Lila Futo Open 2012-11

Here’s a game from earlier this month played in a small 6-Round Open. The game was played by Zoltan Polyanszky-Tamasi, One of my new chess friends.

Zoltan Polyanszky-Tamasi is a 37-year-old analyst working at the National Development Agency – a government institution responsible for the management of the Hungarian share of EU Funds. He played his first chess tournaments in Italy, about a year ago. His playing style changes with the colours, playing rather positional games with white, and unorthodox tactical stuff with black.

White has allowed the queenside structure to be compromised and lost castling rights. Black is definitely in control.

Critical Position 1
How should black press the advantage?
Is there a tactic?
Press the middlegame?
Offer an ending?
