1.Nf3 Nf6 2.g3 d5 3.Bg2 c6 4.d4 Bg4 5.O-O h6 6.c4 e6 7.cxd5 cxd5 8.Qa4+ Nc6 9.Ne5 Bxe2 10.Nxc6 bxc6 {JW: ?! Qd7 was slightly better} 11.Qxc6+ Nd7 12.Re1 Rc8 13.Qa4 Qb6 14.Nc3 Ba6 15.Bxd5! {15.Nxd5 may have been even better!} Be7 16.Bg2 Rc4 17.Qc2 Qxd4 18.Be3 Qf6 19.Rad1 Nb6 20.Bf1!? Bb7! 21.Bxc4 Qf3 22.Kf1 {23.Bb5+ first was better... JW:Bb5+ first is winning, I'd overlooked Kf1 when I played 19.Nb6} Qg2+ 23.Ke2 Bf3+ {JW: ? Black should start with Nxc4 as now white can play Kd3, I just assumed during play that black must have something strong if white goes into the centre with the king, but it turns out it's just an illusion} 24.Kd2 Nxc4+ 25.Kc1 O-O? {25...Bxd1 first... JW: Bxd1 is objectively better but given the time control I chose to make it an exchange sacrifice since white is weak on the light squares due to the lack of a LSB} 26.Rd7 Bf6 27.Bxa7 Rc8 28.Bd4 Rb8 {JW: ? played because I missed the simple mate in 1. After the game I thought I should have played 28...Bg5+ 29.Be3 Nxe3 30.fxe3 Bxe3 31.Rxe3 Qg1+ but it turns out white has the not immediately obvious Kd2 in that position. So instead black should play Bc6 to regain all material and reach a probably drawn ending or try something like Bd8 if they want to (incorrectly) continue to try for a win.} 29.Bxf6 Rxb2?? {JW: This had been the intention on move 27, thinking this to be a must because I was preoccupied with the tactical shot 29...gxf6 30.Rxf7! unfortunately I missed the significantly more obvious mate in 1 until immediately after playing my move. Good game by white} 30.Rd8#
