[Event "Moscow"] [Site "?"] [Round "0"] [White "Uhlmann"] [Black "Smyslov"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "E15"] [Opening "Queen's Indian: 4.g3"] 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nf3 b6 4. g3 Ba6 {This has become a very popular move, especially since the 1984/85 World Championship match. If the bishop at f1 is going to be fianchettoed at g2, then the Black bishop will attack the undefended pawn at c4.} 5. b3 d5 6. Bg2 Bb4+ 7. Nfd2 {White violates the opening principle that one shouldn't move the same piece twice. 7.Bd2} 7... c5 {Being better developed Black wastes no time in attacking the White center.} 8. dxc5 {This move is a mistake since it drives Black's dark squared bishop to a better diagonal. 8.a3 Bxd2+ 9.Nxd2 Nbd7 10.dxc5 bxc5 White has gained the bishop pair but this is offset by Black's advantage in the center.} 8... Bxc5 9. Bb2 O-O 10. O-O Nc6 11. Nc3 Rc8 12. cxd5 {12.Na4 Bb4 13.cxd5 would have been a better move order since White would keep control of his d4 square.} 12... exd5 13. Na4 Nd4 14. Nc3 {Because of White's poor move order the knight must return to protect his e- pawn. 14.Re1 Nc2 15.Qxc2 would allow Black to win White's queen.} 14... Qe7 15. Re1 Nc2 16. Rf1 Nxa1 17. Qxa1 Rfd8 18. Bf3 Ba3 {White resigned, since there is no compensation for the missing exchange.} 0-1
