My Favorite Under 5 Minute Timed Game

By Josh

This is easily my favorite game that I have done on Chess.com. The fact that we managed to get this done in a 3 minute timer is still blowing my mind today! Here is the game. (I played mathkid1)

mathkid1 (1292) vs. Baba_Gana (1124)

1. e4, e5 2. Nf3, Nc6 3. Nc3, Nf6 4. Bc4, Be7 5. d3 0-0 6. 0-0, Re8 7. d4, Na5 8. dxe5, Nxc4 9. exf6, Bxf6 10. Bf4, d6
10... Nxb2 would have been much better
11. b3 (I remember saying "DIE KNIGHT!" after this, but now I realize 11... Bxc3.) 11... Nb6 12. Qd2, Bg4 13. Rae1, Bxf3 14. gxf3, Be5 15. Bxe5, Rxe5 16. Nd5, Nxd5 17. exd5, Qg5+ 18. Kh1, Rxd5 19. Qxg5, Rxg5 20. Re2, h6
Saving the isolated King
21. Rfe1, Kh7 22. Re8, Rxe8 23. Rxe8, Rd5 24. Re7, Rd1+ 25. Kg2, Rc1 26. Rxc7, Re1 27. Rxb7, Re2 28. Rxa7, Rxc2 29. Rxf7, Rxa2 30. Rd7, Rb2
Starting here we are in time-trouble
31. Rxd6, Rxb3 32. Rd2, Rb7 33. Kg3, Rf7 34. f4, g6 35. Kg4, h5+ 36. Kg5, Rg4 37. Kh4, Rxf4+ 38. Kg3, h4+ 39. Kg2, Rg4+ 40. Kh3, Rf4
I am getting in some trouble here
41. Kg2, g5 42. Rd7+, Kg6 43. f3, Kf5 44. h3, Rf8 45. Rh7+, Kg6 46. Re7, Kf6 47. Ra7, Rf7 48. Ra6+ Kf5 49 Ra5+, Kf4 50. Ra4+, Kf5
Hoping to win on time here
51. Ra2, Kg6 52. Ra3 Kf5 53. Rb3, Ke6 54. Rb4, Rf5 55. Re4+, Kf6 56. Rc4, Re5 57. Rc6+, Re6 58. Rxe6+, Kxe6 59. Kf2, Kd5 60. Ke3, Kc4
This move just decided the whole game
61. f4, Kc3 62. fxg5, Kc2 63. Kf4, Kb2 64. Kg4, Kc2 65. Kxh4 BLACK RUNS OUT OF TIME
I had it in the bag here
That's it, everybody! My favorite super-fast game. I hope you enjoyed it!
