6. Nxe4 Bg4 7. h3 Bc8?! 7... Bxf3 8. Qxf3 Nd7 allows Black to develop all of his minor pieces.

1. d4 d5 2. c4 c6 The Slav Defense.
3. Nc3 Nf6 4. Nf3 4. e3 g6 5. Nf3 Bg7 is a more common move order to reach the game position.
4... g6 5. e3 This modest move transposes into the Schlechter Variation, a legitimate attempt to equalize for Black. I would have fought harder to actively develop my queen bishop.
5. Bf4 dxc4 6. e3 b5 7. a4
5. cxd5 cxd5 6. Bf4
5... Bg7 6. Bd3 Bg4 7. cxd5 cxd5 7... Bxf3 would have taken away White's trick.

9. Qb3 Bc6 10. Ne5 e6 10... Qb6!? 11. Qxb6 axb6
11. Bd2 11. Nxc6 bxc6 12. Qb7 wins a pawn.
