1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bb5 g6 4 O-O (4 c3; 4d4) Bg7 5 c3 d6 6 d4 Bd7 7 d5 Ne7 8 Bd7 Qd7 9 c4 Nf6 10 Nc3 O-O 11 Be3(Better is 11 b4 with 12 Ne1 and 13 f3 to follow, White can than meet 11...a5 with 12 Ba3) 11...Ng4 12 Bd2 h6 13 h3?! (13 Ne1 with 14 f3 was still better) 13...Nf6 14 b4 g5 15 Ne1 Ng6 16 Nd3 Nf4 17 Bf4 gf4 (17...ef4 was to be considered) 18 c5 Nh7 19 Kh2 f5? (A big mistake. Now White can take over the e4 square) 20 f3 Ng5 21 Rc1 a6?! 22 Nf2! Qf7 23 Qd3 Qh5?! (A useless move, but it is difficult to suggest anything better for Black, as his position is already strategically without prospects) 24 ef5 Rf5 25 Nce4(not Qf5?? Nf3+!!) 25...Ne4?! (Black should have played 25...Nf7 to make white's Nf2 superfluous) 26 Ne4 Qg6 27 cd6 cd6 28 Rc7! Rf7 29 Rfc1 Re8 30 Rf7 Kf7 31 Rc7+ Re7 32 Qc4 Bf8 33 a4 h5 34 a5 h4 35 Re7+ Be7 36 Qc7+-  (Black will soon lose his queenside pawns) 1-0 (Notes by Justin Daniel)
