Comment by player 2 : Graham Cridland :
An interesting game, although from my subjective perspective the end came quickly; my silicon friend found Black's endgame edge much more significant that I did just looking at the positions.
White gets into trouble with the wasted tempi 6. Be2 followed by 12.Bf1. Generally, of course, Bf1-e2 is not necessary in the Be3, f3, Qd2 "English Attack" structure. 13. Qf2 is met by the thematic 13...Rxc3, played entirely without analysis on the theory that it just -could not - be bad given White's lost tempi and the lack of piece exchanges.
Then, of course, 18...Bc4? throws away most of Black's advantage. This move is a mistake because the bishop obstructs Black's play. There is no need to occupy the c4 square; simply rolling forward with the Queenside pawns is sufficient for advantage.
After the pawn is anchored on b2 by it's a3-partner, the ending is difficult to defend; the extra exchange is more than compensated for by the extra pawns because Black can force their advance while the White king is tied to b1.

Dans le domaine de la peinture, de la gravure et de la sculpture, dès la première décennie de notre siècle, les artistes abandonnent la représentation de la partie d'échecs pour se concentrer sur les pièces, sur les échiquiers et sur toutes les variations auxquelles les unes et les autres peuvent donner lieu. On passe en quelque sorte d'un thème social à un thème musical (au sens de la musica médiévale, c'est-à-dire d'une notion qui inclue le rythme, l'harmonie, la construction et la déconstruction, etc.). Graphiquement et picturalement, l'échiquier apparaît comme une structure ouverte, dynamique, d'une richesse infinie, autorisant toutes les combinatoires et débouchant sur des mouvements et des rythmes de nature exponentielle. (Michel Pastoureau)
Humor is by far the most significant activity of the human brain. (Edward De Bono)
