The most popular move on Chessbase (RJ)} O-O 7.Bc4 {Not favoured by my engines or Chessbase. (RJ). Bd4 and Be2 are the most popular moves. (RJ)} Nbd7? {Nxe4! was much better, according to the engines and Chessbase.(RJ) We are now out of all book lines. (RJ)} 8.O-O c5 9.a5? {e5 (RJ)} b6? {In post-game analysis we felt that cd was necessary here. The engines agree. Black is now already in trouble. (RJ)} 10.e5 dxe5 {Ng5 was a little better. (RJ)} 11.dxe5 Ng4 12.Ng5 b5? {Nh6 (RJ)} 13.Bd5 {Better is Bxf7! (RJ)} Ra7 14.Qxg4 b4 {Best} 15.Qh4 {One of those happy positions where everything falls into place.

Nd3, - pretty unlikely to be played by 2 humans(RJ)} Kf7 20.Ne4 Qc7 {Nf6 is better (RJ)} 21.f5 g5? {Nf8.(RJ)} 22.Bxg5! {Taking advantage of the weakness of Black on e6. If Black recaptures, White's knight will control the game from there after the check. (RJ)} Bb7 23.Bxh6 Bxh6 24.Qh5+ {Unnecessary finessing. (RJ)} Kg8 25.Qxh6? {Too timid. 25. Qg6! Bg7 26.
