In this game i was just hoping to give my opponent a good game, not too blunder as i so often do. Also to break up his pawn formation, plus to cause my opponent some headaches.

 
9. Bg5 d6 10. d4 h6 11. Bh4 g5 12. Bg3 Qe7 13. Qd3 Bg4 14. O-O-O Ba5 15. dxc5 Bxc3 16. Bxd6 Bxb2+ 17. Kxb2 Qb7+ 18. Kc1
I dont like this at all my King is exposed but his is stuck in the centre.

 
18... Rd8 19. h3 Be6 20. Qd4 Rg8
A mistake from my opponent better to move the knight which is under attack from my Queen !!

 
21. Qxf6
I sense a chance to attack his King a passage of play follows that leads to him attacking my King.

 
21... Bxa2 22. Qe5+ Kd7 23. Be7+ Kc8 24. Bxd8 Qb1+
Swift counter from mrt167, can he see it home.

 
25. Kd2 Rxd8+ 26. Nd4 Qb4+ 27. c3 Qb2+ 28. Kd3 Bb3 29. Rd2 Qa3 30. Ke3 a5 31. Rb1 a4 32. Nxc6 Rxd2 33. Rxb3
I decided to take his bishop as his rook is hanging.

 
33... Qxb3 34. Kxd2 Qb2+ 35. Kd3
I'm not too conerned about this pawn on the a-file as i believe it wont make it !! However mine on the c-(c5) file will.

 
35... a3 36. Ne7+ Kb7 37. c6+ Ka7 38. Qa5+ Kb8 39. c7+ Kb7 40. c8=Q#
Nice win enjoyed this game very much.
