1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nd2 Nf6 4.e5 Nfd7 5.f4 c5 6.c3 Nc6 7.Ndf3 Qb6 8.g3 cxd4 9.cxd4 f6 10.Bd3!?
[ 10.Bh3 is a more popular. Of course the discovered check at g6 indirectly defends White's d-pawn]

10...g5! 11.h3! Be7 12.Ne2 0-0 13.exf6 Nxf6 14.Nxg5 Bb4+ 15.Bd2 Nxd4 16.Nxd4 Qxd4 17.Bxb4 Qxb4+ 18.Qd2 Qb6
[ Black would probably draw after 18...Qxd2+ so is trying to win!]

19.0-0-0! Bd7 20.Kb1 Rac8 21.Rhe1 Rc6 22.Re5 Be8?
This costs tempo [ 22...h6 trying to dislodge the knight was the alternative. White could then give serious consideration to the piece offer by replying 23.h4 with complications]

23.Rde1 Bf7 24.Nxf7! Rxf7 25.f5 exf5 26.Qg5+ Rg7 27.Re8+!
Mate in 3 follows 1-0
