1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Nc3 Bc5 5. d3 O-O 6. Ng5 $2 {This attacking
move is simply pointless. There is no threat against h7 or f7. And White is
not well prepared for an attack with f4. White should proceed with developing
his pieces instead. "Do not move a piece twice in the opening" is the general
rule.} (6. O-O )(6. Bg5 )Na5 7. Bd5 $2 {Generally advancing the queen’s
pawn to d5 is a good plan for Black in so called open games (1.e4 e5). Here
White helps Black to realize it by provoking c6. The exchange on b3 is going
to happen anyway.} (7. Nxf7 Rxf7 8. Bxf7+ Kxf7 {is favourable for Black. The
material is about equal, but White lacks attacking ideas against the weakened
king’s position since he gave up his best attackers Bc4 and Ng5. On the other
hand, Black easily gets his additional minor pieces into play.} )c6 8. Bb3 Nxb3 9. cxb3 $2 {This looks pretty much like a beginner’s mistake. There is no
need to open the c-file since nothing is going to happen there.} (9. axb3 {
The general rule is that pawns should capture toward the center.} )h6 10. Nh3 $2 {Was he still dreaming of an attack starting with f4?} (10. Nf3 {
would limit the damage, although Black is clearly better here.} )d5  11. exd5 Bg4 12. f3 Bxh3 13. gxh3 {White’s pawn structure is
totally ruined.} Nxd5 14. Nxd5 Qxd5 {Material is still equal but White is
completely lost here. The black king is safe while there is no shelter for the
white one. Black’s pieces are actively placed (B, Q) and he can comfortably
finish his development by moving the rooks to the central files. White has not
developed a single piece yet (after move fourteen!) and it is hard to imagine
where the bishop should go? White has four pawn islands, Black only two. And
since most white pawns are on light squares, the dark squares a pretty weak.
The dark-squared black bishop is a monster.} 15. Bd2 (15. Qe2 Rfd8 16. Be3 Bxe3 17. Qxe3 Qxd3 18. Qxd3 (18. Qxe5 $4 Re8  )Rxd3 19. O-O Rd2 20. Rf2 Rad8 21. Raf1 Kf8 {This is the relatively best White can achieve but
it is still a very bad endgame.} )Qxd3 16. b4 Be7  17. Rg1 (17. Rc1 Bh4# )e4 $2 {From a today’s point of view it is
embarassing that a computer does not win the exchange in a position where it
is clearly the best option.} (17... Bh4+ 18. Rg3 {Only move!} )18. fxe4 $2 (18. Qe2 Bh4+ ({or} 18... Rad8 )19. Kf1 {Black still has a winning position but
White is not as bad as in the 17...Bh4+ line.} )Bh4+ 19. Rg3 Bxg3+ 20. hxg3 Qxg3+ 21. Ke2 Qxh3 ({Objectively better is} 21... Qg2+ 22. Kd3 (22. Ke3 $143 {simply looses the Bishop.} Rad8  23. Qe2 (23.

passed pawns. But here it weakens the king’s position. The obvious plan is
to get the rooks into play.} (22... Rfe8 )(22... Rae8  )23. Bc3  g6 (23... Qg4+ {Most humans would happily get the queens off the
board here. It is not the objectively best in this position but Black
"sacrifices" a small amount of his edge in order to eliminate White’s
counterplay completely. The resulting endgame is easily winning.} )24. Qf2 (24. Qd4 {[%csl Gg7] threatening mate immidiately.} f6 25. Rg1 Kh7  ({

ignores the threat of mate. Of couse, it is a kind of horizon effect. As far
as I understand Greenblatts account of his program it had a quiescence search
implemented (called ‘feedover’) but did not do it on simple checks. Then the
checks could have simply pushed the mate move out of the search tree.} 25. Qf6 {In contrast to 24. Qh4 Black’s f-pawn is blocked and can not inhibit the mate
on g7. Objectively the game is drawn now because Black has nothing better than
a perpetual check.} Qg4+ 26. Kd2 $2 {He hopes to hide his king on the queen’s
side and then mating if there is no check left. But this should not have
worked.} (26. Kf1 {He has to stay on the king’s side.} Qh3+ 27. Ke2 Qg2+ 28. Ke3 $11 )Rad8+ $2 {The wrong rook!} (26... Rfd8+ {[%csl Gf8] This
