34. Nh5 |
Black probably thought my knight was trapped, but if he takes, then I can still play Qh7 | |||||
| | ||||||
|
34... Nf5 |
Black blocks my strong diagonal. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
35. Nf6+ |
Black should've taken this knight earlier, because now my knight is posted on f7, where it cannot be disturbed and controls good squares in Black's camp. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
35... Kg7 36. h4 |
I am trying desperately for a swindling attempt. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
36... Nxh4 |
A terrible move. If Black doesn't take the pawn and just keeps the knight on f5, then I have no chance to win, and Black is up a piece. Black probably greedily took the pawn without a second thought, and is amazed that I haven't resigned yet. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
37. Qh3 |
Black is in big trouble, and may even be losing here, but his next move was a definite blunder, which hands me a winning position. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
37... Nf5 |
Black may have still had a chance, I'm not sure, but now I am totally winning, although I hadn't realized it yet. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
38. Qh7+ |
The h8-knight is doomed, and my crushing attack will eventually eat Black alive. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
38... Kf8 39. Qxh8+ Ke7 |
I hadn't realized my winning position yet, until I found the one magical move, which saved my game. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
40. Nxd5+ |
Nxd5!! wins and Black has no idea what hit him. His trouble started when he took my h-pawn. Now he must pay the price. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
40... exd5 |
Kd7 was the only other legal move, but Nb6 or Bxa4 win Black's queen. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
41. Qf6+ |
I'm down a piece again, but this time my attack is unstoppable. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
41... Ke8 |
Kf8 loses after 42. Bxf5 gxf5 43. Rh1!! unstoppably threatening Rh8 which either mates or wins the queen. But Ke8 is still losing. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
42. Bxa4+ |
Now I can't kill Black's only good defender with Bxf5, but I need to get Black's king back into danger, and it gave me a more brilliant win. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
42... Kf8 43. Rh1 |
Threatening Rh8# | |||||
| | ||||||
|
43... Ne7 |
The only way to stop mate is to attempt to block on g8. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
44. Rh7 |
Black resigned in this position, because he can't stop both my mating threats of Qxf7# and Qg7#. Although I wasn't pleased with myself blundering a piece, I love this game because it shows how I went from being down a piece in a hopelessly lost position, to fighting desperately for a brilliantly winning tactical attack, and it certainly must've made my opponent feel like crap to lose like this! | |||||
