This move was recommended by Bobby Fischer. However, my opponent is not Bobby Fischer. |

Threatening Bh4+, which will prevent white from castling. |

White regains the pawn, with superior development. |
|

8. Bxf4 Nc6 9. e5
|
Creating open lines |

Here, Black should play ... Bc5+ followed by ... Nh5 and then Black gains the upper hand. |

11... Ne8

A horrible retreat, typical of the "scaredy cat" personality. The knight on e8 now has no squares. |

Preventing Bc5+, but sacrificing a pawn |

White has the bishop pair as compensation. |
|

|
13... Nxe5 14. Bb3 Bd6 15. Ne4

If White exchanges knight for bishop, then White will have a better endgame. |

White's bishops are pointing directly at the Black king. |

19... Ne7 20. Rg5

Here f6 is impossible due to the pin. |

Now black is weak on the dark squares. |

Black must give up the bishop. If Bc3, then ... Ne4, forking bishop and rook. |
|
| |
|
|
22. Bxd6 cxd6
|
Black's d-pawn is now isolated and weak. |

White dissolves the weakness. |
