{Had it not been for the car accident in upstate New York, Evans would have
served as an alternate, playing only a few games. But now, hew got to play in
10 rounds, and set a torrid pace, winning eight and drawing two. His play was
clean throughout. This game in particular features a highly instructive
minority attack in the Queen's Gambit Declined. Marvel at how well this future
Grandmaster played at just 19 years of age.} 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 d5 {
A transposition to the Queen's Gambit Declined.} 4. Bg5 Nbd7 5. e3 {Having
developed his bad bishop outside the pawn structure.} ({Effortlessly avoiding
the kids' trap:} 5. cxd5 exd5 6. Nxd5 Nxd5 7. Bxd8 Bb4+ {regaining the queen
with interest.}) 5... Be7 {Black aims to follow "Lasker's dictim," to aim to
achieve two minor piece exchanges in the Queen's Gambit Declined.} 6. Qc2 O-O {
Waiting for White to develop the light-squared bishop before capturing on c4.}
7. cxd5 {An obvious solution to the problem, capturing on d5 before develping
the Bf1.} exd5 8. Nf3 c6 {Solid defense of the center.} 9. Bd3 {White will
develop with two aims, to prepare e4, or else to press forward with the
moniority attack, the rapid advance of the b-pawn to b5.} Re8 10. O-O Nf8 {
Defending h7 with an unassailable knight, and making ready for two minor piece
exchanges with ...Ne4.} 11. Rab1 {Evan's first rook move is fully accurate,
preparing a minority attack with b4-b5. The other rook will most likely
develop to c1.} Ne4 {In these Queen's Gambit position, Black often attempts to
dull White's attacking chances by exchanging off two sets of minor pieces, but
White gains something too. White parts with his relatively bad, dark-squared
bishop in exchange for Black's good bishop.} 12. Bxe7 Qxe7 13. b4 {Setting the
pawn in motion with the idea of b4-b5. The result will either be an isolated
d5-pawn or a backward c6-pawn.} a6 {Logical, aiming to slow down the minority
attack. Now when White presses forward with a4 and b5, Black will gain an open
file for the Ra8.} 14. a4 {The novelty, logically supporting b5.} ({At the top
of his game, Evans was likely aware of Kottnauer, C - Shapira, L Szczawno
Zdroj 1950 which had recently tried to exploit ...a6 with Na4 eyeing both b6
and c5.} 14. Na4 Bg4 15. Ne5 Bh5 16. Bxe4 dxe4 17. Nc5 f6 18. Nc4 Bf7 19. a4

Rbd8 26. Nb4 Nh4 27. N4xd5 cxd5 28. Qc7 Qg6 29. Qg3 Qh5 30. Rc5 Nf5 31. Qf4 {
1/2-1/2 (49)}) 14... Nxc3 {Successfully obtaining the second minor piece
exchange, but equality is tough to obtain in structural positions in which one
side can rather effortlessly make progress.} 15. Qxc3 Bg4 {With the obvious
threat of ...Bxf3, an effort to compromise White's kingside structure.} 16. Nd2
{The knight heads towards c5.} ({On} 16. Ne5 {Black will retreat the bishop}
Bh5 {and then seek exchanges with ...Ng6.}) 16... Qg5 {Black cannot adequately
defend against the imminent minority attack and so, he builds a kingside
attack.} 17. Rfc1 {Calm and accurate play from the young American and, once
again, the correct posting of a rook.} ({Premature is} 17. f4 Qh5 18. e4 dxe4
19. Nxe4 Qd5 $11) 17... Re6 {[#] A typical idea for the defense. In many lines,
Black will be saddled with a backward c-pawn. The rook performs double duty,
helping to defend the weak pawn while commencing aggressive attacking lines on
the kingside with a rook swing to f6, g6 or h6.} 18. b5 {A nice illustration
of the minority attack in action. As a result of ...a6, Black will gain an
open file for the queen's rook, but White achieves everything he might want.
All responses by Black will permanently weaken the queenside pawn structure.}
axb5 19. axb5 Bh3 {The obvious threat on g2 forces a weaknening of White's
structure, but Evans is confident that his pressure will break through first.}
20. g3 ({Not} 20. Bf1 $2 Bxg2 21. Bxg2 Rg6 $19) 20... Rae8 {Recognizing the
hopelessness of the queenside pawns, Black pursues counterplay in the center
and on the kingside.} 21. bxc6 bxc6 22. Bf1 {With the damage done on the
queenside, and knowing that endgame will be favorable, Evans is willing to
exchange off his good light-squared bishop.} Bxf1 23. Nxf1 {Black's majors
will not now be able to break through on the kingside.} Ng6 {The knight must
head to e7 to defend the backward c-pawn.} 24. Rb6 Ne7 {Just in time to defend
the backward c-pawn.} 25. Qb4 {Aiming for Rb8. All piece exchanges now favor
White.} h5 26. Rb8 Rxb8 27. Qxb8+ Kh7 28. Qf4 Qxf4 29. gxf4 {The pawn
structure is now set. To win, White will need to activate all of his pieces.
For the moment, c5 is the correct interim destination for the knight. The rook
takes aim on c7, and even the king is dreaming about reaching b6..} g6 30. Nd2
Rd6 31. Kf1 Kg7 32. Ra1 Rd7 33. Nb3 Rb7 34. Nc5 {Fixing the c6-pawn and
occupying a key outpost.} Rb2 {Normally, the seventh rank would be an
aggressive posting, but there are no meaningful weaknesses to attack there.
Instead, the rook at least makes sure that White cannot activate his king.} 35.
Ra7 {In time trouble and needing to reach move 40, Evans bides his time,
attempting to do no harm to his structural chances.} Kf6 36. Ra6 Rb1+ 37. Kg2
Rb2 38. Ra7 {Repeating the position, obviously waiting for the time control}
Rb1 39. Rc7 Ra1 40. Nd3 Ke6 41. Nc5+ {Probably the sealed move, not causing
any permanent damage.} Kf6 42. Nd7+ {With much more time, Evans seeks optimal
postings for the knight and the rook.} Ke6 43. Nf8+ Kf6 44. Nh7+ Ke6 45. Ng5+
Kd6 {Inaccurate and, given Evans relentless play, probably the losing move.} ({
More solid is} 45... Kf6 {when the knight will probably take its post on e5.})
46. Rb7 {Forcing Black to move the f-pawn, in turn weakening g6.} f6 47. Nh7
Ke6 48. Nf8+ Kf7 {[#]} ({Deftly avoiding} 48... Kd6 49. Rd7#) 49. Nxg6 Kxg6 50.

on.} Kf5 51. Rc7 Rc1 52. Rc8 Kg6 53. Kg3 Rc2 54. h4 Kf5 55. Rh8 Kg6 56. f5+ {
Ridding himself of the doubled pawn and obtaining an outside passer in
exchange.} Kxf5 57. Rxh5+ Kg6 58. Rh8 Kf5 59. Rg8 {An important move, now
making sure that Black's king cannot prevent the advance of the passed h-pawn.}
Rc1 {And som, the rook tries to head to h1.} 60. Kg2 {The technique is
impressive but quite simple, here preventing the black rook from getting
behind the pawn.} Ra1 {Seeking a different path to the pawn.} 61. h5 Ra7 62.
Rg3 ({Evans rejects} 62. Kf3 Rh7 63. Rc8 Rxh5 64. Rxc6 {when, without an
obvious passer and with the active black king, a win is unlikely.}) 62... Rh7
63. Rh3 {The point, getting behind the passed pawn. Evans has fully calculated
the king and pawn endings that result from the capture of white's h-pawn.} Kg5
