[Event "Simultaneous Exhibition"] [Site "?"] [Round "0"] [White "Kasparov"] [Black "Comas"] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "A05"] [Opening "Reti: 1...Nf6"] 1. Nf3 Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7 4. e4 d6 5. d4 { By transposition we have reached the King's Indian Defense.} 5... O-O 6. Be2 e5 7. O-O Nbd7 {More commonly seen is 7...Nc6.} 8. Qc2 c6 {Black should take the opportunity to open up the a1-h8 diagonal for his dark squared bishop with 8... exd4 9.Nxd4 Re8, when Black has solved his opening problems.} (8... exd4 9. Nxd4 Re8) 9. Rd1 Re8 10. Rb1 a5 {Black should open up the position before White gains a space advantage with 11.d5. Better was 10...exd4.} 11. d5 cxd5 12. cxd5 { Black's main problem in this position is the inactivity of his pieces.} 12... Nc5 13. Be3 Bd7 14. Bxc5 { Giving Black the two bishops in exchange for a powerful passed pawn.} 14... dxc5 15. Bb5 Nh5 16. g3 {Played to keep Black's knight inactive on h5.} 16... Bg4 {A miscalculation which costs Black material. Still, White has a winning position because of his passed pawn, combined with Black's inactive pieces.} 17. Bxe8 Bxf3 18. Rd3 Bg4 19. Bb5 {Black resigned perhaps a bit prematurely, though he is the exchange down with no counter play.} 1-0
