Count the Pieces, the Key to Success

A very short but interesting game of chess. It features the idea of chess mobility and development. When you have many pieces developed than your opponent, it may be wise to look for ways to end the game quickly.

Winning a game hinges on one idea: Counting the Pieces, that is, when your attacking pieces is greater than the defending pieces of your opponent, you have a greater chance of crushing your opponent's defenses, and win.

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 h6 Is it good to move the h-pawn early in the game?

4. d4 Of course! Opening up the position is a nice option!

4... Nf6 5. O-O The love for the initiative. Spending some few pawns for fast development!

5... exd4 6. e5 Ne4 7. Re1 Nc5 8. Nxd4 Ne7 Why must it go backwards?

9. Nc3 d6 10. exd6 cxd6 11. Ndb5 Bd7 The fatal error!

12. Nxd6# Dead! It is always cool to be the attacking person in this type of games, but in the receiving end? We should not have felt any better. It always happens to us anyway. Some blunders, then the game has ended. 1-0

That's OK, there is always another day!
