The Black pieces in this game were under the direction of David Raines of Seward, Nebraska.
1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 d5 4. Nf3 Nbd7 5. cxd5 exd5 6. Bf4 c6 7. e3 Be7 8. Bd3 O-O 9. Qc2 Re8 10. h3 Nf8 11. O-O-O
    Position after 11. O-O-O. This position is more favorable to White than the main lines of the QGD Exchange Variation. Because of his substantial lead in piece activity, he can launch a kingside pawn-storm with little to fear from a response in kind on the opposite wing.
b5
    This intuitive move is nevertheless much too slow.
12. g4 a5 13. Ne5 Bb7
    Position after 13...Bb7.
14. h4
    White remains better after this routine move, but it is slow.
a4 15. h5 Qa5 16. g5 b4?!
   Black offers a piece.
17. gxf6 Bxf6
    # Position after 17...Bxf6.
18. Ng4
   I decided not to accept the piece but instead pursue my kingside attack directly.
bxc3 19. Rdg1 Kh8 20. h6 Qb4 21. hxg7+ Bxg7 22. bxc3 Qa3+ 23. Kd1 Re4 24. Bxe4 dxe4
    Position after 24...dxe4.
25. Nh6 Bxh6 26. Be5+ Bg7 27. Rxg7
   Not a very good game by either player, but one nevertheless illustrative of White's chances in this variation.
1-0

   My opponent was Dave Marples of Durham, North Carolina.
1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 d5 4. Nf3 Be7 5. Qc2 Nbd7 6. cxd5 exd5 7. Bf4 c6 8. e3 O-O 9. Bd3 Re8 10. O-O-O Nf8 11. h3 Bd6
   Black seeks simplification at the expense of a tempo. Other moves, see Morss-Raines.
12. Bxd6
    This is the move usually played, gaining time.
Qxd6 13. g4
    # Position after 13. g4.
Qe7 14. Rdg1 g6
    This move is not obviously necessary.
15. Kb1
    Position after 15. Kb1. Notwithstanding the exchange of light-square bishops, Black is under great pressure. White has an obvious plan in Ne5 and the continued advance of his kingside pawns.
Bd7 16. Ne5 Rad8 17. h4 Bc8 18. f4 Ne4 19. Bxe4 dxe4 20. f5 f6 21. Nc4 gxf5 22. gxf5+ Kh8 23. Qg2 Nd7 24. Nd6 Rg8 25. Nxc8 Rxc8 26. Qxe4 Rce8 27. Rxg8+ Kxg8 28. Rg1+ Kh8 29. Qg2 Nb6 30. e4 Nc8
    # Position after 30...Nc8.
31. e5 fxe5 32. Ne4 Qf7 33. f6 Rg8? 34. Qxg8+ Qxg8 35. Rxg8+ Kxg8 36. dxe5 Nb6 37. e6
    Black can't prevent White from promoting a pawn
