I copied this game from one of my chess books ... It 's a short game with a valuable lesson. | |
|
1. f4 |
Bird' s opening |
| | |
|
1... d5 2. e3 c5 3. b3 |
White's bishop must develop on the b2 square otherwise it might be jammed |
| | |
|
3... e6 4. Bb2 Nf6 5. Nf3 Be7 6. Bd3 |
When both the bishops are aligned like this they become extremely deadly |
| | |
|
6... O-O 7. Ng5 |
the h7 pawn is in danger |
| | |
|
7... g6 8. h4 |
Bringing the pawns up in front ensure blacks doom |
| | |
|
8... Nh5 |
This not only stops the pawn development but also allows an exchange between the knight and the bishop but it is still a bad move ..... |
| | |
|
9. Qxh5 |
Qxh5! Brilliant if gxh5 then Bxh7 So as black cannot kill the queen and the Qxh7 another mate Black is forced to kill the knight |
| | |
|
9... Bxg5 10. Qxh7+ |
Qxh7 Blacks game is falling right down on him |
| | |
|
10... Kxh7 11. hxg5+ Kg8 12. Rh8# |
And a beautiful short game |
