For this game my team captain has inducted me in the 'order of shammah', for he thought this is a beautiful game. It is not a team game, but I knew he likes this such of games, so I had sended a message about this game. I was very very suprised and very pleasured with the inducting i got. As thanksgiving for the inducting I make this annotating. I hope you think it is useful.

I should not do f5, but Nf6, but this was a thematic game(minitournament) and so I had no choiche.

2. c4 Nf6
This 2 moves are very common(the first moves when you look in the chess database)

 
3. Nf3
relatively not common, 212 out of 1872 in the chess database. I cant good explain why I did.

 
3... e6
very common move(chess database) You get a strong row of pawns(the pawn at f6 is defended better) and you have a better defending against the pawns who stand at d4 and c4. And it is the preparation for my attack in move 5. Until this move it is the Dutch defense(it was also the theme of the minitournament, so it is very logical)

4. d5
Now he does something very uncommon. Until the previous move it is played nearly 500 times on GK, but nobody has played this move!! NOBODY out of nearly 500!! Maybe he wanted delete my pawn at e6, that was defending my pawn et f5?? Maybe he wanted to clean the board a little?? Maybe he did something?? Maybe it was a very smart move, maybe it was a blunder. I dont know exactly, to be honest. But it is curious, that nobody out of 500 did this, and he did.

 
4... exd5
In every case, I take his pawn, I accept the offer.

 
5. cxd5
Of course he took my pawn back.

 
5... Bb4+
Due to move 3 I have space to move my bishop out of the line. Now I attack the king, what nearly always is advantageful, I make possibilities to make the rochade, and I am more active now.

 
6. Nc3
He must move a piece between my bishop and his king, and in this way he is defending his paqn better too.

6... O-O
I use the possibilities I created a move ago and I make the rochade.

 
7. Bd2
Euh, I think he makes the defending of the king stronger and the defending of the knight too. And he could make the rochade, if he moved the queen too.

 
7... Qe7
defending the bishop....

 
8. g3
to make space for the bishop....

 
8... Qc5 9. Bg2
moving the bishop away to make possibilities for the rochade

 
9... Bxc3
give a bishop for a knight.

 
10. Bxc3
of course he takes the knight back.

 
10... Nxd5
attacks the bishop for the second time, for persuading him, that we can attack the king again, with the queen.

 
11. Bd2
the bishop is running away

 
11... Nc6
That knight gives support to the other knight and the queen
