[Opening "Sicilian: Scheveningen"]
1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 e6 {The Scheveningen
Variation of the Sicilian Defense, where Black's pawn cover all the central
squares.} 6. Be3 a6 7. g4 {This is Keres' idea and is played with the obvious
intention of disorganizing Black's development, while launching a kingside
attack.} 7... Nc6 8. g5 Nd7 9. Rg1 Be7 10. h4 O-O {This move appears to be
castling into the attack. However, where else is the king to go?} 11. h5 Nde5
12. Nxc6 Nxc6 13. f4 b5 14. Qf3 Bb7 15. Bd3 { White intends to open up the
b1-h7 diagonal for his bishop.} 15... Nb4 16. f5 exf5 17. Qxf5 Nxd3+ 18. cxd3
Qc8 {Black, not wishing to be mated in the middlegame, proposes an ending with
the exchange of queens.} 19. h6 Re8 20. hxg7 Qxf5 21. exf5 Bxg5 {Black reminds
me that my king, having stayed in the center, is also exposed to attack.} 22.
Rxg5 Rxe3+ 23. Kd2 Rf3 24. Ne4 Bxe4 25. dxe4 {The rook and pawn ending favors
White due to my menacing pawn on g7.} 25... Re8 26. Rc1 d5 27. e5 {Reminds
Black of his weakened back rank.} 27... h6 {Played to make a flight square for
his king at h7. 27...Rxe5 allows a forced mate.} 28. Rh5 Rxe5 {This move
allows me to take advantage of Black's weakened back rank. For better or worse
Black had to try 28...Kxg7.} 29. f6 Rf2+ { 29...Rxh5 Leads to a forced mate,
and 29...Re8 30.Rxh6 is winning for White since Black has no defense against
31.Rh8+ mate.} 30. Kd3 Rf3+ 31. Kd4 Re4+ 32. Kxd5 Re8 33. Rxh6 Rf5+ 34. Kd4
Rf4+ 35. Kc5 Re5+ 36. Kb6 Re6+ 37. Rc6 { Black resigned as he has no good
defense to 38.Rh8+ mate.} 1-0
1-0
