scoresheet. If White's extra pawn is the one on d3, it's obviously useless,
but he should be able to do something eventually with f4 and g4.  So, later I
liked that you got your pawn back and I liked how you drove away the White
Knight by playing ... c7-c6. I don't suppose either of us enjoyed the Knight
fork that White won the Exchange with...} 1-0

1. e4 e6 2. Nc3 (2. d4 d5 3. exd5 exd5 4. c4 {
makes sure Black can't stodge it up. Ask me about how to play IQP positions.})
2... Nf6 3. Nf3 d5 4. e5 Nfd7 5. d4 c5 6. Bb5 {In these French positions, you
have a bad Bishop (blocked by your pawns) and a good one, and that's you good
one  Black is hitting at d4, and might also hit at e5, so you can choose
earlier on to support these points by c2-c3 and f2-f4.  Generally, because of
these weak points, endgames in the French are quite good for Black, so attack
in the middlegame.  You have more space on the King's-side, so that's the side
you will find easiest to attack.  Black, as in the game, will usually try to
attack on the Queen's-side.} (6. dxc5 Nc6 7. Bf4 Bxc5 8. Bd3 8... f6 $1 (8...

pawn centre has disappeared, but you have control over e5, and that stops
Black developing the Bc8 as he would wish.}) 6... a6 7. Bxd7+ Nxd7 8. O-O b5 9.

Board 4. This was over so fast I didn't really have time to see what happened. But that probably means that someone was playing a bit too quickly, and not too carefully.
