19... Re7 |
Preparing to double against the weakness on e2. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20. g4 |
Accepting some kingside weakness as the dark-squared bishop wont be able to participate in any attack. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20... Bg6 21. Nh4 Rae8 22. Nxg6 hxg6 23. Kf1 |
23. Bf1 b5! looks strong for Black. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23... g5 |
Black stops any ideas of kingside pawn expansion. Once again, activity is the name of the game. Black is doing a damn good job of keeping me bottled up. | ||||
| | |||||
|
24. Qa4 |
Hoping that Black will choose 24...Ne5, temporarily blocking his pressure down the e-file, so I can take a moment to untangle. | ||||
| | |||||
|
24... Ne5 25. Rd1 |
The first step, break that annoying pin. | ||||
| | |||||
|
25... Bc3 26. Ne4 |
Step two, exchange off a set of pieces to make some breathing room. | ||||
| | |||||
|
26... Nxe4 27. Bxe4 Qh6 28. Kg2 |
Step three, prepare to transfer the rook to either f1 or h1 and get that counterplay rolling!!! | ||||
| | |||||
|
28... Qf6 29. Rf1 Ng6 |
Not sure about this plan, however, I really don't see a way for Black to break through. This will get rid of the bishop pair after the obligatory Bxf4, however, my pieces are getting active, while that dark-squared bishop looks offsides. | ||||
| | |||||
|
30. Qc6 |
Here the queen trade is good for White after 31. Bxc6 Rc8 32. Be4, with f4 and White is attacking! | ||||
| | |||||
|
30... Nf4+ 31. Bxf4 Qxf4 32. Qd5 |
Tactically preventing g6. | ||||
| | |||||
|
32... g6 |
Not sure if he missed the obvious tactic, as it seems now I am really breaking out. | ||||
| | |||||
|
33. e3 dxe3 34. fxe3 Qxe3 35. Bxg6 Rf8 36. Be4 |
My iron grip on the light-squares means Black's attack is at an end. | ||||
| | |||||
|
36... Be5 |
Not only guarding the g5-pawn, but threatening mate! | ||||
| | |||||
|
37. Rf3 Qd2+ 38. Rf2 Qc3 |
Overestimating his chances, Black had the opportunity for a three-fold repetition with 38...Qe3. | ||||
| | |||||
|
39. a4 Kg7 40. Rh1 |
Preparing play down the h-file. | ||||
| | |||||
|
40... Qd4 |
40...Rh8 moght have been stronger. | ||||
| | |||||
|
41. Qxd4 Bxd4 42. Rf5 |
Now White is better. | ||||
| | |||||
|
42... Re5 43. Rxe5 Bxe5 44. h4 gxh4 45. Rxh4 Re8 46. Rh7+ Kf8 47. Kf3 Re6 48. g5 |
The Black rook is locked out. and the White king has an invasion route on the light-squares. Unfortunately, this is where Black timed out, just when the endgame was looking interesting. | ||||
