Grdelica's rating of 1907 is probably high than my own. |
| | |

1... Nf6 2. Bg5 Ne4 3. Bf4 g6 |
Already I was a little uncomfortable out of the opening, since I thought it might be good for black if the position were to open. |
| | |
|
4. e3 Bg7 5. Bd3 Nf6 6. Nf3 O-O 7. Nbd2 c5 8. c3 |
Eight moves in, the tension remains. I would rather have black take cxd. |
| | |
|
8... b6 |
This move looked like it significantly weakened the long diagonal. However, I could see no practical ways of exploiting the possible weakness. |
| | |
|
9. Qe2 Bb7 10. O-O d6 |
My idea here is to weaken black on the light squares. |
| | |
|
11. h3 Nbd7 12. Rac1 Rc8 13. Bg5 |
I considered the bishop not very good in f4, while black has a useful knight. |
| | |
|
13... Qc7 14. Bxf6 Bxf6 15. Rfd1 |
I played this move after a lot of consideration. I have consolidated my pieces defensively. I am waiting for the black attack to begin. |
| | |
|
15... Bg7 16. Be4 Nf6 17. Bxb7 Qxb7 18. Qd3 cxd4 19. cxd4 Rxc1 20. Rxc1 Rc8 21. Rxc8+ Qxc8 |
After the long sequence of forcing moves, pawn structure remains symmetrical in a simplified position. |
| | |
|
22. Kh2 Qc6 23. Nf1 |
An awkward, bad move. |
| | |
|
23... Qc1 24. Ng3 Qxb2 |
I thought, OK, maybe black is winning this. |
| | |
|
25. Ng5 Qxf2 26. Qc4 |
White threatens Qxf7#. |
| | |
|
26... Ne8 |
This move turns out to lose the game, as the black queen will be trapped after N3e4. |

And where is black's queen going? White's knights dominate the position. |
| | |
|
29... Be5+ |
A desperate attempt. |

And black just resigned here. How is black saving the queen? The black position is under tremendous pressure; Qxe8+ is also a threat. |
