The long version Die lange Fassung

Two games on day one. The first put me on board one, Black against Gernot Blum, who is rated 2064, the highest number in the field. Eighteen moves in, it was still a real game and I was fine. Then I thought for about a minute, played 19...Qf7 and handed him my queen the second I let go of her.

Resigning was the sensible move. I did not resign. I took a rook for her, then a bishop, then another rook, and spent the next twenty moves trying to strangle his king on the light squares. The equaliser was genuinely there: I calculated 24...Bxd1, which the engine calls a playable +0.6, and played 24...Rxd3 instead because I wanted the bishop for tricks. A move later I just missed the fork and 25...h5 cost me the second rook. After that the only idea I had left was walking my own king across to the queenside, because he could barely move a piece and my king was incredibly safe over there. 31.h4 ended that. Blum needed 41 moves to catch me and I enjoyed every one of them.

Game two, White against Simon Viehhauser (1722). I had a bind, his queenside was frozen, and in general I felt like I was better at all times in that game. The engine says no: I was losing for fifteen straight moves. On move 20 I gave up a bishop for two connected passed pawns because I was certain nobody could stop them, and the engine had the position dead level before that and about two and a half pawns worse after it.

Then I marched one of the pawns to c7, stood up, walked to the next board and borrowed their spare queen for psychological warfare. He cracked on move 34. It worked, and it should not have.

37.Qxa6 loses, by the way. 37...Bd3! wins for Black, and he resigned one move before the move that would have beaten me. One point out of two, and I would play both of these again tomorrow.

Move of the day2 Aug 2026

I BORROWEDA QUEEN OFFTHE NEXT BOARD.

Move 27, pawn to c7. One square off a second queen and I already had one on the board, so I got up and borrowed a spare off the next board. He had not even replied yet.

Engine says Black is +3 here. Nobody told me. He resigned seven moves later.

Round 2Move 27c7

Schwarzacher Open 2026Turniertagebuch

Zug des Tages2. Aug. 2026

DAME AUSGEBORGT.VOM BRETTNEBEN MIR.

Zug 27, Bauer nach c7. Ein Feld vor der zweiten Dame und eine hatte ich schon am Brett, also bin ich aufgestanden und hab mir vom Nachbarbrett eine ausgeborgt. Geantwortet hatte er da noch gar nicht.

Laut Engine steht Schwarz hier +3. Hat mir keiner gesagt. Sieben Züge später hat er aufgegeben.

Runde 2Zug 27c7

One square from a second queen Ein Feld vor der zweiten Dame

Round two, move 27. The pawn on c6 steps to c7, one more square and it turns into a queen, and I already had a queen on the board. So I stood up, walked to the neighbouring board and borrowed their spare one for psychological warfare, before he had even replied. It sat next to the pawn for the rest of the game, where he had to look at it.

The engine says Black was winning here by about three pawns and that the rook belonged on c5 instead. Nobody told me either of those things. I would have done it anyway. He cracked seven moves later.

Board one, Black, against the highest rating in the field. Gernot Blum, 2064. Eighteen moves in, it was still a real game and I was fine. Then I thought for about a minute, played 19...Qf7 and hung my queen the second I let go of her. The engine had it level before that move and three pawns down after it. That is where you resign. I didn't. I tried to bail out by taking as many pieces as I could for her and making the squares around his king weak, so at least I had something dynamic to play for: a rook, then a bishop, then another rook. The equaliser was genuinely there. I had calculated 24...Bxd1, which the engine calls a playable +0.6, and I played 24...Rxd3 instead because I wanted the light-squared bishop for tricks and his king boxed in on the light squares. A move later I just missed the fork. 26.Qg8+ hits my king and the rook on a2 at the same time and there goes the second rook. 25...Bd5 was probably the move. After that the only idea I had left was walking my own king across to the queenside to help mate him, because he could barely move a piece and my king was incredibly safe over there. I analysed it at the board and I don't remember the moves any more. 31.h4 shut that down and that was the beginning of the end. I'm not even mad that I lost. I liked the game and I had a lot of fun dynamically balancing out the queen blunder and the missed equalisation I calculated but didn't play. Blum needed 41 moves to catch my king. Brett eins, Schwarz, gegen die höchste Elo im Feld. Gernot Blum, 2064. Achtzehn Züge lang war das eine echte Partie und ich bin gut gestanden. Dann hab ich rund eine Minute nachgedacht, 19...Df7 gespielt und die Dame eingestellt, kaum dass ich sie losgelassen hab. Laut Engine war es davor ausgeglichen und danach drei Bauern hinten. Da gibt man auf. Hab ich nicht. Ich hab versucht, mich rauszuwinden, indem ich für sie so viele Figuren wie möglich hole und die Felder rund um seinen König schwäche, damit ich wenigstens irgendwas Dynamisches habe: einen Turm, dann einen Läufer, dann noch einen Turm. Der Ausgleich war wirklich da. 24...Lxd1 hatte ich gerechnet, die Engine gibt dafür spielbare +0,6, und gespielt hab ich trotzdem 24...Txd3, weil ich den weißfeldrigen Läufer für Tricks wollte und seinen König auf den weißen Feldern eingesperrt. Einen Zug später hab ich die Gabel einfach übersehen. 26.Dg8+ trifft meinen König und den Turm auf a2 gleichzeitig, und der zweite Turm ist weg. 25...Ld5 wäre wahrscheinlich besser gewesen. Danach war die einzige Idee, die mir geblieben ist, mit dem eigenen König an den Damenflügel zu marschieren und ihn dort matt zu setzen, weil er eh keine Figur bewegen konnte und mein König drüben unglaublich sicher gestanden ist. Am Brett hab ich das durchgerechnet, an die Züge erinnere ich mich nicht mehr. 31.h4 hat das abgestellt, und das war der Anfang vom Ende. Sauer bin ich deswegen überhaupt nicht. Die Partie hat mir gefallen: das dynamische Ausbalancieren vom Damenpatzer und der Ausgleich, den ich gerechnet und dann nicht gespielt hab, das hat alles richtig Spaß gemacht. Blum hat 41 Züge gebraucht, um meinen König zu fangen.

Here I blundered. I made the move in about a minute and realised the mistake the moment I made it. 20.Ng5 attacks the queen while his queen on b5 is hitting my bishop on d5 at the same time, so there is no version of this where I keep the material.

Here I thought Nxe5 would be better for him. My own plan was to bail out by taking as many pieces as possible for the queen and making the squares around his king weak, so I had something to compensate with dynamically. The engine agrees with me about 20.Nxe5: about three quarters of a pawn better, because he pockets the pawn and still wins the queen.

I calculated this and 24...Bxd1. Objectively Bxd1 is the better one, bishop and rook for the queen with a healthy pawn structure, but I wanted the light-squared bishop for tricks and I wanted his king boxed in on the light squares, so I took the pawn instead.

I don't know why he let me play e4 and didn't play it himself. If he had, I would probably be dead right there. The engine's first choice one move earlier is exactly 29.e4+.
30.
Instead of c5 I was thinking about a plan of bringing my king over to the other side of the board and mating him there, because he really can't move anything and I have all the time in the world with my king that safe over there. I analysed it and I don't quite remember the moves. The engine is unsentimental about the idea: it doesn't march the king at all, it just throws the h-pawn forward, and 30...Kg5 comes out no better and no worse than what I played. Everything here is around five pawns for White.

With h4 he shut down the king walk idea, and this is the beginning of the end.

My idea now was to just push the pawns and overrun him with them.

34.Qa5 neutralises the pawns completely and from here I have nothing left.

He offered the trade with 35.Bc3 and I declined it, which doesn't matter at all, because the mate arrives a few moves later anyway.

vs gegen Viehhauser, Simon (1722)

1 – 0 · Win Sieg

Chess scores are always written White first. Elias had White here. Schachergebnisse stehen immer aus Sicht von Weiß. Elias hatte hier Weiß.

White, round two, straight after the round-one disaster. In general I felt like I was better at all times in this game. The engine says no. A Maroczy bind, my bishop parked on b6, his queenside frozen. That part was true, and it stayed true for about ten moves. Then on move 16 I won the exchange in the wrong order and gave two and a half pawns straight back without noticing anything at the board, and on move 20 I gave the b6 bishop away because I was certain nobody could stop my connected passed pawns. They could. From there the engine has me losing for fifteen straight moves. I spent those fifteen moves pushing the c-pawn up to c7, and then I got up and grabbed a second queen off the next board for psychological warfare, so it stood next to the pawn where he had to look at it. He cracked on move 34, and that pawn was stoppable the whole time. Then I was winning for exactly three moves. 37.Qxa6 threw it away one final time, and he shook hands one move before 37...Bd3 beats me. My judgement was wrong for most of this game and I still walked away with the full point. Positions like this are very hard to defend. Weiß, Runde zwei, direkt nach dem Desaster in Runde eins. Im Großen und Ganzen hatte ich das Gefühl, in dieser Partie durchgehend besser zu stehen. Die Engine sagt nein. Maróczy-Aufbau, mein Läufer auf b6, sein Damenflügel eingefroren. So weit hat es gestimmt, und es hat ungefähr zehn Züge lang gestimmt. Dann hab ich im 16. Zug die Qualität in der falschen Reihenfolge gewonnen und zweieinhalb Bauern sofort wieder hergegeben, ohne am Brett irgendwas zu merken, und im 20. Zug hab ich den Läufer auf b6 hergegeben, weil ich sicher war, meine verbundenen Freibauern stoppt keiner. Konnte er aber. Ab da stehe ich laut Engine fünfzehn Züge lang auf Verlust. Diese fünfzehn Züge hab ich damit verbracht, den c-Bauern bis c7 zu schieben, und dann bin ich aufgestanden und hab mir vom Nachbarbrett eine zweite Dame geholt, für die psychologische Kriegsführung, damit sie neben dem Bauern steht und er sie anschauen muss. Im 34. Zug ist er eingebrochen, dabei hätte er den Bauern die ganze Zeit stoppen können. Dann bin ich genau drei Züge lang auf Gewinn gestanden. 37.Dxa6 hat alles noch einmal weggeworfen, und er hat mir einen Zug vor 37...Ld3 die Hand gegeben. Meine Einschätzung war fast die ganze Partie falsch und ich bin trotzdem mit dem ganzen Punkt rausgegangen. Solche Stellungen sind sehr schwer zu verteidigen.

My line11…12.
+0.1

The check we looked at first in the post-mortem. It costs him nothing and White has to undo the knight on d5 straight away.

12.
My line12…13.
+0.5

The clean-up version: trade the outpost off and put the knight on e5. Black gives me the d5-pawn as a target but takes all the tricks out of the position.

My line12…13.
+0.6

Our main line at the board: the same check one move later, and again the knights have to retreat instead of jumping into c7.

13.
This is the part where my feeling and the engine still agree. The bishop on b6 freezes his queenside, the knight sits on d5, and around here White is a clear pawn and a half better. Everything I believed about this game was formed in these ten moves and all of it was true, the problem is that I kept believing it for another twenty.
My line13…
+1.6

The other way to meet 13.Bb6. Take on d5 immediately instead of tucking the queen away on c8.

14.
15.
16.
The first place it actually went wrong, and I never noticed it at the board. I win the exchange here and I am at +0.0 afterwards. The move is 16.Qxd4! first: recapture, then take the rook next move, because the rook on e8 isn't going anywhere. The way I played it he gets ...Nxf3+ in between, rips the bishop off my kingside and recaptures on e8 with a free tempo. Two and a half pawns, gone into a move I thought was winning material.
Engine · Best16.17.18.19.
+2.2
17.
My line17…
+0.5

The knight recapture was our first candidate in the post-mortem. Practically it is the same story. He keeps the bishop pair, I keep the exchange.

18.
My line18.
+1.7

Instead of castling I looked at pushing straight away. 18.c5 is fine. But we had the wrong answer for him: 18...d5? just drops a pawn to 19.exd5 and White is better by two. He has to hit the c5-pawn or play ...Qe6 first.

19.
20.
I sacrificed the bishop because I thought my pawns would be unstoppable. The engine says no, and not politely: dead level at 0.00 before this, about -2.6 after it. What it wants instead is 20.e5!, pushing past rather than capturing. I still lose the bishop on b6, but the pawn takes the knight on f6 with tempo and the whole thing holds together. The difference between the two moves is two and a half pawns. That is exactly the kind of decision I take on feel.
My line20.21.22.
+0.4

The move we found afterwards, and the engine's number one: push past instead of capturing. I still give up the bishop on b6, but the e-pawn takes the knight on f6 with tempo and everything holds together.

Engine · Best20.21.22.23.
-0.0
21.
My line21…22.23.24.
-4.0

His queen belongs on c7, not d8. From behind the pawns nothing ever promotes. 22.d6!? is the try, and after ...exd6 cxd6 the pawns are split and the check on b6 comes with tempo.

22.
23.
24.
Here is the concrete reason the pawns were never unstoppable, and it is worth learning: pieces cannot blockade them. 24...Bd7? or 24...Nd7? both lose on the spot to cxd7, because the pawn simply eats the blockader. What does work is exactly what he played. The rook goes behind the pawn on c8, the queen joins from c7, and then the pawn is just a weakness two ranks from home. A passed pawn on the sixth is only unstoppable if the defender has to stop it with a piece that can be taken.
Engine · Interesting24…25.26.27.
+4.6

The trap that made the pawns feel unstoppable. Blockading with a piece on d7 simply loses to cxd7, because the pawn eats the blockader. That is why the rook has to go behind it on c8 instead.

25.
26.
His one real slip of the whole storm. 26...Qa5 leaves the c-file, and the engine's number one is the move we both wanted for him afterwards: 26...Qc7, queen behind the pawn, door shut, come back in an hour. After ...Qa5 the evaluation jumps from about -2.5 to -1.8. At the board I felt nothing at all, because to me the position looked the same as it had for ten moves.
My line26…
-2.5

The move we both wanted for him afterwards: queen behind the pawn, and the c-file is shut forever.

My line26…
-2.0

The other one we looked at: centralise and offer the trade. Every queen swap is terrible news for my pawns.

27.
The move the whole game was built around, and the engine calls it an inaccuracy. What I missed is 27.Rc5!, hitting his queen and the e5-pawn at the same time: after 27...Qc7 28.Rcxe5 I win the pawn back, my pieces are suddenly the active ones, and the line ends around -1.5 instead of -3.1. That is the lesson of this game in one move. The pawn on c7 looks like the dream and is really just a piece I have to babysit. The rook doing work on c5 was worth one and a half pawns more.
Engine · Best27.28.29.30.
-1.2

Engine · Interesting30…31.32.33.
-4.8

The human way to kill the pawn: put the queen on e7, where it watches c7 along the seventh rank, then bring the bishop to f4 on the same errand. Two pieces covering one square from a distance, and c8 never happens.

31.
Both sides keep proving the same point here without knowing it. The engine's move is 31...Bf4. From f4 the bishop looks straight down the diagonal at c7, and one move earlier 30...Qe7 does the same job along the seventh rank. Cover the promotion square from a distance and my pawn is dead wood. He put the bishop back on g7 instead, where it stares at a pawn on b2 that isn't there any more, and handed back the better part of a pawn.
Engine · Interesting31…32.33.34.35.
-4.1

Same idea, one move later, and easier to find than anything the engine plays elsewhere. The bishop is a spectator on g7 and a sniper on f4, where it stares straight down the diagonal at c7. Trade queens and the pawn is just lost.

32.
33.
My line33…34.
-3.3

Taking the pawn immediately was our main line in the post-mortem, and 34.Bc4 is indeed the wrong way for me: ...Qb4! and I'm losing. But see the other line. 34.Rxc7! saves the game, so 33...Ba4 (what he actually played) was the accurate move order.

My line33…34.35.
-0.1

The engine's correction to our post-mortem: 34.Rxc7! and after ...Qxc7 35.Rxd5 the position is dead level. So the immediate 33...Rxc7 throws the whole win away. His 33...Ba4 first was right, and we had it backwards at the board.

34.
And there it is, the move that actually decided the game. He grabs my rook on c2 and forgets that the c-pawn is one square from a queen with his rook still sitting on c8. 34...Rxc7 first and I can resign: he gives the exchange back, the pawn dies, and he is a clean piece up. Instead the evaluation swings from -3.1 to +2.5 in one move. Twelve moves of me shoving a pawn he could have stopped finally produced the mistake he would never have made in a calm position.
My line34…35.36.
-6.9

This is what he had to play, and we both saw it two seconds after he had let go of the bishop. He gives the exchange back, kills the c-pawn, and stays a clean piece up.

Engine · Best34…35.36.37.38.
-3.2
35.
Here I got up to grab a second queen off the neighbouring board for psychological warfare, and put it down next to the c-pawn where he had to look at it. In fairness it was also the only honest part of my play in this phase, because the pawn really was about to promote. It just took his blunder to get there.
Engine · Interesting35…36.37.
M1

Why 35...Bf8 was forced: blocking with the queen runs into the promotion with check and mate next move. This is the one moment in the game where the second queen would really have appeared on the board.

36.
37.
I completely blundered the game away, and he resigned. I was at +4.0 and grabbed a pawn. 37...Bd3!! wins on the spot, because my bishop on e2 is overloaded and after 38.Bxd3 exd3 the new queen on c8 can't get back to stop the d-pawn. The move that wins is 37.Qd8!, stepping in front of my own pawn so c8 is unstoppable, comfortably over +4. And the version I would rather find under time pressure is 37.Qxf8+ Kxf8 38.c8=Q+ Ke7 39.Qxc2: everything forced, a piece up, nothing left to calculate. He shook hands one move before the refutation. I'll take the point. My play over the last ten moves did not deserve it.
My line37.38.
+3.9

The move that wins: the queen steps in front of the pawn and c8 is unstoppable. Let him have a2. 38.h4 makes luft and there is no perpetual.

My line37.38.39.
+2.1

The version I would want to find at the board: force everything off, promote with check and pick up the bishop on c2. Less spectacular than 37.Qd8, and it wins without me having to calculate anything.

My line37.38.39.
-5.5

What he resigned into. 37...Bd3!! is the whole point: my bishop is overloaded, and after 38.Bxd3 exd3 my new queen on c8 cannot stop the d-pawn. Black wins.
