3... Nc6
|
Controlling the e5 square and preparing Nf6. |
|
| |
|
|
4. c3
|
?! White risks to fall back in development. There is no way he can play d2-d4 on the next move, therefore his 4. c3 is pointless. |
|
| |
|
|
4... Nf6
|
Now the d5 square is controlled and black is ready to play d7-d5. |
|
| |
|
|
5. d3
|
?! Very passive pawn play, black is already clearly better developed. |
|
| |
|
|
5... d5 6. exd5 exd5
|
Black seizes the initiative. |
|
| |
|
|
7. Bb5 Bg4 8. Bxc6+
|
?! The bishop made three moves to get exchanged for a knight that made just one move. |

Not a good square for the Queen - here it is vulnerable. |
|
| |
|
|
9... Bd6
|
Eqploiting the position of the white Queen. |
|
| |
|
|
10. Qe3+
|
If 10. Bf4 then black plays the intermezzo 10. ...Qe7 |
|
| |
|
|
10... Kd7
|
! gaining another tempo - now Re8 winning the queen is threatened. |
|
| |
|
|
11. Qd2 Re8+ 12. Kf1 Qe7
|
Black has developed 5 pieces while white has only one piece playing. |
|
| |
|
|
13. f3
|
What else? White pieces are tied down. He tries to secure the e2 square. |
|
| |
|
|
13... Rab8
|
!? The advantage in development has to be exploited as soon as possible. |
|

14. fxg4
|
After some thought white accepts the sacrifice. |
|
| |
|
|
14... Nxg4
|
Threatening Bf4. |
|
| |
|
|
15. Nf3
|
This leaves the e2 square vulnerable and black immediately regains his sacrificed piece.
How else could white continue development?
15. Na3 might look like a good alternative, but it runs into 15. ...Rxb2!! - conquering the important e3 square for the knight.
The best was 15. Qe2, but then black could continue his attack with 15. ...Qh4 |
|
| |
|
|
15... Bf4
|
! |
|
| |
|
|
16. Qc2
|
If 16. Qxf4 then 16. ...Qe2 17. Kg1 and 17. ...Qf2# |
|
| |
|
|
16... Bxc1
|
White can't recapture and is now completely lost. Black threatens both Ne3 and Rxb2 winning. |
