1.e4 "best by test" bobby fischer. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
1... Nc6 2. d4 
 | 
a central thrust. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
2... e5 
 | 
counter attack. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
3. d5 
 | 
gains space at the cost of leaving weak squares in its path. The game is already set for me to try to use my space advantage to its fullest. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
3... Na5 
 | 
a knight on the rim is grim. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
4. Nf3 
 | 
striking at e5 | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
4... f6 
 | 
? be very careful when moving this f pawn. the diagonal to the king is now weak. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
5. Nxe5 
 | 
this knight sacrifice is justified. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
5... fxe5 6. Qh5+ g6 7. Qxe5+ 
 | 
double attack!!!! only possible due to my space advantage. not possible if the knight were still on c6. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
7... Qe7 8. Qxh8 Qxe4+ 9. Be3 Qxc2 10. Nd2 Nf6

11. Qxf6 Be7 12. Qh8+ Bf8 13. Bh6 
 | 
threatening mate on f8 | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
13... Qf5 
 | 
5 points up,  I am more than willing to trade down to a winning endgame. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
14. Qxf8+ Qxf8 15. Bxf8 Kxf8 16. b4 
 | 
Oh no! the knight is dominated! | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
16... Nc6 
 | 
I would have left the knight and let white double rook pawns. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
17. dxc6 dxc6 18. Bc4 Bf5 19. O-O-O 
 | 
why push my king away on g1 when the queens are gone, and I am in a trading mood. this keeps the king somewhat central and brings the rook to the center open file. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
19... Rd8 20. Rhe1 Re8 
 | 
just playing into my game. for black I think his only chance was to push that queenside majority while backing the push with his remaining rook and bishop. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
21. Rxe8+ Kxe8 22. Nf3 Be4

 | 
23. Re1 b5 24. Rxe4+ Kd8 25. Bg8 Kd7 26. Bxh7 Kd6 27. Bxg6 c5 
 | 
only now is the majority used. too little too late. |
