1. Nf3 Nf6 2. g3 g6 3. Bg2 Bg7 4. O-O O-O 5. c4 d5 6. cxd5 Nxd5 7. Nc3 Nxc3 8.
bxc3 c5 9. d4 cxd4 10. cxd4 Nc6 {So far the game has followed a normal opening
pattern. Keith's next move suggests he wants to compete with the Black bishop
along the long dark squared diagonal.} 11. Bb2 Qb6 12. Bc3 Rd8 13. Rb1 Qa6 (
13... Nxd4 14. Rxb6 Nxf3+ 15. Bxf3 Rxd1 16. Rxd1 axb6 17. Rd8+ Bf8 18. Bd5 {
Black is completely immobilsed and is helpless against White advancing a pawn
to f6 and then winning the bishop on f8.}) 14. Qb3 {More sensible moves by
both sides but Keith's last move sets a deep trap.} Bf5 $2 {This seems the
most natural move on the board developing a piece and attacking White's rook
on b1.} 15. e4 $1 Bxe4 $2 {and Black does not see the trap set by Keith on
move 14.} (15... Bg4 {would have kept White's advantage to a manageable level.}
) 16. Ng5 {This move is not hard to see but Keith has to calculate the
consequences of sacrificing his rook on b1.} Bxb1 17. Qxf7+ Kh8 18. d5 $1 {
This is the key move which Keith had to see on move 14.} Rg8 ({If} 18... Bxc3 {
then} 19. Qxh7#) 19. dxc6 h6 ({If} 19... Bxa2 {then} 20. cxb7 $1 {is nice as
after} Bxf7 21. Nxf7#) 20. Rxb1 hxg5 21. Qxg6 {and mate cannot be avoided.
Well played Keith, an excellent played game.} 1-0
