00:00And after d4, knight a5, so I took on e5, knight takes e4, knight takes e4, d5, I took on d5, queen takes d5, and then my knight on e3, it's a good position for the knight.
00:13And I had an interesting game, had an initiative, but missed wind was a draw, and later on I just studied it a little bit and thought, oh, maybe white had another idea.
00:27But I put it just on the shelf, so it was not my top priority.
00:35And I was pretty sure that Vichy would play bishop e7, because that's what happens if you face such a new line, sharp line, so you don't go for lines like bishop a5 or bishop c5, because they're...
00:50Too much theory.
00:51Too much theory, bishop e7, and then you play after d4, knight a5, you exchange this bishop, and it's a position that is fairly solid, so you don't want to be surprised.
01:04But here I had my surprise, so that's why I was hoping for Vichy to follow this line, because after knight a5, I played bishop e2.
01:13It's something that looks odd, because typically white sacrifices pawn to build a center.
01:22So that's why you don't want to remove your bishop, or you move bishop to d3, but I removed my bishop to e2, just having something else in mind.
01:29It's not about creating a center.
01:31It's more about playing for development.
01:36Black pieces are slightly discoordinated, and after Vichy took on d4, I took with a queen on d4.
01:43Creating a threat, quite an elementary threat.
01:47But it's not that easy to defend this pawn without giving quite some extra opportunities.
01:53By the way, later on, many switched to d6, sacrificing the pawn back, queen a4, c6.
