This game is a crush from move 8 on. White wins a piece early and black continues to leave pieces unprotected. White grabs each piece in the most resourceful manner.

1.d4 d5 2.c4 dxc4 3.e3 e6 This pawn move limits black to playing lines where he will fianchetto the queen's bishop. 4.Bxc4 Bb4+ 5.Bd2 Bd6 Black has wasted a tempo by moving the same piece twice in the opening. Developing the knight to f6 would keep the options open. 6.Nf3 Nc6 From a strategic point of view, Black needs to arrange the move . c7-c5 to challenge White in the center, and therefore, this move blocking the c-pawn is not correct. 7.d5 This is a premature pawn break. White should continue developing pieces. 7...Na5?

This move simply loses a piece. Better was 7...exd5 8.Bxd5 Nge7 as Black's queen side bishop is no longer cramped and he develops a knight with a tempo by attacking white's bishop on d5. 8.Qa4+ c6 9.Qxa5 White wins a piece and offers to trade queens. 9...Nh6 10.Qxd8+ Kxd8 11.Nc3 Capturing on c6 would avoid losing a pawn. [11.dxc6 bxc6 12.Nc3] 11...exd5 12.Bd3 c5 13.b3 d4 14.exd4 cxd4 15.Nxd4 Ng4 16.Ne4 Nxh2 17.Nxd6 White grabs another piece. 17...Bg4 18.Nxf7+

19.f3 White tries to relieve the cramped formation on the kingside, but it was better to leave that section of the board closed. 19...Nf8 20.Nd2? This allows black to win the e pawn. 20...Ng6 [20...exf3 21.Nxf3 Ng4 22.Ne5 Nxe5 23.dxe5 Qxe5 wins pawn back for black.] 21.Bc4 f4 closing the kingside and continuing with queenside operations is better. 21...Qe6 22.Qc2 White slips a little trying to figure out how to deal with the tension in the center of the board. Now exf3 would equalize for Black. 22...Re7 23.Bxd5 Qxd5 Capturing with knight to threaten a double attack e3 would be met by the calm 24 Rae1. 24.fxe4 Nxe4 25.Nxe4 White trades in center to release tension. 25...Rxe4.
