1.e4 e6 {French defense, which I (black) often play. } 2.Nf3 d5 3.exd5 exd5 {
Not quite the exchange variaton, but pretty much like it. } 4.d4 Bd6 {Bishops 
gets space on both diagonals. } 5.Be2 Bd7 {At this point both of blacks bishops
are developed, but neither knight, which is unusual. Was this the right thing 
to do? } 6.Ne5 {What has moved knight twice in the opening. It is generally a 
bad idea to move the same piece in the opening. } 6...Be6 7.Bg4 Nf6 {At this 
point black has got 3 minor pieces developed, compared to whites two. } 8.Bg5 
Bxg4 {Relieves pressure around the black king.  Perhaps 0-0 would have been 
more sensible. } 9.Nxg4 h6 10.Qe2+ {10...Be7 would have been } 10...Qe7 {
10...Be7 looked more dangerous, it would would not have given the option of 
exchanging queens. } 11.Nxf6+ Kf8 {11..g7xf6 would have been a disaster after 
12.bxf6 attacking both queen and rook. } 12.Qxe7+ Bxe7 {What has two pieces 
under attack. } 13.Nd7+ {Obvoisouly will loose knight to 13...Nxd7, but I don't
think there is anything white could do. In any case, this levels the game. } 
13...Nxd7 14.Bxe7+ Kxe7 15.O-O Rhe8 16.Re1+ Kd6 17.Nd2 Re6 {17...Re6 will allow
18...Re8 and so put pressure on the e file. } 18.Nf3 Rae8 19.c3 g5 {Intention 
of 20...g4, so winning a rook after ...Rxe7 Rxe7 Rxe7# but white is not that 
stupid of couse. } 20.Kf1 Re4 {Not sure what that achieved, other than to waste
a move. } 21.Nd2 Rxe1+ {Blacks pawns and king are futher advanced, so this 
simplifying might lead to a better endgame for black. } 22.Rxe1 Rxe1+ 23.Kxe1 
Ke6 {Start to move the king forward. } 24.Ke2 Kf5 25.h3 h5 {In the absence of a
better idea, 25..h5 seems as sensible as any. } 26.g3 h4 27.Kf3 f6 28.g4+ {
Drives black king back. } 28...Ke6 29.Ke3 b6 30.f4 Nf8 31.fxg5 fxg5 32.Nf3 Nh7 
33.Ne5 c5 34.Nc6 cxd4+? {...a6 would have been a lot more sensible, as it would
have saved the panw on a7. } 35.Kxd4 a6? {Silly, as it allows 36.Nb4 which pawn
on a6 and d5. } 36.Nb4 Nf6 37.Nxa6 {At this point my chances look slim at best.
} 37...Ne4 38.Nc7+ Kd6 39.Nxd5 Nf2 40.Nxb6 Nxh3 41.a4 Nf4 42.a5 {Obvious black 
will get queen first, but white would follow one move later. } 42...h3 43.a6 h2
44.a7 h1=Q 45.a8=Q Qd1+ {I think 45...Qxa8 would have left black in an 
impossible situation after 46.Nxa8 with white having porns on both king and 
queen side. } 46.Kc4 Qe2+ 47.Kb3 Qb5+ 48.Ka2 Qxb6 {Piece now equal, but black 
has 3 pawns vs one knight. The pawns are more likely to be of use in the 
endgame. } 49.Qf8+ Ke5 50.Qf5+ Kd6 51.Qf6+ Ne6 52.Qf1 Qa5+ 53.Kb1 Ke7 54.Qh1 
Qe5 55.Qh7+ Kd6 56.Qa7 Qe1+ 57.Ka2 Qe5 58.Qa6+ Ke7 59.Qa3+ Kd7 60.Qa4+ Ke7 61.
Qb4+ Kd7 62.Qb7+ Kd6 63.Qb8+ Kd5 64.c4+ Ke4 65.Qxe5+ Kxe5 66.b4 Kf4 67.c5 Kxg4?
{Nd4 would have made more sence, as it would have stopped white advancing 
either port without loosing them.  I think that would have allowed black to get
his pawn home one move after what, rather than two. However, I don't think I 
could have worked that out in the game. } 68.c6 Kf3 69.b5 g4 70.b6 Nc5 71.c7 g3
72.c8=Q g2 73.Qf8+ Kg3 74.Qxc5 Kf3 75.Qf5+ Ke2 76.Qg4+ Kf1 77.Qxg2+ {Black 
resigns} 1-0
