1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bd3
|
an odd move for a weaker player, Bc4 being the main line, this move weakens his position and eventually leads to terrible consequences |

|
|
|
3... Bc5 4. O-O d6 5. Nc3 Bg4 6. h3 Bxf3 7. Qxf3 Nd4 8. Qg4 Qf6
|
blunder by me, allows Nd5! |

|
|
|
9. Nd5
|
! attacks the queen, threatens Nxc7 fork, also threatens Qxg7 winning the rook if Qd8 |

|
|
|
9... Qg6
|
the lesser of all the evils, loses the rook, but takes his knight out of the game |

|
|
|
10. Nxc7+ Kd8 11. Nxa8 Qxg4
|
cracks open his castle |

|
|
|
12. hxg4 Nf6 13. g5 Nh5 14. Bc4
|
terrible move, allows my knights to run wild |

|
|
|
14... Nxc2
|
pins the pawn on f2 to his king |

|
|
|
15. Rb1
|
rooks only square |

|
|
|
15... Ng3
|
he can't take because of the bishop pin |

|
|
|
16. Rd1
|
again a forced rook move and his king is in trouble |

|
|
|
16... h6
|
the ultimate poisoned pawn, if he takes Rxh6 checkmate on the h file is forced |

|
|
|
17. gxh6
|
he takes |

|
|
|
17... Rxh6
|
game over |

|
|
|
18. d3
|
weak attack because all of his other pieces are immobilised and his king is completely helpless |

|
|
|
18... Rh1#
|
even down a full rook, an open file can still dominate |

|
