1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 d6 3. Nc3 Nbd7 4. e4 e5 5. Nf3 Be7 6. Be2 c6 7. O-O O-O {This is the standard position in, “The Old Indian”. There are several
kingside and queenside plans but I’m partial to the Callaham Attack! b2-b3
comes in later after Qc2, h3, Be3, Rb1, a2, Qd3, and Re1. They all concede
white a slight edge, (+=). The thing is, do you have a campaign. I have 34
things that have to dissapear from possibility before I don’t know what to
do!!! As a result, my opponents will get into time trouble because they must
plan and calculate using only their own time.} 8. b3 Qc7 9. Ba3  {This is not the right move. The diagonal just isn’t that important plus the pawn
structure is still fluid enough to handle the bishop and make it move again
for a good diagonal!} Qa5 {The computer said to move a rook or a pawn. Watch
your computer when it’s top recommendations are rook moves! Their whole line
comes suspect!} 10. Qc1 Re8 11. b4 Qc7  12. d5  {Releasing the tension?! To me it appears as though white has chosen the Queenside for our skirmish.} (12. Rd1 Nf8 13. h3 h6 14. b5 Ne6 ) 12… h6 13. Rd1 Nf8  {
This is where I choose the Kingside for my skirmish! This is a very complicated position to navigate without a campaign! He showed me that he’s been was having difficulties since move 9. He has to commit! The choices are c5=, g3=, Qd2=, Qb2=,Bf1=. Rb1=, h4+, b5=, dc+, Nh4=, Qc2=, and Qe3=.} 14. Qc2 a5 15. b5

White must move the rook or give black the initiaitive! All lines lead to Rg3.} 28. Nxf4  (28. Re3 Neg6 29. Nxf4 Nxf4 (29… gxf4 30. Rh3 Nh4 $1 31. Be2 f3 32. Bxf3 Nxf3+ 33. Rxf3 Rxg4+ 34. Kh1 Bxf5 35. exf5 Rfg8 ) 30. Bg2 Bf6 31. Rg3 $13) 28… gxf4 29. Nxe7 Rxg4+ 30. Kh1 Bxe7 31. Bh3 Rg5
