1. d4 Nf6 2. e3 e6 3. Bd3 b6 4. f4( This is an odd opening.) Bb7 5. Nf3 c5( I usually do this to contest for the center.) 6. Nbd2 d5 7. c3 Bd6 8. O-O O-O 9. Ne5 Nfd7( I thought this would give me room for f6 and then possibly Re8 and e5. However, I did not anticipate his next move.) 10. Qh5 h6 11. Rf3 Nf6 12. Qh3 Nbd7( This is better.) 13. Rg3 Kh8 14. Ndf3 Ne4( I figured doubled pawns in the center would be more powerful than the pawn formation I have now.) 15. Bxe4 dxe4 16. Ng5 Bxe5 17. fxe5 Nxe5 18. Qh5( 18. dxe5 Qd1 + 19. Kf2 Ba6 20. c4 Bxc4 21. Bd2 Qxa1 and checkmate is imminent.) 18... Ng6 19. Nxe6( Good move.) 19... fxe6 20. Qxg6 Qf6( Forcing the queen exchange.) 21. Qxf6 Rxf6( Now his rook on g3 is useless and inactive.) 22. Bd2 Raf8 23. Rd1( 23. c4 was better.) 23... Ba6 24. c4( Forced, otherwise he would lose his bishop. 24. h3 Rf1 + 25. Rxf1 Rxf1 + 26. Kh2 Rf2 27. Bc1 Rc2) 24... Bxc4( Now I am winning by material.) 25. h3 Rf1 + 26. Rxf1 Rxf1 + 27. Kh2 Bxa2( Another pawn.) 28. dxc5 bxc5 29. Bc3 Rf7 30. Rg4 Bd5 31.
