1. g1f3  1... d7d5  2. e2e3  2... g8f6  3. c2c4  3... e7e6  4. b1c3  4... f8e7  5. b2b3  5... e8g8  6. g2g3 [%c_effect g3;square;g3;type;Inaccuracy;persistent;true] A little too creative. Black will exploit this move order and achieve an excellent position. 6... c7c5  7. f1g2  7... d5d4 [%c_effect d4;square;d4;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] Black gains space and forces the white knight off the center. 8. c3a4  8... b8c6  9. e3d4  9... c5d4  10. e1g1  10... e6e5 [%c_highlight a4;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;a4;persistent;false] Playing simple and natural moves, Ding finds himself in an excellent position out of the opening. The pawn structure is typical of the Benoni Defense (here with inverted colors), but the problem with White's position is the misplaced knight on a4. 11. d2d3  11... h7h6 This is a useful move, but probably not the most accurate. 12. a2a3  12... a7a5  13. f1e1  13... e7d6  14. h2h3 [%c_highlight g3;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;g3;persistent;false] The start of a risky plan involving the advance of the g-pawn. 14... c8f5 [%c_highlight h7;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;h7;persistent;false] The bishop feels even more comfortable in this square after h6 since it has a retreating route to h7. 15. g3g4 Probably realizing that the game is not going the desired way, Nakamura decides to complicate the position. 15... f5h7  16. g4g5  16... h6g5  17. c1g5 [%c_highlight a4;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;a4;persistent;false,f2;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;f2;persistent;false,h3;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;h3;persistent;false,g2;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;g2;persistent;false] The bishop is now activated, but considering the weaknesses on the kingside and the knight out of play on a4, it's clear that Black has the advantage. 17... f8e8  18. c4c5 [%c_effect c5;square;c5;type;Inaccuracy;persistent;true][%c_highlight d5;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;d5;persistent;false] This makes things a bit worse, as now Black's knight has access to the d5-square. 18... d6c7  19. a4b2 [%c_arrow b2c4;keyPressed;none;from;b2;opacity;0.8;to;c4;persistent;false] This is the idea: to finally activate the knight on c4. 19... d8d7 Preparing the crushing ...Nd5. 20. g5f6 A sad necessity. Now, the center is reinforced, and Black can use the g-file to attack White's king. 20... g7f6  21. f3h4 [%c_arrow d1h5;keyPressed;none;from;d1;opacity;0.8;to;h5;persistent;false] Opening the path for the queen. 21... f6f5  22. d1h5  22... g8g7 [%c_arrow h7g6;keyPressed;none;from;h7;opacity;0.8;to;g6;persistent;false] A change of plans: the king comes forward to support the move ...Bg6. 23. b2c4  23... h7g6 [%c_effect g6;square;g6;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] 24. h4g6 There's no sense in moving the queen since the best outcome for the poor knight is to capture the bishop. 24... f7g6  25. h5f3  25... a8d8  26. b3b4 Creating some counterplay, but again, the problem for White is that the most he can do is exchange pieces and fight for a draw. 26... a5b4  27. a3b4  27... c6b4  28. a1b1  28... b4a6 [%c_arrow a6c5;keyPressed;none;from;a6;opacity;0.8;to;c5;persistent;false] The knight attacks the c5-pawn, and White's situation becomes critical. 29. f3b7 [%c_effect b7;square;b7;type;Mistake;persistent;true][%c_highlight c5;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;c5;persistent;false,d3;keyPressed;none;opacity;0.8;square;d3;persistent;false,d4;keyPressed;alt;opacity;0.8;square;d4;persistent;false,e5;keyPressed;alt;opacity;0.8;square;e5;persistent;false] This leads to catastrophe as the pawns on c5 and d3 can now be captured, and Black's pawns start rolling. 29... a6c5  30. b7a7  30... c5d3  31. e1d1  31... e5e4 White's position is a tragedy. There are many winning moves for Black from now on. Ding plays safely and converts the advantage without problems. 32. a7a2  32... d3f4  33. b1b7  33... e8e7  34. a2a7
