9th Afro-Asian CC Champ, Prel Section D: Nikhil Kamat
Pranab Bhowmick (Guwahati) has sent us the score of his second game against R.Lindberg in the India – Sweden match which ended in a draw game against the same opponent was published in the August Bulletin (p. 31). He writes, “With Black pieces, I was testing his ability to continue in a balanced position, in the meanwhile pushing ahead with my attack in the other game which I won.”
This game is about equal throughout and ends quietly. Perhaps, Bhowmick could have considered exploiting his queenside pawn majority to try and make something out of the position before the exchange of the pair of rooks.
Here is the game:
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.Nc3 Nc6 4.Bb5 Nd4 5.Bc4 Nxf3+ 6.Qxf3 d6 7.d3 Be7 8.Bg5 c6 9.O-O O-O 10.a4 Ne8 11.Be3 Be6 12.Bxe6 fxe6 13.Qg4 Rf6 14.b3 d5 15.exd5 exd5 16.Ne2 Nd6 17.d4 Nf7 18.Rad1 Qc7 19.c4
