The Goblin Variation} 4... Nxe5 5. d4 Ng6 6. Nc3 6... d6 $2 {The move 6...Bb4
was much better. Now Black's kings bishop is trapped within its own pawn
structure.} 7. f4 Qe7 8. Bd3 Bg4 9. Qc2 c5 10. d5 b6 11. O-O Bd7 12. Bd2 {
White has achieved full development and is now ready to conduct the attack.
Black's pieces are not well coordinated because of a lack of space on the
kingside.} 12... O-O-O 13. a3 {Black's plan is now clear. He will play b4 to
pry open the b file. If after b4 & bxc4, Black replies exc5, then White plays
a4 & a5 to weaken Black's pawn structure. Either the a file or the b file will
be forced open.} 13... Re8 14. b4 Qd8 15. bxc5 $2 {Better was dxc5.} 15... bxc5

Also playable was 20.Na4} 20... Qb6 21. Bc3 Qa6 22. Qd2 {This was a calculated
gamble. Black now has some counterplay, but nowWhite will have a strong attack
on Black's king.} 22... Nxe4 23. Bxe4 Rxe4 24. Bxa5 Rxc4 25. Nc7 Qa7 26. Rb8+

cannot prevent the mate & Black will run out of checks on the White king.} 30.
