  • 1. e4 e5 2. Ng1f3 Ng8f6 3. Bf1c4 d6 4. Nf3xe5
    Up to here a standard opening, but white moves knight for the second time. Considered a no-no until other pieces have been developed.
    • 4... Qd8e7
      Black should have captured the knight with the queen's pawn. As a result, black is now already a pawn down.
      • 5. Ne5g6
        On the face of it, a stupid move by white who could have got its knight out of danger. Maybe counting on black doing the same bad move again, maybe just carelessness.
        • 5... fxg6
          Black did the right thing this time, although it may have messed up black's castling.
          • 6. O-O Bc8e6 7. Nb1c3
            stupid move by white, who should have protected or retreated that white-square bishop currently under threat.
            • 7... Be6xc4
              Black did the right thing and is now threatening white's rook as well.
              • 8. Nc3d5
                Another stupid move by white, considering that endangered rook.
                • 8... Nf6xd5
                  White made the wrong choice (a 3-point knight, rather than a 6-point rook).
                  • 9. exd5 Bc4xd5 10. d3
                    Wonder why white didn't do Re1 and skewer black's queen and king? Another stupid move by white.
                    • 10... Nb8c6 11. d4
                      White's just used 2 moves to take the D pawn 2 steps, could have been done in 1. Not productive, and still ignoring that lovely skewer.
