My 1st Colle-Zukertort game from the World Open 2008

[Zukertort_Player]

World Open 2008: Game 2
Franz Bisson (1400) White
David Worl (1542) Black
1. D4 (...1 E6 (It may have been better to play more flexibly with ...1 C5 and allowing the Queen-Bishop coming out for ideas such as pinning the King-Knight.)
2. Nf3 (This prevents openings such as the Budapest Gambit, and stays with the plan of preventing E5.)...2 D5 (trying to control the E4-square.)
3. E3 (With this pawn move, The Colle System is now initiated.)...3 C5
4. Bd3(The Colle System Bishop comes out! It also holds-back black’s control on the e4-square and the d3-h7 diagonal.)..4 Nf6 to develop the kingside pieces to come out, and continuing the e4 square.)
5. Nbd2 ? (5. B3!? was necessary as to prevent the cramping..5 C4!)..5 Nc6? (..5 C4! should be played as to cramp white and get an edge.)
6. A3?!(This severely weakens the light-colored squares.) ..6 C4!
7. Be2 ..7 B5
8. B3!? (This is the only idea that attempts to break the c4 problem) ..8 C3? (This is an over-extension of the advantage. Normal development would have been better.)
9. Nb1 (forced) ..9 B4?! (Now the light-colored advantage starts to dissipate)
10. AxB4! (Getting counter-play) ..10 Ne4?! (This wastes too much time and misguided! Better was Bxb4!)
11. Bb5!..11 Bd7
12. Bxc6 ..12 Bxc6
13. Ne5! ..13 Bd7
14. Qf3 (Threatening mate) ..14 Qf6 (forced and okay)
15. Qxf6 (It’s better to take the queen, then be left with doubled and isolated pawns)..15 Nxf6? (Losing time again! Better was GxF6)
16. Ba3 (Developing the Bishop on the most active square, and also holding-on to the B4-pawn)..16 Be7
17. F3! (Preventing any Knight move that would penetrate into white’s position) ..17 0-0
18. Nxc3 ..18 Rfc8
19. Kd2! White connects the rooks and preparing to focus his efforts on the queen-side) ..19 Rc7(preparing to double the rooks on the c-file)
20. Na4! (White will post the Knight on c5 and take a strangle-hold of the position)..20 Rb8?? (This loses the exchange. It was better to play Rac8)
21. Nc5! ..21 Bb5 (The bishop becomes a target of a pawn-storm attack. Black is losing, regardless)
22. C4! ..22 DxC4 (It’s hard to suggest a good move for black, but is surely not the immediate pawn exchange)
23. BxC4! (Now, white has a pawn-roller which is unstoppable!)..23 Be8 (Black is just lost here)
24. Na6! ..24 Rcb7
25. Nxb8 ..25 Rxb8
26. Rhb1! (Now, the plan comes to fruition!) ..26 A6 (hoping to hold-back white’s attack)
27. B5! (Anyway!) ..27 AxB5?? (An oversight which loses the bishop.) Black resigns!
1-0

For all Zukertort Players:
I have updated the analysis to a more to the point analysis.
If you would like to see Chessbase Analysis, then feel free to post a new thread in response to this.
I will also be including more analysis as per Fritz.

[Zukertort_Player]

To all Zukertort Players:
I have included my new analysis as per Chessbase example games.
I also have included my, and David Rudel's Analysis with it too.(It's mostly David Rudel's analysis.)
The purpose of this to have an "open source analysis", just like the precious metal which is always subject to refinement to become the gem of it's destiny.

You can say that David Rudel's passion for the opening has spread to me!
I am grateful for his work, just as anyone on this website who appreciates his work! (I finally have an opening that works for me!)
As usual, if you have any constructive criticism on how to make this document better, then feel to do so.
Please also feel free to refute or question the analysis.
