notes by Scott Dalton
1. e4 d6 2. d4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7 4. Be3 Nd7 5. f4 e5 6. dxe5 dxe5 7. f5 Ngf6 8. g4 Nb6 9. Qxd8+ Kxd8 10. 0-0-0+ Bd7 11. h3 gxf5 12. exf5 h6 13. Bg2 c6 14. Nge2 Kc7 15. b3 Nbd5 16. Bf2 b6 17. Bg3 Rhe8 18. Rd3 Rad8 19. R1d1 Nxc3 20. Rxc3 Bf8 21. Ng1 Bb4 22. Re3 Bxf5! 23. gxf5?? (jet lag maybe?) Ba3+ 0-1
I probably had the worst of it, but after 22...Bxf5!, all the pieces come off and I may hold the opposite bishops ending a pawn down. For example 23...Rxd8 (instead of 23...gxf5) 24. Bxe5+ Kc8 25. Bxf6 Bd2+ 26. Kb2 Bxe3 27. Bxd8 Kxd8 28. gxf5 Bxg1 29. Bxc6
