Ng1f3 Bc8d7 6. Bf1e2 Qd8b6 {a variation of the french advance I don't play anymore. Typically I find that the queen doesn't have enough effect here and has to be retreated so I've taken up Nge7 instead intending Ng6 and f6} 7. O-O cxd4 8. cxd4 Ng8e7 9. b3 Ne7f5 10. Bc1e3 h5 {to prevent g4 booting my knight note that taking the e3 bishop is a bad idea due to whites attack against f7 (i.e. Ng5)} 11. Nb1c3 Bf8a3 {played to prevent Rc1, but I think white can play Nb5 at any point to boot the offending piece} 12. Ra1b1 {a wasted move, probably to prevent the fork Bb2, but this is met by Na4 winning the bishop) Ba3b4 13. Nc3a4 Qb6d8 14. Be3g5 Bb4e7 15. Bg5xe7 Qd8xe7 {blacks dark squares now lack a defender.Nc5 or if possible Nd6 are very dangerous ideas now.} 16. Rb1c1 Ra8c8 17. Na4c5 b6 18. Nc5xd7 Qe7xd7 19. Be2b5 Qd7b7 20. Rf1e1 {why not Qc2, Kd7, Rd1 inteding d1-d3-c3 while freeing the knight from it's defensive duties. Note that black still has Nf-e7 available but then he will be fully on the defensive with a very weak kingside (h5 has backfired)} a6 21. Bb5xc6 Rc8xc6 22. Rc1xc6 {Now black's problem is how to develop his rook without the kingside being overrun. h5, Ke7 seems the movst natural but black still doesn't have a good counter then to Qd2! with threats of both Rc1 and Qg5+ I think 0-0 is required followed by g6 and hope that white screws up this simple attack.} Qb7xc6 23. Qd1d3 {I still prefer Qd2 as while this is a one move tempo, it's blacks dark squares, not the light ones which are weak.} b5 24. Qd3d2 Ke8d7 25. Re1c1 Qc6b6 26. Nf3g5 Rh8c8 27. Ng5xf7 Rc8xc1 28. Qd2xc1 Qb6xd4 {I consider ths position to be equal} 29. h3 Qd4d3 {? I think that instead Ng3 was called for with the simple yet brutal threat of Ne2, Qe1, Ne4! and black is now better do to having a far superior minor piece} 30. Qc1c5 Qd3d1 31. Kg1h2 Qd1d4 32. Qc5c2 Qd4b6 33. Qc2d2 {and white is again attacking the weak dark squares which black simply cannot defend. +-} Qb6c7 34. f4 Kd7e7 35. Nf7g5 Qc7c5 36. Ng5f3 Qc5e3 {? the check cannot be allowed. b4 was a better move blockading the queen's entry into the black position} 37. Qd2b4 Ke7d7 38. a4 Qe3b6 39. Qb4f8 bxa4 40. Qf8f7 Kd7d8 41. Nf3g5 axb3 {simply hoping for a gaffe by white, but the game is already over} 42. Ng5xe6 Kd8c8 43. Qf7xf5 b2 44. Ne6xg7 Kc8c7 45. Qf5c2 Kc7d7 46. e6 Kd7e7 47. Qc2c8 b1=Q 48. Qc8d7 Ke7f6 49.
