16. Bf4 Nh7 |
Finally! The sort of move I've been waiting for. h7 is a very weak square for the Black Knight, covering just 3 squares. He has abandoned the double threat he was posing on my Knight at d5 and opened the doors up for several different ideas. Perhaps 16...Ne5 17.Bd2 Nxd5 18.Nxd5 was better ??? | ||||||

Again, Black plays into my hands. White can quickly gain a material advantage after 18.Nxf6+. | ||||||

18. Nxf6+ |
Fork forces Black to take the Knight. | ||||||

18... Nhxf6 19. Bxd6 Qa8 20. f3 |
I wonder if 20.Qc2 would've been more efficient? | ||||||

20... Re6 21. Bh3 |
Puts some pressure on Black's Rook, forcing him back to e8. | ||||||

21... Re8 22. Nd5 |
Baiting Black to take the Knight so I can gain a strong Pawn formation in the centre. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
22... Nxd5 |
Thankyou :o) | ||||||

Black is playing a wonderful game of patience, not allowing the pressure that White is inflicting to make a difference in his game Black continues to frustrate, hoping for an opening or a mistake. | ||||||

24. Qc2 Ne5 |
Another nice move, threatening White's f3 Pawn and hoping to disrupt the nice chain White has constructed. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
25. Qc3 Nc4 |
Forces the White Bishop off his pedestal. I don't mind, I was intending on moving him shortly. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
26. Bf4 Qd8 |
A shame, after all of Black's careful play it comes to a small mistake. This gives up the Bishop. Best move I can see is 26...Na5 27.b4 cxb4 28.Qxb4. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
27. a4 Bxa4 |
No real choice. Note, no good is 27...Bd7 which follows 28.Bxd7! Qxd7 29.Qxc4, winning the Knight and Bishop for a Bishop. | ||||||

I think I'd have gone with Nd6 instead. The Pawn was well defended where is was, so I see no need to have moved it. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
30. d6 |
Beginning my attack run, hoping the pressure of having passed Pawns approaching the back rank forced my opponent into an error. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
30... Nb6 31. e5 c4 |
Again, clever move. Once more Black frustrates his opponent, forcing a move that slows the advance of the two central Pawns. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
32. Qb2 Qa8 |
Obviously hoping to delay the match, intending to sacrifice a Rook to stop promotion rather than a Queen. However, a poor move showing the pressure has finally got to my opponent. I believe 32...Nd7 to be the best, following the line 33.e6 fxe6 34.Bxe6+ Rxe6 35.Rxe6. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
33. d7 |
Black's best chance for delaying a mate is to take the Pawn with his Knight. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
33... Rd8 |
Which he misses. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
34. e6 |
Baiting Black, hoping to bring my Bishop into the attack. | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
34... fxe6 |
Thankyou again :o) | ||||||
