My first reason for choosing this is to form a direct pawn attack on the center. My second reason is that I prefer preceding Bf5 with Ne7 to protect it}5.h3 {This, like 2. a3, seems to waste time by not opening up squares for minor pieces or directly participating in the attack. 5.

Bxc6+ bxc6 leaves e5 hanging so I should have immediately played Bd6} 8.Bxc6+ bxc6 9.Nf3? {again missing dxe5}exd4{this mistakenly opens a file for his rooks. e4 would have been better by obtaining more kingside space with tempo } 10.Nxd4 c5 11.Nf3 Bd6?? {Blunders a pawn with 12.

This was premature due to possible moves such as 17. Nd4 centralizing the white knight with tempo} 17.Bd4 {clearing the e file for a rook battery} Bf5 18.Nbd2 Qd7{Better would have been to immediately start the b file attack with Qb8} 19.Rac1? {Serves no purpose. a4 to kick the rook back would have been better}Rfb8 20.b4? {In order to stop the queenside attack, Shredder recommends sacrificing knight for two pawns 20.
