Sicilian B50

World Junior (11) 2002

1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 My opponent spent about a second or two on the first two moves and then seven minutes after c3. 3. c3 I chose this variation because I knew this variation would be somehow uncomfortable for a Sicilian Dragon player. 3... Nf6 4. Bd3 Nc6 5. Bc2 Bg4 6. d3 d5 7. h3 7. Nbd2 e6 8. h3 Bh5 9. Qe2 Be7 10. Nf1 c4 11. dxc4 dxe4 12. Bxe4 Nxe4 13. Qxe4 Bg6 14. Qe3 Bd3 15. N1d2 Bf6?! 16. Ne4 Bxc4 17. Qc5 Bd5 18. Nd6+ Kf8 19. Nxb7+ Qe7 20. Bf4! 1-0 after 52 moves Yudasin-Uritzsky 1996 7... Bh5 8. Nbd2 e6 9. Qe2 h6?! 9... Be7 is better 10. Nf1 Be7 11. g4 Bg6 12. Ng3

12... b5 13. Bf4?! 13. O-O is better 13... a6 14. O-O O-O 15. Nh4 Bh7 16. Ng2 The move that exposes the dubiety of 13.Bf4 One of the main plans in this variation is Nh4 and f4 at the right moment. 16... Nd7 17. Bd2 dxe4 18. dxe4 c4 19. Rad1 Qc7 20. f4 Rad8 21. h4 Nc5 22. Be3 Rxd1 23. Rxd1 Rd8 24. Rxd8+ Qxd8 25. g5 hxg5image 
26. hxg5 e5 27. f5 Nd4 Black decides to make the game interesting for the outcome does not favour him. 27... Nd3 loses after 28. Qg4 g6 (28... Qe8 29. Bxd3 cxd3 30. f6 Bf8 31. fxg7 Bxg7 32. Ne1 Qd8 33. Qd1 wins for white) 29. Bxd3 cxd3 (29... Qxd3 30. f6) (29... 29... gxf5 30. exf5 Qxd3 31. g6 fxg6 32. f6 Bxf6 33. Qe6+ Kg7 34. Qxc6) 30. f6 The Bishop is on h7 is inactive and Black cannot manage to survive even if he takes the pawn on f6. 28. cxd4 exd4 29. f6
