This is a blitz chess game I played as white with time control 5|0. The opening played was the Tarrasch Defense, Classical variation. White seeks some clarification with the central pawn structure by applying pressure to black’s c5 pawn. Black’s reply would play an important role in the course of the game. To change the structure with c4, thus obtaining a queenside majority, or something else?

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
