The Benko Gambit. I started to play the Benko Gambit when I was very litte. It
is one of my favorite weapons because it offers pretty umbalanced positions
where black in exchange of the pawn develops very fast and seeks for dynamic
counterplay on the queenside. In contrast with other openings the theory of the Benko Gambit is not that developed.}

13.Nbd2 Bf5 14.dxc5 Bxc5 15.Nd4 Bxd4 {?} {
 I should have just played Bg6 and maintained the bishop pair. Taking the
knight left white a wide-open c file to attack my backwards pawn, as well as a
strong outpost on e5 and an isolated d pawn which couldn't be assailed.}

31.g4 f6 32.Nf3 Ng5 33.Bxg5 fxg5 {?} {
 hxg5 was better, since the white outpost on e5 is maintained. I didn't like
the idea of him pushing his h pawn forward to attack my kingside.}
34.Qg3 Be4 {?} { Re4 was a chance to prevent Ne5 by attacking the d pawn, but I was running into time-pressure.}
35.Ne5 Rf6 36.Qe3 Re6 37.f3 Bh7 38.Qc3 Qb8 { I saw Qb8 as the only real defense for my near-doomed c pawn. If Nxc6?? I have a mate in 4 after Qg3+.}
39.Kg2 Kg8 40.Qd2 {?} {
 White would have had a sizeable advantage after Qa5! He still couldn't take
the pawn since I was still threatening Re2+ Kf1 Qh2!} Qb5 41.Rc5
Qb6 42.Qa5 Bb1 43.Qa4 {?} {
 [diagram] White would have done better simply to play a3. After reaching time
control with a minute left on my clock, I spent 20 minutes on this next move,
noting the weakness of white's overloaded d pawn. Fortunately I arrived at the correct move...}
Bxa2 {!} { The other move I was pondering was Rxe5. I calculated the line 43... Rxa5
Rxc6, Re2+ Kf1, Bd3 Rxb6, Rxa2+ Ke1, Rxa4 Rb8+, Kf2 bxa4, leaving me with a
bishop vs rook endgame. At first glance it seemed I could hold a draw with this
line, but after anchoring my bishop on c4, white could sack the exchange and
capture my c pawn, leaving him with a won endgame. So I instead took on a2,
deflecting white's queen away from c6 preventing Rxc6.} 44.Qxa2
