Most of my PGN's are with annotations, this one won't work with the annotations
attached, so I've had to copy the original PGN for this game viewer - if you need
the annotated PGN for use in your own archive, let me know and I'll post it in this
thread.
1. d4 d5 2. c4 Bf5 {immediately attacking c2} 3. Nf3
{Qb3 is regarded as better
} Nf6 4. Nc3 e6 {Queens Gambit Declined, classical - with a french defense
type pawn architecture} 5. Bf4 Bb4 6. Rc1
{White intends to simplify the
center, and open the c-file. Rc1 premtively prepares the open file.} O-O 7.
cxd5 Bxc3+ 8. Rxc3 Nxd5 9. e3
{A quiet exchange sacrafice - black will have
to oblige white by allowing him to regain a strong pawn center, with a bishop
pair. This exchange is very difficult to understand whether or not it is
accurate for either side.} Nxf4 {Black accepts the exchange for the bishop and
weakens whites pawn center} 10. exf4 Nc6 11. Be2 {preparing to castle} Bg4 {
Hoping to freeze the Knight on f3 for fear of the light bishop exchange} 12.
O-O Re8 13. h3
{displacing the bishop, or forcing the exchange} Bxf3 14. Bxf3
Qxd4
15. Bxc6 {white has an oppertunity to double blacks pawns, and weaken
what is currently a stronger pawn structure.} Qxd1 16. Rxd1 bxc6 17. Rxc6
{An
equal exchange, with a + to the position for white.} Re7 18. b3 {strengthening
the queenside pawn structure immediately.} h6 19. Kh2 e5 20. Re1
{pinning e5,
and effectively redistributing blacks rook to e8} Rae8 21. fxe5 a5 {Bringing
the pawn to a square intended to be protected after Rxe5} 22. a4 Rxe5 23. Rxe5
Rxe5 24. Rxc7
{Gaining a pawn.} Re2 25. Rc5 Rb2 26. Rxa5
{creating two passed
pawns, momentarily.} Rxb3 27. Ra8+ {preparing the path.} Kh7 28. a5 Ra3 29. a6
f6 30. a7 Ra4 31. g3 Ra3 32. Kg2
{The position has a singular liability,
blacks rook cannot leave the a file, but to check the white king. This makes
blacks pawns possible targets for the white king. However, the white king
cannot maneuver there... or can he?} Kg6 33. Kf1 Kf5 34. Ke2 {White can
relocate his king, by presenting an attack on the black rook, and can maneuver
up the b file, to the back rank if need be.} h5 35. Kd2 g5 36. Kc2
Ra2+ 37. Kb3
{White can now attack his way forward} Ra6 38. Kb4 g4 39. h4 {White creates a
strong pawn chain, note that black cannot march his king outside of his pawn
structure, or white can corral him back in with his rook.} Ra1 40. Kb5 Rb1+ 41.
Ka6 Ra1+ 42. Kb7
{White has reached the 7th rank, and is now free to march
behind the black pawns. If black redistributes his rook, white can promote,
blacks king cannot defend all three pawns, and whites mobolity takes key
precedence.} Rb1+ 43. Kc7 Rc1+ 44. Kd7 Rd1+ 45. Ke7 Re1+ 46. Kf7
{Black cannot
defend against the invader, and blacks rook must return to the a file.} 1-0
