Pudsey vs Alwoodley
2007


1. e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. d4 The Urusoff Gambit, which seems to be growing in popularity in LECL circles. 3... Nxe4 Currently my favourite response and almost certainly unsound. 4. dxe5 Qh4 5. Qf3 Ng5 6. Bxg5 Qxc4 7. Nc3 Bb4 8. Nge2 Nc6 9. O-O-O O-O (Now that we both know where the other lives, who will come knocking first?) 10. Qg3 Kh8 10... Re8 was probably a better way to prevent Bh6. 11. f4 d6 12. Rhf1 Bf5 13. Qh4?! Clearing a path fo the pawn roller but weakening support for c3. 13... Bxc3 14. Nxc3 Nb4 15. Rf2 Nxa2+ 16. Nxa2 Qxa2 17. g4 Be4 18. f5 Qa1+ More accurate would have been 18... dxe5 opening up the d file for the Black Rooks and cutting off the White King's escape route. 19. Kd2 Qxb2 20. f6 g6 21. Bh6 Rfd8 22. Bg7+ Kg8 23. Qh6 23. e6 is necessary. 23... dxe5+ 24. Ke1 Rxd1+ 25. Kxd1 Rd8+ 26. Ke1 Qb1+ Resigns 0-1 [Frank]
