[Annotations by Charlie Linford]

1.d4 d6 2.Nf3 Bg4 3.e4 Nf6 4.Nc3 Nc6 5.Be2 e6 This opening is typical of the Hastings player Robin Moss - nothing too theoretical unless he is in the mood. This generally produces some good chess, but here both sides are too cagey to make anything of it. 6.h3 Bh5 7.0-0 Be7 8.d5 exd5 9.exd5 Bxf3 10.Bxf3 Ne5 11.Be2 0-0 12.Be3 a6 13.a4 Nfd7 14.Qd2 Ng6 15.b3 Bf6 16.Rae1 Re8 17.Bd4 Bxd4 18.Qxd4 Qf6 19.Qxf6 Nxf6 20.f4 Re3 21.Nd1 Re7 22.f5 Nf8 I don't see any reason not to step into the middle with 22...Ne5, but admittedly the knight is not doing much wherever it goes. 23.Bf3 Rae8 24.Kf2 Rxe1 25.Rxe1 Rxe1 26.Kxe1 Anyone care to put money on the result now? 26...N8d7 27.Kf2 a5 28.Nc3 Nc5 29.Ke3 g5 30.fxg6 fxg6 31.Kd4 b6 32.Nb5 Ne8 33.Bg4 1/2-1/2
