12... Nxe5
So this is a bit planned. I can be foiled if white captures my Knight in an exchange

 
13. f3
BUt white does not, instead, white gives me an opening.

 
13... Nc4
this is interesting, now white has to make a small decision - a knight for a queen, I think not...

 
14. Qb3
not really a ah rd choice, but the solution white selects plays white into a fork

 
14... Ned2
A double knight attack is a bit formidable

 
15. Qb4
again white chooses the queen

 
15... Nxf1
bye bye castle

 
16. Bxf1
bye bye night.

 
16... Bf8
with a 2 point advantage, I can now tackle the queen

 
17. Nc5
so this is a good situation for me because the knight is pinned.

 
17... b6
bye bye knight right?

 
18. Qc3
yep..bye bye knight

 
18... bxc5
now taking this knight was a bit foolish because the queen was in a position to be pinned to the castle - there is another term for this, but I can't recall what that is...

 
19. b3
in any event white does not recognize the danger

 
19... Nb6
I give him an out....by running away

 
20. Bc1
still not seeing the danger, white tries to build an attack

 
20... Bg7
too late....

 
21. Qxc5
bye bye castle

 
21... Bxa1
indeed!

 
22. Qd4
Now this is HUGE blunder by white certainly ensuring a quick end to the game.
