One great party with centipawn loss 9 :D

After training a lot in training and openings, I achieved one awesome game I'm really proud to show you. I'm impressed because I was not expecting only 1 inacuracy (whereas I did few useless stuff and the game was long) and I was expecting more centipawns loss.

The truth is than I made some stupid/neutral moves but at least they were stable. For example: 10 Bc2 Re8 11 Qd3 (threating mate or problems in the future which is totally stupid because after g6 I do nothing) I really thought this movements would be considered at least as innacuracies but they didnt!!
Also, many other times I didn't had many margin of error (because I could take 1 pawn, or simply threat one piece)

However, during all the game it was even but finally I could make some progress and I made one great check-mate (if he would not surrender).

I hope you enjoy and I would appreciate your commentaries if I could make something better.

Thanks lichess for your features which are making me a better player.

(My secret: Training puzles and openings from lichess had showed me than I need 30-60 seconds to can find great movements. I recommend you everyone to make many training situations, and don't play so fast in classical when you have time. Spend 5-30 seconds per movement to ensure it's the best one!)

The Stockfish evaluation is flawed for this game imho.

Black was slightly better for some time in the opening and middlegame, not white.

Chess engines are good for calculations, and therefore nice to check for missed tactics.

However, regarding pawn structures and making long term plans in closed and semi closed chess positions, the chess engines are still lacking.

You won because of a few mistakes of your opponent, but you did finish it quite nicely.

Congrats !
I disagree with achja, White had the better position throughout in this game. Bishops and two half-open files in the center of the board are well worth a doubled pawn. And I liked Qd3; g6 gives black a lot of weaknesses on the dark squares around his king, made even more pronounced due to the fact black lacks a dark-squared bishop. Just a good game all round for white.
Well, there was a DSB; I was looking too far into the game. But my point stands.
g7g6 was not needed. Black could have played Nf8.
