Van der Heiden - Chess Challenger Voice, Amsterdam 1980
1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 d5 3.cxd5 Nxd5 4.Nf3 e6 5.e4 Nf6 6.Nc3 Bb4 7.Bd3 O-O 8.e5 Nd5
9.Bxh7+ Kxh7 10.Ng5+ Kg6 11.h4 Nxc3 12.bxc3 Bxc3+ 13.Kf1 Bxa1 14.h5+ Kh6 15.Qg4
Qxd4 16.Nxe6+ g5 17.hxg6 mate.
The double-checking pieces Rh1 and Bc1 remain in their places, but note how the
clearance of the g-file also plays its part - without Qg4 covering g6, it
wouldn't be mate. In fact, Van der Heiden didn't really play but composed this
game, just to hear his newly acquired Voice speak its longest possible sentence:
"Pawn takes pawn en passant check and mate I lose."
