1. e4 – {In the unlikely event of chess actually being ‘solved’, I am nearly certain that this will be the opening move in a perfect game of chess.}
1. … e5 – {My preferred response to e4.}
2. Nf3 – {The best move with the possible exception of f4 in this position.}
2. … Nc6 – {No surprise. Black replies to the white development log ...[text shortened]... If you have any questions or comments please post them, I’m really interested in this opening.
Oh yeah...good job.

But, since you're a total patzer you can simply open Fritz and paste the original moves, then double click each move in the annotation list and type in your annotations, very simple. If you don't have Fritz get something like chess notepad.

Bxf2+ 6. Kf1 Qe7 7. Nxh8 d5 8. Qf3?! {I've never seen this before but it
looks interesting anyways. Probably not correct.} dxc4 9. Qxf2 Nxe4 10. Qe3
Qf8+ 11. Qf3 Nf6 12. d3 Nd4 13. Qf2 cxd3 14. cxd3 Bf5 15. Qd2 Bxd3+ 16. Qxd3
Ne4+ 17. Ke1 Qf2+ 18. Kd1 Qxg2 19. Rf1 O-O-O! { The game could have been
drawn by black at any time. Very smart to play on while still holding the
draw if he wants it.} 20. Nf7 {Interestingly enough,
black seems to have played perfectly here. More proof that a single blunder
as white can lose the game and even with perfect play black can draw. My
conclusion - The Traxler is sound, in fact, best. 0}) 20... Nc5 21. Qc4 b5 0-1
Nice game.
