1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6 5.Be2 Bg7 6.Be3 Nf6 7.0-0 White needs to defend his e pawn with Nc3, but he gets away with it. 7...0-0 8.Nc3 Nxd4 9.Bxd4 d6 10.Nd5 Once again, the white e pawn is neglected. 10...e5 11.Nxf6+ Qxf6 12.Bc3 Qg5? This drops the d pawn and leads to Black's downfall. Bd7 looks better. 13.Qxd6 Bh3 14.Bf3 Rfd8 15.Qc7 Rab8 16. Rfd1 keeps the pressure on Black. 16.Bb4 Be6 Black misses a chance to stay in the game. 16....Rdc8 was necessary. 17.Rad1 a6 18.b3 b6 Rdc8 for any of the last three moves would have given Black a fighting chance. White's next move ends the game. 19.Be7 Bf6 20.Rxd8+ Rxd8 21.Qxd8+ Kg7 22.Bxf6+ 22. Qf8 mates! 22...Qxf6 23.Qxf6+ Kxf6 24.Rd1 Kg5 25.Rd6 a5 26.Rxb6 in 50+ moves. Patrick mops up the queenside and notches his biggest tournament win..so far. 1-0
