1. c4 {Oliver is a very old friend of mine and these days we talk more about
Leicestershire and Northamptonshire than we do about chess !} 1... e5 2. g3
Nf6 3. Bg2 d5 {Black had decided to play in a sharper way than his usual style
....} 4. cxd5 Nxd5 5. Nf3 Nc6 6. d3 Be7 7. O-O O-O 8. Nc3 Nb6 {The key move
for Black to take away Whites option of playing d4 which will free his game.
the problems for Black are the same as those in James Mendes game the same
night.} 9. b3 {Taking the natural diagional from his Q. Better was Be3} 9...
Be6 10. Bb2 f6 {Making a strongpoint on e5 and taking g5 from Whites knights}
11. Rc1 Qe8 {Black was afraid of 12 Nb5 Rc8 13 Rxc6 (although he would have
been ok). If White had chosen 12 Nb5 Blacks move would have been Qd7 and he
wouldn't have to worry about a knight landing on c5 for a few moves.} 12. Ne4
Rd8 13. Nc5 Bc8 {This is a fairly standard technique. Black has ducked Whites
punches.} 14. Qc2 Nb4 15. Qb1 Rd5 {The Nc5 must be driven away asap} 16. Ne4
c5! {With a big sigh of relief. Now White can never play d4 (and live)} 17.
Nc3 Rd8 18. Ne4 Nd7 {The two pawns e5 and c5 are key to Blacks position and
must be preserved at all costs.} 19. Nfd2 Nc6 20. Nf3 {White has little to
do} 20... b6 21. Rfe1 Ndb8 {Getting the Knight out of the way.} 22. Nc3 f5
23. Ba1 Qh5 24. Qb2 Bf6 {A poor move as the threats on the long diagonal
against g7 weren't that strong. Bklack should have considered Rd6 or Rf6} 25.
Qb1 Kh8 {Avoiding future B checks on d5.} 26. Nd1 Nd4 27. Nxd4 exd4 28. Nb2
{Too slow, Whites pieces are in the wrong part of the board.} 28... f4 29.
Nc4 Bh3 30. Nd2 fxg3 31. fxg3 {hxg3 had to be played} 31... Bg5 32. Rcd1 Be3+
33. Kh1 Bxg2+ {After Rf2+ and Qxh2 it is mate.} 0-1
