1.e4 c6 2.c4 d5 3.cxd5?!
[3.exd5 cxd5 4.d4 Nf6 5.Nc3 e6 6.Nf3 is book.]

3...cxd5 4.exd5 Qxd5?
[4...Nf6 5.Nc3 Nxd5 6.Nf3 Nc6 7.d4 Bg4 8.Qb3 Bxf3 9.gxf3 e6 10.Qxb7= Adams-Dreev Wijk-aan-Zee 2002]

5.Nc3 Qd8?!
[5...Qd6 is better.]

6.d4 e6 7.Nf3 Nf6 8.Bg5
[8.Bc4 Be7 9.0-0 Nc6= ]

8...Be7 9.Bb5+?
White is then forced to move his Bishop again. [9.Bd3 Nc6 10.0-0 0-0+/= ]

9...Bd7 10.Bd3 0-0 11.0-0 Nc6 12.Re1 Rc8 13.a3 Na5?
I am not sure what this is trying to achieve?

14.Qe2
[14.Ne5! Be8 15.Bc2 h6 16.Bh4+/- gives White a strong attack.]

14...Bc6 15.Be3?
[15.Rad1 seems more logical.]

15...Qc7 16.Ne5 Nd5?! 17.Nxd5?!
this removes the tension in the centre.

17...Bxd5 18.Rac1 Nc6 19.Qh5 f5?
[19...g6 20.Qh3 Bf6+/= would be a better defence.]

20.g4!? g6 21.Nxg6!! hxg6 22.Qxg6+ Kh8 23.Qh6+ Kg8 24.Bf4 Qd7?
[Fritz suggests the desparate 24...Bg5 25.Qxg5+ Qg7 26.Qxg7+ Kxg7 27.gxf5 exf5+- ]

25.Qg6+ Kh8 26.Re3 Bh4 27.Rh3
[27.Rxc6!! freeing the Bishop check]

27...Qh7 28.Qxh7+ Kxh7 29.Rxh4+ Kg6 30.g5?
[30.gxf5+ exf5 31.Rh6+ Kg7 32.Rd6! threatening Bh6 and B on d5. 32...Rfd8 33.Bxf5 Rxd6 34.Bxc8+- ]

30...Nxd4 31.Rh6+ Kg7??
[31...Kf7 was forced. 32.Rxc8 Rxc8 33.Kf1 e5 34.Be3 Bf3 and White still has the work to do.]

32.Be5+ Kf7 33.Rxc8
[33.g6+! was also possible.]

33...Nf3+ 34.Kf1 Rxc8 35.g6+ Ke7 36.Rh7+ Ke8 37.Rh8+ 1-0
