Amateur Games: Long Term Plus vs Short Term Time

Long Term Plus vs Short Term Time

Opening: D37: Queen's Gambit

Player(s):

A common double blunder low-lights the opening but then White gets a structural advantage identical to Botvinnik-Capablanca AVRO 1938. But White flounders and creates weaknesses allowing Black to attack. Unfortunately Black plays a series of second and third best moves and squanders his chance. White's long-term advantages then show in a big way and he starts a combination easy and decisive. Instructive game.
