Foran,Jim - Judd,Ian [B00]
CT 28490, 2005
[Notes by David Hardy]
1.e4
d5
2.e5
Avoiding prepared lines 2...Nc6
[2...c5
can lead to either a French or Caro-Kann] 3.d4
f6
4.f4
Bf5
5.Nf3
Qd7
6.Bb5
a6
7.Bd3
0-0-0
8.Nbd2
Bxd3
9.cxd3
Qg4
10.g3
Jim's opening idea seems to have backfired - Ian needs to open some lines. 10...g5
[10...e6
11.Qe2
h5
12.Nf1
Nh6
13.Ne3
Qg6
leaves White with something to prove] 11.Nb3
e6
12.fxg5
fxe5
[12...Bb4+
13.Bd2
(13.Kf2
fxe5
14.Nxe5
Nxe5
15.dxe5
Qf5+
16.Bf4
h6
) 13...Bxd2+
14.Nfxd2
Qxg5
both look fine for Black ] 13.Nxe5
Nxe5
14.dxe5
Bb4+
15.Bd2
Bxd2+
16.Qxd2
Ne7
[16...Rf8
this look strange but I think Ian needed to exchange a pair of Rooks whilst trying to leave the White king in the centre] 17.Rf1
Nf5?!
[17...Rhf8
18.Rf6
Ng8
19.Rxf8
Rxf8
20.Qe2
Qxg5
again I prefer Black] 18.Qf4
Qh3
19.Rf2
Rhf8
20.Nc5
chess is about timing and here Jim siezes the perfect moment to hop the Knight in. 20...Rde8
21.Rc1
d4
22.Qe4
if c6 then Nxb7 crashes in 1-0
