1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 g6
not the best line but playable.

 
3. Bc4
developing pieces and pressing the weak points (f7 in that case).

 
3... Bg7 4. O-O d6 5. Ng5
wasting moves... better is c3 with d4 later on.

 
5... e6 6. d3 Nc6 7. c3
preventing from the c6 knught moving forward and blocking the g7 bishop.

 
7... a6 8. Qf3
8. f4 must be better than Qf3...

 
8... Qf6 9. Qxf6 Nxf6 10. Bf4 d5 11. exd5 exd5
black gets a nice control of the center.

 
12. Bb3 Be6 13. Re1
must play Nd2 an free the queen side rook.

 
13... c4
? misses the Nxe6 move and loosing a pawn.

 
14. dxc4 dxc4 15. Nxe6 fxe6 16. Bxc4 O-O
and another pawn...

 
17. Bxe6+ Kh8 18. g3
white seems to have now a great advantage. nevertheless, he must keep it because two pawns up can be a bit "slippery".

 
18... Rfe8 19. Na3 Rad8 20. Bb3 b5 21. Rxe8+
the side with the advantage will always want to exchage pieces.

 
21... Rxe8 22. Kg2 Re2 23. Rb1 Ng4
??

 
24. Kf3
! a nice move. not every day you see a king that forks two pieces.
