb3 Bd4 72. Rg3 Kb5 {
Bring the king in first! } 73. Rg5+ Bc5 (73... Rc5 $1 { was better. }) 74.

all over! Fergal was in pretty bad time trouble too... } 78... Rxa2 79.
Kxa2 Ka4 80. Kb1 Ka3 (80... Kb3 { was better, but I was running for the
corner and White resigns now anyway! Super resistance by Fergal! Time
remaining 1.30mins for Fergal and 4.19mins for me. This game put me on
Board 1 for the final round, I couldn't have been happier! }) 0-1

1. f4 { I had made it to the top Board against the top seed and I was
feeling confident, although exhausted after the 4 hour marathon against
Fergal! Dean was on 4/4 and I was on 3.5/4. I knew a draw was no good for
me in terms of the overall standings. } 1... d5 { I couldn't remember what
to play against the Bird Opening, this seemed reasonable... } 2. Nf3 Nf6 3.
e3 Bf5 { Was the e4 square going to play a key role in this game too? } 4.

just needed to keep making sensible moves. } 5... Nbd7 6. Be2 Be7 7. O-O

so this move annoyed me, but at least I wanted the exchange on my terms...

but alas } 9... hxg6 { was better! }) 10. Bf3 c6 (10... c5 { was more
active. }) 11. Bg4 { Annoying! It took me a while to realise that after the
exchange, Rf5 keeps my pawn on e6 alive! I didn't feel like I was
calculating very well at this point, I was so tired after the morning game.
} 11... Nxg4 12. Qxg4 Rf5 13. d4 { Leaving a hole on e4, just like in Game
4! This move also does no favours for his Bb2! } 13... Nf6 { I have to be
careful not to get my Rook on f5 trapped, but I had calculated the sequence
carefully here. } 14. Qe2 Ne4 15. Nd2 ({ I had expected } 15. Nc3) 15...

good for me. } 34. Re5 h5 35. Rfe2 R8c6 36. R5e3 Kf5 37. Rxc3 ({ I had been

might have something here. } 38. Re5+ Kf6 39. Kd2 Rc6 40. Re3 Kf5 41. h3 h4

can keep tabs on his a pawn. } 53. Re2 h3 54. a6 Rc6 ({ I needed to play }
