1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Bc5 4. b4 Bxb4 5. c3 Bc5 6. d4 exd4 7. cxd4 Bb6 8.
O-O Na5 {This loses time and puts the knight out of the game. Black wants to
play ...d5, but he isn't ready to castle, so his king will feel a draft.} 9.
Bd3 d5 10. exd5 Qxd5 {After this Black is losing. With the e-file open White
is ready to jump on the enemy king. Black had to play 10...Ne7, though after
11 Ba3 it's pretty grim, since 11...O-O loses to 12 Re1 Re8 13 Ng5.} 11. Ba3
Be6 {Black sees the e-file needs protection, but this doesn't help.} 12. Nc3
Qd7 13. d5 Bxd5 14. Nxd5 Qxd5 15. Bb5+ { This shot deflects the queen from the
center files allowing White to invade.} 15... Qxb5 16. Re1+ Ne7 17. Rb1 {White
gets a little carried away with the deflection theme, as Black might resist a
little by giving up his queen with 17...Qd7. White should just capture on e7.}
17... Qa6 18. Rxe7+ Kf8 19. Qd5 Qc4 20. Rxf7+ Kg8 21. Rf8# 1-0
1-0
