I start Coulsdon with a win

Well, I didn't expect to win this afternoon's game this quickly:

M.White (2274) - J.Rudd (2332), Coulsdon 2007
1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.e5 c5 4.c3 Nc6 5.Nf3 Qb6 6.a3 a5 7.Bd3 Bd7 8.0-0 Nh6 9.Kh1 Rc8 10.dxc5 Bxc5 11.Qe2 Ng4 12.Kg1 Qc7 13.b4 Ba7 14.Nd4 Ncxe5 15.Nb5 Nf3+ 0-1

15.Nb5?? is obviously a blunder, but black may have the advantage anyway by that point. We looked at 15.Bf4 g5 16.Nb5 Bxb5 17.Bxb5+ Kf8 18.Bg3 h5 19.h3 h4 20.Qxg4 hxg3 21.Qxg3 g4 after the game, and came to the conclusion that black's attack would be hard to defend against.
