1.Nc3 {Notes by Eric Schiller. This opening is traditionally
known in America as the Dunst, but in Holland and most of
Europe it is the Van Geet, named for Dirk van Geet who has
played and promoted it most of his life. It is a somewhat
unorthodox opening but often transposes into such main lines
as the French, Caro Kann or Closed Sicilian. The development
of the knight at c3 is a normal move in and of itself. This
opening will be treated in greater depth in Unorthodox Chess
Openings, but the present game is a sample of the unique plan
with which van Geet is associated, and also contains a
reference to a very famous game attributed to Napeoleon.} d5
2.e4 {Now Black can switch to the French with 2...e6,
Caro-Kann with 2...c6, Alekhine via 2...Nf6, or Scandinavian
Defense with just about any other move. If Black advances to
d4, the position takes on a more original flavor, while the
capture at e4 still leaves a variety of transpositional
possibilities available.} d4 3.Nce2 e5 4.Ng3 { Looking at this
position we see the rationale behind White's play. Although
Black has occupied the dark squares in the center, this
formation can later be undermined by such moves as c3 and
f4. The knight has already been transferred to the kingside,
where it can take part in an attack, and White does have a
slight lead in development.} g6 {A logical reaction, which
enables the fianchetto of the dark-squared bishop and denies
access to f5 and h5 which might otherwise be useful to White.}
5.Bc4 Bg7 6.d3 c5 7.Nf3 Nc6 8.c3 { White establihes a little
tension in the center, though strictly speaking this is not a
the real point of the move. Instead, the idea is to be able to
deploy the queen at b3, creating a powerful battery with the
bishop, aiming at the vulnerable f7-square.} Nge7 9.Ng5 O-O
{Now White has a surprising attacking move.} 10.Nh5 {!} Bh8
{Black tries to preserve the bishop, but this leads to
disaster. 10...gxh5 11.Qxh5 h6 12.Nxf7 is obviously
unacceptable. 10...Na5 11.Nxg7 Nxc4! 12.dxc4 Kxg7 is
necessary.} 11.Qf3 Qe8 12.Nf6+ Bxf6 13.Qxf6 dxc3 {?} {This
loses by force. Again it was necessary to harrass the bishop
at c4 by ... Na5.} 14.Nxf7 Rxf7 15.Bh6 {and Black had no
defense.} 1-0
