1. e4 e5 2. d4 exd4 3. Qd1xd4 Nb8c6 4. Qd4e3 g6
!? The usual move is 4...Nf6. 4...g6 is playable here as White's queen on e3 Q/e3 hinders the activity of White's dark-squared bishop B/c1 on the weakened dark squares of Black's kingside.
5. Nb1c3 Bf8g7 6. Nc3d5
?! Better is 6 Bd2 or 6 Nf3, continuing the development.
6... Nc6d4
!? Black is bluffing. Better was 6...Nge7. Better was also 6...d6, played in the simultaneous exhibition game Fischer - Blackburne, in 1885.
7. Qe3d2
?! White makes developing the bishop B/c1 even harder. Better was 7 Bd3, defending the pawn P/c2 and developing one's bishop.
7... c6 8. Nd5e3
Not 8 c3? cxd5 9 cxd4 dxe4.
8... Ng8e7
Stockfish recommends 8...Ne6 9 Bd3 Nf6 10 e5 Nh5 11 Nf3 d6.
9. b3
?? Better was 9 c3 Ne6 10 Qd6 =.
9... Nd4xb3 10. axb3
10 cxb3 Bxa1 11 Bb2 Bxb2 12 Qxb2 f6! and Black wins.
10... Bg7xa1 11. c3 d5
! Black defends against possible Ne3-g4-h6+, develops and attacks White's central pawn P/e4.
12. Ne3c2
? Miscalculation. Better was 12 Ne2. Not 12 Qa2?? Bxc3. 12 Qd4 0-0! with the idea 13 Ng4? Bxg4 15 Bh6 f6 16 Bxf8 Qxf8.
12... Qd8a5
! White is lost.
13. Nc2xa1
? Better was 13 Ne2. Not 13 Qd4? Bxc3+. After 13 b4 Qa4 14 Qd4 Rf8 Black still wins.
13... Qa5xa1
Black is winning.
