22th World Youth Chess Championship (Under-12); Antalya, November 21, 2007
Spanish Game C77

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 Nf6 5. d3. In the footsteps of Adolf Anderssen and Wilhelm Steinitz... 5. ... b5 6. Bb3 Bc5 7. c3 0-0. The critical alternative is 7. ... d5 8. exd5 (8. Qe2 0-0 9. Bg5 dxe4 10. dxe4 Qe7 11. Nbd2 Rb8 12. Nf1 h6 13. Bh4 Na5 14. Bc2 b4 15. a3 b3 16. Bd3 Rb6 17. h3 Rd8 18. g4 Rbd6 19. Rd1 Nc4 20. Nd4 exd4 21. Bxc4 dxc3 22. Rxd6 Qxd6 23. bxc3 b2 24. Ba2 Nxe4 25. Bg3 Qe6 26. Bb1 Nxc3 27. Qxe6 Rd1 mate, Mason – Pollock, New York 1889) 8. ... Nxd5 9. Qe2 0-0 10. Qe4 Be6 11. Nxe5 Nxe5 12. Qxe5 Nb4 13. 0-0 Nxd3 14. Qh5 Bxb3 15. axb3 Re8 16. Nd2 Qe7 17. b4 Bxf2+ 18. Kh1 Qe1 19. h3 Nxc1 20. Rxe1 Rxe1+ 21. Kh2 Bg1+ 22. Kg3 Re3+ 23. Kg4 Ne2 24. Nf1 g6 25. Qd5 h5+ 26. Kg5 Kg7 27. Nxe3 f6+ 28. Kh4 Bf2+ 29. g3 Bxg3 matto, Weiss – Pollock, New York 1889. 8. Nbd2 d6 9. Nf1 Be6. Or 9. ... h6 10. Ng3 Ne7 11. 0-0 Ng6 12. d4 Bb6 13. Be3 Rb8 14. Qc2 c5 with roughly even chances, Burn – Baird, New York 1889. 10. Ng3 Qd7 11. 0-0 Bb6 12. Nh4 g6 13. Bg5 Bxb3


14. Qf3!? The charm of the zwischenzug! In any case, both 14. axb3 Be6 and 14. Qxb3 Be6 would lead nowhere. 14. ... Be6 15. Qxf6. Clearly not 15. Bxf6?? on account of 15. ... Bg4 and the Queen is trapped. Now, however, Black commits “suicide by hallucination”: 15. ... Bg4?? 1 : 0. And Black resigned at the same time, because of 16. Bh6 with unavoidable mate. It appears to us that Black can put up a tough resistance by 15. ... Qd8! (and if 16. Qxe6 then 16. ... Qxg5).
