1. c4 f5 2. g3 Nf6 3. Bg2 g6 4. Nf3 Bg7 5. O-O d6 6. d3 Allowing ... e5 uncontested seems to give Black an easy game. 6... e5 7. Nc3 O-O 8. e4 Na6 9. exf5 Bxf5 10. Nh4 Bg4 11. f3 Bc8 12. Rb1 Nc5 13. b4 Ne6 14. Ne2 Fritz 9 evaluates this position as a significant advantage for Black. The advantage dissipates over the next several moves, though. I need to figure out how to play this position more strongly. 14... c6 15. Bh3 Qb6+ 16. Kh1 Nd4 17. Bxc8 Raxc8 18. Nxd4 Qxd4 19. Qb3 Kh8 20. Bb2 Qb6 21. Ng2 Qc7 22. f4 exf4 23. Nxf4 Rce8 24.

Qe8 Nf6 32. Qe7+ 1-0
