1... e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 Bb4
The French Winawer is an opening i began to play when i found a nice Book in a bookshop for £2.00 ...One of only a few books i own and have read ferverously. From here it is up to white to choose , but carefully as each variation is unstable with no time to stumble ... Im not a good enough player yet to understand why there unstable but they are.

 
4. Bd2
The keres gambit 4.Bd2... Most games i play are due to 4.e5 locking in the pawns but this variation allows black to snaffle some pawns while white gets stuck in on the king side.

 
4... dxe4 5. Qg4 Nf6
all known theory and quite relieving for me as most of my games encounter 4.e5 and the knight always seams awkward to me on e7 after whites kingside thrust.

 
6. Qxg7 Rg8
This has all known theory so far and the moves just come naturally.

 
7. Qh6 Qxd4 8. O-O-O
I have an extra pawn with my Queen expecting a discovery by white at any time

 
8... Bf8
This position has been played before between Boleslavsky and Bronstien ,but we got here in a different move order , this Bishop move back to f8 has a strong pyschological effect as it goes back to its origional square and puts the white Queen in decision time.

 
9. Qf4
Now here Bd6 or Rg4 have been played before in competition but i tryed something new.

9... c5
A new move i havent read about or seen before ... although blacks position seems to have a lot of holes the centre is quite active and peices can still develop to the protection of the king.

c7 under some pressure and mostly the reason for moving c5.

10... Nd5
Attack and defence.

 
11. Nc7+ Nxc7 12. Qxc7
So the Queen has c7 after all and can smell the king.

 
12... Nd7
Just saving the Bishop.

13. Bg5
Oh Dear an inevitable discovery with mate to follow ...... But my Active CENTRE should be sound.

 
13... Rxg5 14. Rxd4 cxd4
Level material and White to play .... Both of us have Developed slowly and have awkward decisions to make.The two pawns look happy togeather in the centre and mostly my reason for this variation.

 
15. a4
I thought this move unfortunate for white ... I couldnt really see Where he was going with it ......The bishop to b5 cant get took by the rook but its too slow and it allows me to take command of the centre.

16. Qf4
My Attack plan was under way now .. i saw a possible check from the Dark Squared Bishop , i had to get my Rook activated , the lazy white squared Bishop to move some how

 
16... d3 17. Qxe4 Rxc2+
Hello King........

 
18. Kd1 Nc5
Hello Queen.... Attack and Defence.
