[Event "Match 'Idaho - Utah'"] [Site "Twin Falls (ID)"] [Round "1.3"] [White "Clark Farrell L (UT) (+)"] [Black "Buckendorf Glen (ID)"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "A21"] [Opening "English: King's, 2.Nc3 d6 3.g3"] 1. c4 e5 2. Nc3 d6 3. g3 f5 4. d3 Nf6 5. Bg2 c6 {Well played.} 6. e3 {White must hit the center to cause Black technical problems. White's failure to do so simply yields the advantage to Black.} Be7 7. Nge2 Be6 8. b3 d5 9. cxd5 { This exchange gives Black c6 for his N.} cxd5 10. O-O O-O 11. Kh1 {Locking the center with f2-f4 is necessary. This would allow White to place a N on d4 with plenty of play.} Nc6 12. Bb2 Qd7 13. Qd2 Nh5 14. Rad1 {? Last chance for f2-f4. } f4 15. exf4 exf4 16. gxf4 {16 Nxf4 is better. It swaps the Ns and allows White to place the Q's N at e2. Even this might not be good enough now, though. } Bd6 17. Nxd5 Bxd5 18. Bxd5+ Kh8 19. Rg1 {?} Bb4 20. Nc3 Bxc3 21. Qxc3 Qxd5+ 22. Rg2 Rf7 23. Rdg1 Ne7 {23 ...Nxf4 is faster. The next few moves could have been saved for next year.} 24. h3 Ng6 25. Kh2 Nhxf4 26. Rg3 Ne2 27. h4 Rxf2+ 28. R1g2 Rxg2+ 29. Rxg2 Nxc3 {Clark was a victim of his own sword. All Glen did was develop.} {#R} 0-1
