I think I have played this to the end about forty times so far, but I have an appointment and then some business to do, including taking my box in for a check-up, and I know I have no margin for error. . . . . if any hope left at all. I'll be back I think in a few hours.
Oh well. . . . what choice do I have?
nah, I really want to look at it again. I probably can't avoid the forced trade.
Probably a lot of good players would just resign here. I'd like to play it out because this is how I learn. In my last-ditch effort to "avoid a Bishop Trade", I make the move
Bf3
So I edited the move because putting my Bishop on the black squares is illegal. lol. had it Be3.
So now I'm unplugging my computer to take it to the shop.

Trading bishops isn't one of my primary goals now. It's forcing you to commit to the queen-side so heavily that I can pick up both of your king-side pawns while not losing one of mine.
See you back after your computer is fixed.

So the box is in the shop.
In regard to what I've learned from this game. . . .and from my recent phone app chess games. . .
My style of play needs an upgrade to compete with folks in here.
I seriously thought OB would take his King down with his pawn in the b file. I was unable to force it that way, where I thought I could.
In regard to the h5/g5 choice I made, which hurts me now, I intended to use the Rook and Bishop to get his g and h pawns, but was unable to do so without letting his a pawn advance.

Would you mind using the clickable link, instead of just the image? I've been going back to my last move to click on the image, and then making both your move and mine. At some point, I'm going to screw that up.
I suppose if you kick my bishop now, it will be stuck on the king-side. I think it will still be useful there.

One of possible positions I saw after you played h5 had my rook on g5, with my pawns on h4 and g3 while yours were still on g6 and h5. The only way for you to attack my position would be to exchange rooks while your king was on f6 or h6, and my rook would be putting pressure on the king-side while supporting the queen-side. That never came about in the actual game.
Everyone in here thinks their game could use an upgrade.

The normal counter to white's strong center in the King's Indian is e5 but against Bg5, at least in this position, it's not even playable, so I'll try c5 instead. Now we have more of a Benoni structure.
PS. The image should now be clickable. Sorry it took so long for me to get up to speed. For a while there I was happy just to get any kind of board to show itself.

I considered Qb6 here attacking the weakened b2 square, a logical move because your black bishop is confined to the kingside, but it also seems a little loose and premature so I'll play Nc6, a more straightforward developing move.

I had no choice here.
I think this could still be fun.
I am in California again. This is getting to to be regular travel for me. Wife and kids with me, wife driving.
We're going to swim tonight, and have a good supper, and our motel room tonight is paid on a frequent customer benefit.
I did win big against my phone app chess opponent, so I'm going to take this loss pretty good.

Yep, it would have been an empty threat, more of a blitz move, a hoping your opponent makes a mistake type move. Here I’m exchanging a pawn and looking for a way to free up my position a little. White still has a space and development advantage, so I think black has to look for a way to equalize.
