1. d4

This was a fun game with a nice forced checkmate at the end. Black fought well and only really made one big mistake... |

3. e3
|
I used E3 this time instead of E4. I give up control of d5 and f5 and block my dark bishop in exchange for the strenght of protecting d4. |

5... Bb4+
|
check threat. I don't mind the impending exhange as it move my bpawn closer to the centre and supports the d4 square. Since I am castleing kingside, its all good. |
|
| |
|
|
6. Nc3 Bxc3+ 7. bxc3
|
The predicated exhange is done. Black can now castle and beat white to it! |
