Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 d5 5. exd5 Na5 6. Bb5+ c6 7. dxc6 bxc6 8. Qf3 Rb8 {This move came about as a result of analysis by E.E. Colman, in a Japanese P.O.W. camp, during W.W.II. Black sacrifices a pawn for good attacking chances.} 9. Bd3 ({Instead} 9. Bxc6+ Nxc6 10. Qxc6+ Nd7 11. d3 Be7 12. Ne4 Rb6 13. Qa4 f5 14. Ng3 O-O {etc}) 9... Qc7 10. Nc3 h6 11. Nge4 Nd5 12. Ng3 g6 {Protecting f5 and threatening a suitable f5 to compromise White's piece development} 13. Nxd5 cxd5 14. Qxd5 Bb7 15. Bb5+ {The only way to secure a square for the Queen} (15. Qb5+ Bc6 16. Qa6 Bb4 17. a3 (17. Be2 Rb6 18. Qd3 O-O {with an obvious advantage}) 17... Rb6 {would be one way of winning the Queen}) 15... Ke7 {The Long March" begins!} 16. Qd3 Bxg2 17. Rg1 Bh3 18. b4 Nc6 19. Qc4 $2 {Better was to exchange the Knight, though Black retains the two Bishops in an open position!} (19. Bxc6 Qxc6) 19... Rxb5 $1 {Instantly! Now the game becomes intersting for players and spectators, as I had only 10 minutes to reach the time-control at move 36.} 20. Qxb5 $2 (20. c3) 20... Nd4 21. Qd3 Qxc2 22. Qa3 Qc7 23. b5+ Ke6 {Moving the g to the d-file allows Qd3 (pinning the Knight) and gains the tempo to play Rb1} (23... Ke8 24. Qa4 Nc2+ 25. Kd1 Nxa1 26. b6+ Qd7 27. Qxa7 {looks dangerous in TT}) 24.

Nc3+ {end}) 34. Qxf7+ Kg5 35. h4+ Kxh4 36. Rc2 {As my TT move has yet to be played then Qf6+ would have been a better try, though I would not have fallen for Kh5 followed by g3 mate!} (36. Qf6+ Kh5 37. Ng3#) 36... Ng1 {Saving a tempo over Nd4. Now, that the time-control has been reached, White could resign. The remaining moves were "just for fun!"} 37. Qf6+ g5 38. Qxe5 Bd6 39.
