White has a formidable centre and the doubled c-pawn is not a weakness as it provides open b& d files. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15... d6 16. Rab1 |
Utilising the open file and preventing Black bishop from developing | ||||
| | |||||
|
16... Rb8 17. Rb6 |
Blokade b-pawn and pinning d6 pawn | ||||
| | |||||
|
17... Rd8 18. Qd3 |
White has to protect c-pawn and f-pawn so the rook at f1 can move. Ideal square will be g3 which threatens Blacks king as well | ||||
| | |||||
|
18... Ra8 19. Qg3 a5 20. Rfb1 |
Again to prevent Black Bishop movement. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20... a4 21. a3 |
Blacks pawns are blocked and Black bishop has become a 'bad' one | ||||

21... Rb8 22. Ra6 |
...axb6(R) will lead to Rxb8(R), entry for the rook to 8th rank | ||||
| | |||||
|
22... Bd7 |
Black avoids it. But d6-pawn loses support from R at d8 | ||||
| | |||||
|
23. e5 |
take advantage of the pin at d6. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23... Qg6 |
Grab the d6 pawn after exchange at g6. If ....Qf5 then Bd3 | ||||
| | |||||
|
24. Qxg6 hxg6 25. Rxd6 Bc6 26. Rbd1 |
do not give up control of open file | ||||
| | |||||
|
26... Rde8 27. Kf2 |
Centralize the king as endgame is approaching | ||||
| | |||||
|
27... Re6 28. Bg4 Rxd6 29. Rxd6 |
echange is all the better for white | ||||
| | |||||
|
29... f5 |
Black did not expect en passent | ||||
| | |||||
|
30. exf6 e.p. gxf6 31. Rxf6 |
another pawn falls | ||||
| | |||||
|
31... Kg7 32. Re6 |
Laying trap if ...Bd7 then Re7 wins the bishop. If ....Rd8 then Ke3 | ||||
| | |||||
|
32... Re8 |
Black did not fall for the trap. But exchange will favor white as he is two pawns up | ||||

Interesting position!. If 35.Bd5 b4! 36.cxb4 cxb4 37.axb4 Bc6!! Bxc6 is a taboo. If 38Bxc6 a3! and the Black's a-pawn is unstoppable. White's Bishop can not stop a-pawn due to its own pawn at c4. If White avoids capture by Be6 Black will play Bd7. Any other move, black will simply push a-pawn | ||||

35. cxb5 |
So White captures the pawn. With 2 pawns up it is a sure win | ||||
