Southend League October 1999

   Here is a game from Alan where he beats a 167 in a maelstrom of tactics. Keep a look out for his black squared bishop, it watches the fight on b6 and then springs into action when the dust settles.
1. e4 c5 2. Nc3 d6 3. Nge2 e6 4. d4 cxd4 5. Nxd4  
   White goes sensible just in time to leave his opponent with a normal position but an abnormal time differential.
a6 6. Be2 Nc6 7. Be3 Nxd4 8. Qxd4 Ne7 9. f4 Nc6 10. Qb6 Qxb6 11. Bxb6 Bd7 12. O-O-O Rc8 13. Rhe1 Be7 14. Bf3 O-O  
 

15. Nd5!
   Lighting the fireworks. The Bishop on b6 watches and whistles. He knows he's going to put the boot in ... later!
exd5 16. exd5 Nb4 17. Rxe7 Rxc2+ 18. Kb1 Bf5 19. Be4 Re2 20. Bxf5 Rxe7 21. a3 Re2 22. axb4 Rfe8 23. Bc7 Rxg2 24. Bxd6 g6 25. Be5 gxf5 26. d6
   And the pawn goes though.
