1. d4
Go back a move to see more details.

 
1... d5 2. e3 e6
Not exactly standered but not bad, queen openings were never my favorite.

 
3. Nf3 c5
3 pawn moves in a row, I should think about getting those minor pieces out instead.

 
4. c3
An okay defence...highly passive though.

 
4... Nc6 5. a3
Too many pawn moves for white. Although his position looks solid, he is behind devolopement wise and will have a very cramped game.

 
5... Nf6 6. b4
Another pawn move? The time is ripe to land my knight on b3.

 
6... c4
This puts a pawn in white territory which cannot be traded off and incidently will be very useful for supporting the knight when I put it on b3.

 
7. b5
Over extending...this proves destructive.

 
7... Na5 8. h3
Nbd2 is a must. The knight cannot be allowed on b3.

 
8... Nb3
What are knights for but cramping your opponents style?

 
9. Ra2
Crampage.

 
9... Bd7
That b5 pawn just isn't going to survive.

 
10. a4 a6
Winning a pawn.

 
11. b6
The pawn loss is unavoidable. 11. bxa6 Rxa6 12. ... Bxa4 makes a nasty discovery on white's queen.

 
11... Qxb6
What else is there?

 
12. Nbd2
This knight needed to be there a few moves earlier.

 
12... Nxc1
Just to mess up his devolopement some more...

 
13. Qxc1 Bd6 14. a5
not a bad move...but if I were him I'd stop the pawn moves and get the minor pieces out.

 
14... Qc7 15. Be2 O-O 16. Nf1
16. O-O is what he should have done 16 ... Bh2 doesn't do anything because of 17. Nxh2.

 
16... Bb5
The bishop does nothing more on b5, I was just wasting a move to see if he would do his next move.
