Good, high quality game, and well annotated, too. Black made only one real mistake (after that he was trying for tricks, which, in hopeless situations, is fair enough). His decision at move 22 is hard to call a mistake, exactly, though it did lead to his own attack disappearing and Black's gaining the initiative and the advantage. The better 22.Ba4 is very hard to recognise (in my view) as being the better move. It all stemmed from Black's brave decision to give up his long-diagonal for a knight, on d4. Well played.
