bye bye queenie...an 18 point lead and check to boot | |||||

begins to set up the end game. | |||||

a futile attempt to lure me into retreating... | |||||

24... Bxe3 |
bye bye paywn - just a mere foot soldier - cannon fodder | |||||

25. Bxe3 |
this is not going to help. White should be preserving pieces not sacrificing them | |||||
| | ||||||
|
25... Rxe3 |
this is calculated. I need the pawn up a row, the g3 pawn gone, and the queen on d5 | |||||
| | ||||||
|
26. Bd3 |
white tries...this.... | |||||

|
26... Rxf3 |

like I am going to allow a bishop interfere with my plans | |||||

finally white is getting the picture. But this retreat locks the king in for me and makes my life easier. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
28... d4 |
step two....clear d5 | |||||

this is actually a very interesting move. White fails to see the danger of capturing the castle. In the event he does so, I capture the knight and bring my pawn up to guard the f2 square. With the bishop on g1, I am almost home dry | |||||
| | ||||||
|
29... Qd5 |
finally, step three and a move or two away from mate | |||||
| | ||||||
|
30. Nxe3 |
white makes the fatal mistake of capturing the castle afterall | |||||
| | ||||||
|
30... dxe3 |
the f2 square is closed to retreat for white. The king is captured, there is nothing white can do. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
31. c4 |
in a futile attempt to distract me, white tries to threaten my queen. | |||||
| | ||||||
|
31... Qh1# |
On to Mate. A well planned and executed end game. | |||||
