1. Nf3 Nf6 2. d4 g6 3. c4 Bg7 4. Nc3 O-O 5. Bg5 c5 6. e3 cxd4 7. exd4 d5 { The
Opening has transposed to a variation of the Panov-Botvinnik attack from the
Caro-Kann Defense.} 8. cxd5 Nxd5 { White excepts the isolated d-pawn in
exchange for active piece play.} 9. Qb3 Nxc3 {9...Nb6 would keep pressure on
the isolated d-pawn at the expense of moving the knight for the third time.}
10. bxc3 Nc6 11. Be2 b6 12. O-O Qd6 { This commits Black's queen too early.
12...Bb7 would have been better.} 13. Rad1 e6 14. Nd2 Na5 {14...Bb7 15.Ne4 Qd7
16.Nf6+ Bxf6 17.Bxf6 would be better for White due to the dark square
weaknesses around Black's king .} 15. Qb4 Qc7 {15...Qxb4 16.cxb4 Nc6 With
pressure against the isolated d-pawn was better.} 16. Ne4 h6 17. Qe7 { With
this intermediate move White is able to gain the bishop pair.} 17... Qxe7 18.
Bxe7 Re8 19. Nf6+ { Now the position without queens will favor White, who has
the bishop pair.} 19... Bxf6 20. Bxf6 Bb7 21. Rd3 { Played with the idea of
attacking on the h-file after a future Rh3.} 21... Bd5 22. Rh3 Kh7 23. Re1 e5
{ 23...h5 24.g4 would win a pawn while keeping a powerful attack on the h-
file.} 24. dxe5 Nc4 25. Bxc4 Bxc4 {Black resigned before White could play a
winning combination. Do you see it? If not, Gambit can demonstrate it for you
if you set Gambit up as White..} 1-0
