This is an instructive game between Leela Chess Zero (3692) and Integral (3576) from the Premier Division of the Top Chess Engine Championship Season 28, round 56. The opening is a Sicilian Defense, Scheveningen Variation, Keres Attack, beginning from the position after 7…Nfd7. By advancing pawns to e5 and g5, Leela effectively prevents Integral from castling kingside. The game develops with opposite side castling, where Leela’s queenside pawn play highlights the central theme of opening files toward the enemy king.

I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
