The dangers of neglecting development
Sort:
A fine example of the importance of basic opening strategy!
As the one who sufferede this embarising defeat, I just have some comments. First of all I will say, that I usualy never play open games (1. e4 e5), but after playing some games with "Regnskog" I thought I would try something new.
3... h6 is to prevent Ng5 (after d3 or d4) - a situation I often have problems with in my usual opening strategy, that often forces me to play Nh6 - not a very good spot for the knight I think.
It is a defensive move and not very developing - and if I had had the idea of Regnskog never making early easy attacks (by moving af piece two times in the opening) I would not have feared the move. So I think a5 was not so unlogical.
4... Na5 was a very bad move, I realised. I feared the move 5. Qb3, and with this move I would prevent that move and try to handle the bishop... maybe it is to early to be affraid about this kind of attacks? Anyway, I had not thought of the sacrifice of the bishop as a strong move.
7... Bd6 - a bad move yes, but what else to do? I realy think I was doomed already here. My strategy was to get the king behind the kingside pawns. But I don't think there was any good moves here.
Well - this is the kind of games that you learn something from 
Chess principles violated:
- Only move each piece once in the opening
- Develop all your pieces
or something like that :)
