4.Bd3 developing a minor piece and at the same time defending the e4 pawn!

English: 
4.. Nc6 Threatening to grab the d4 pawn and Maggeramov develops and his Kingside knight and defending the d4 pawn by playing 5.Nf3
There we see 5.. Nb4 6.0-0, Ne7( 7..Ng6)
7.Nc3
7.. N:d3 8.Q:d3
What if the Knight wouldn't grab the Bishop on d3 For example: (7..h6, 8. Bb1) and white has an advantage!
So there we see this 7..N:d3 8.Q:d3, Ng6
9.b3 trying to make a pawn structure

English: 
4.. Nc6 Threatening to grab the d4 pawn and Maggeramov develops and his Kingside knight and defending the d4 pawn by playing 5.Nf3

So there we see this 7..N:d3 8.Q:d3, Ng6
9.b3 trying to make a pawn structure

English: 
9.. Be7 10.d5 Maggeramov advances! 10..e5! 11.Ne2 ,  0-0 12.Ng3, d6 13.Nf5, Bc8
Ehlvest have seen that the Bishop on b7 couldn't do anything as the d5 covered the c6 square c4 covered b5 and b3 covered a4 So that's why the bishop retreats back on c8 and has a great diagonal! Hitting the Nf5
And we see 14.Bd2. There's not any possible reason to fianchetto the Queenside Bishop. This bishop is holding the e3 and the g5 square.

English: 
9.. Be7 10.d5 Maggeramov advances! 10..e5! 11.Ne2 ,  0-0 12.Ng3, d6 13.Nf5, Bc8
Ehlvest have seen that the Bishop on b7 couldn't do anything as the d5 covered the c6 square c4 covered b5 and b3 covered a4 So that's why the bishop retreats back on c8 and has a great diagonal! Hitting the Nf5
And we see 14.Bd2. There's not any possible reason to fianchetto the Queenside Bishop. This bishop is holding thye e3 and the g5 square

English: 
14.. Re8 15.Rae1 , Bd7 16.Kh1 , Bf8
Ehlvest plays a great defence Holding the Bishop on f8. Covering the e7
The Knight holds the h4 and the f4 And at the same time the Queen has a very good diagonal (d8-h4)
17.g3 ,Qc8 Now there's a very powerful counter-attack
For example (18.a4, B:f5 19.e:f5 ,e4

English: 
14.. Re8 15.Rae1 , Bd7 16.Kh1 , Bf8
Ehlvest plays a great defence Holding the Bishop on f8. Covering the e7
The Knight holds the h4 and the f4 And at the same time the Queen has a vrey good diagonal (d8-h4)
17.g3 ,Qc8 Now there's a very powerful counter-attack
For example (18.a4, B:f5 19.e:f5 ,e4

English: 
20.R:e4 , Q:e5) The position is equal with a slight advantage for white
So we see this 18.Ne3
18..h6, 19.Ng1, Be7, 20.f4, e:f4, 21.g:f4
and 21.. Bh4, 22.Re2, Bf6 ,23. Ng2(If 23.f5 then Ne5
and gets a great square hitting
the Queen on d3 hitting the pawn on c4
controlling the f3 controlling the g4
yeah it's a very unpleasant position for white!!

English: 
20.R:e4 , Q:e5) The position is equal with a slight advantage for white

18..h6, 19.Ng1, Be7, 20.f4, e:f4, 21;g:f4
and 21.. Bh4, 22.Re2, Bf6 ,23. Ng2(If 23.f5 then Ne5
and gets a great square hitting
the Queen on d3 hitting the pawn on c4
controlling the f3 controlling the g4
yeah it's a very unpleasant position for white!!

English: 
So there we see 23. Ng2 ,b5! A smart pawn sacrifice ensuring  that the light squared bishop will be able to get into the game!
24. c5 What if 24.c:b5 We have (A: Qb7 and B: a6)
(B section) 25.b:a6, Q:a6, 26 Q:a6, R:a6
27.a4, Rb8 (Black covers the exchange)
If white tried to defend the b3 (28: Rb1, Rxa4±)
ofcourse you cannot recapture on a4
because there is the R:b1

English:

24. c5 What if 24.c:b5 We have (A: Qb7 and B: a6)

If white tried to defend the b3 (28: Rb1, Rxa4±)
ofcourse you cannot recapture on a4
because there is the R:b1

English: 
and this is very unpleasant for white!!
But we can see also the variation of 24..Qb7 (A section)
We have 25.a4, a6, b:a6 R:a6
With the idea of c6 and imagine this bishop on d7 having the long diagonal!!
That's why Maggeramov didn't captured on b5 and played 24.c5
24..d:c5 , 25.e5, Bf5 (Threatening to hit the Queen!) 26.Q:b5, c6!
and 27.d:c6 (What if 27.Q:c6)
27.Q:c6, Q:c6, 28.d:c6, Bd3

English:

and 27.d:c6 (What if 27.Q:c6)
27.Q:c6, Q:c6, 28.d:c6, Bd3

English: 
And picks up the exchange!
27.d:c6, Be7 (to defend the c5 pawn!)
28.Re3, Rb8 (Kicking the queen out of the game!)
29.Qa4, Rb6, 30.c7,Ra6
Hitting the queen again!
31. Ba5
I believe to my mind there's better to play (31.Qb5, R:a2, Re2)

31. Ba5
I believe to my mind there's better to play (31.Qb5, R:a2, Re2)

English: 
Maggeramov plays 31.Ba5, Bd7 (Hitting the queen again!) 32.Qa3, Bc6. 33.Nf3
33..Qg4. 34.e6 Maggeramov is trying to give some pawns to continue playing the game!
34..f:e6. 35.b4, c:b4 (Giving space to the queen!)
36.Qc1(Threatening to regrab the Bishop on c6) 36..Bb7 and Maggeramov resigned!
yeah
the bishop on a5 is about to drop among
other things so white resigned for me
there was a point poetic justice in
this game: white was punished for overextending
his center and the black light squared
bishop played and significant part
in its downfall!!
