[Event "telex"] [Site "?"] [Round "0"] [White "Kasparov"] [Black "West"] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "B29"] [Opening "Sicilian: Nimzowitsch, 3.Nc3"] 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. Nc3 e6 4. d4 cxd4 5. Nxd4 Bb4 { Black is willing to lose a lot of time to weaken White's queenside.} 6. e5 Nd5 7. Bd2 Nxc3 8. bxc3 Bf8 { Black doesn't like the looks of 8...Be7 9 Qg4, but now he's down four tempi.} 9. Bd3 d6 {Offering to open lines with the opponent so far ahead in development is suicidal, but he probably didn't like 9...Nc6 10 Qe2 either.} 10. Qe2 Nd7 {Blocking in his bishop like this is a bad idea anyway, and here it loses by force.} 11. Nxe6 Qb6 {11...fxe6 12 Qh5+ doesn't work after either 12...g6 13 Bxg6+ hxg6 14 Qxg6+ Ke7 15 Bg5+ or 12...Ke7 13 Bg5+.} 12. Nc7+ { 12...Qxc7 loses the queen after 13 exd6+, so Black loses a whole rook.} 1-0
