Chess Game Analysis: Queens Gambit

This game illustrates opening principles of controlling the center and developing pieces purposefully. Tactically, white decoys black's knight, forks it with his knight, and invades on the 7th rank with his rook. Strategically, white exploits black's doubled pawns and drives his king away from queening squares. In the end, white advances a passed pawn and uses his rook to force black's king away from defending, winning a rook and the game.
