Nc3 dxe4 {But this was a real surprise. I think that David played this move for the first time.} 4. Nxe4 Nd7 5. Nf3 Ngf6 6. Nxf6+ Nxf6 7. Be3 {After some thinking I decided to play this line.} Nd5 8. Bd2 c5 9. Bb5+ Bd7 10. Bxd7+ Qxd7 11. c4 Nb6 12. Rc1 {There were not so many games in this line, so I am sure that there is room for improvements.} Be7 13. dxc5 Bxc5 14. b4 Be7 15. c5 Nd5 16. Ne5 Qc7 17. Qa4+ Kf8 18. Nd3 {A novelty. I did not really analyse this move, but I thought that with the king on f8 White will always have chances for an advantage.} a6 19. O-O (19. b5 {was perhaps more energetic, but I wanted to finish my development first.}) 19... Rd8 {Here I was thinking a lot and decided to promote my pawns.} 20. Qb3 h5 {Typical. Black wants to develop his rook via h5.} 21. a4 h4 22. h3 Rh5 23. b5 {Till here Black was playing well, but now David decided to fix a draw by calculating lines, but this was a mistake, and he should have just play 23...axb5.} Bg5 $2 ({During the game I did not see anything for White after} 23... axb5 24. axb5 Nf6 {with the idea Rhd5 and if} 25. Be3 {then} Nd5 { .}) 24. b6 $1 {Now Black is in trouble.} Qb8 25. Bxg5 Rxg5 26. c6 {White does not allow Ne7.} bxc6 27. Rc5 $1 {The only move and the most difficult move in the game!} ({First I was planning to play} 27. a5 {but I was in time to find} Ne3 $3 28. fxe3 Rxg2+ 29. Kxg2 Qg3+ $11) 27... e5 (27... Rg6 28. Rb1 $16) 28. a5 $16 {Now White has a very strong passed pawn on b6, and if Black does not create anything, White is strategically winning.} Qd6 29. Rfc1 (29. Qc4 {was also very strong.}) 29... Ne7 (29... e4 30. Rxc6 Qd7 31. Ne1 $16) 30. Ne1 {I wanted my knight to defend the king.} Rf5 31. Qc4 Rf4 32. Qxa6 Rxf2 {The last chance, but the position was already lost!} 33. Qd3 $1 {Precise!} ({It would be a mistake to play} 33. Kxf2 $2 Qd4+ 34. Kf1 Nf5 35. R5c3 Ng3+ 36. Rxg3 hxg3 37. Rc2 Qf4+ 38. Nf3 e4 39. Qe2 exf3 40. gxf3 g2+ 41. Kxg2 Qg5+ 42. Kh2 Qxa5 { and Black is still in the game!}) 33... Qxd3 34. Nxd3 Ra2 35. Nxe5 (35. Rb1 $18 {was easily winning, but I had calculated the variation in the game and decided to play it.}) 35... Rdd2 36. R5c2 Rdxc2 37. Rxc2 Rxc2 38. b7 Rb2 39. Nd7+ Ke8 40. Nb6 {Black resigned!} 1-0
