22. Bh1 Nxg4 23. hxg4 Qxg4+ |
Not overly sure I like this tactic. Black gives up his Knight for two Pawns and a strong attack on the White King. However, it did have the desired affect. I panicked. | ||||
| | |||||
|
24. Ng3 |
?! And as everyone knows, panic during a chess game is never good. At the time of the move I was thinking that Ng3 was better than Bg3 because my darkside-Bishop was in a nice position. In hindsight, I think I threw away my hard-earned slight advantage here, after 24...e3 25.c4 Rad8 26.cxd5 Qh3 27.Ra3 exf2+ 28.Kxf2 Qh2+ 29.Kf1 we'd have been about even but with the momentum swinging in Black's direction. Note: no good was 24.Bg2 after 24...Qxg2# | ||||

24... Nf5 |
I think 24...e3 was better | ||||

25. c4 e3 26. cxd5 exf2+ |
Promote threat on f2, so I have very little choice. Beginning to look like I may pay the price for having weakened my King-side Pawn structure. | ||||
| | |||||
|
27. Kxf2 Nxg3 |
?? The first blunder of the match I think. 27...Re3 28.Qxe3 Nxe3 29.Kxe3 was much better, forcing White to concede his Queen to stay in the game. | ||||
| | |||||
|
28. Qxg3 |
Offering the exchange of Queens, but Black knows he can't afford the exchange already being down in material. | ||||
| | |||||
|
28... Qxe2+ |
The better move, gives Black a 3-0 Pawn majority on the Kingside. But it's not going to make a difference if White keeps cool. | ||||
| | |||||
|
29. Kg1 cxd5 |
I preferred 29...Re3 first, then 30.Qg2 cxd5 31.Qxe2 Rxe2 | ||||

30. Bxd5 |
Pins Black's Pawns at b7 and f7, White begins to show why he was happy to exchange Bishop for Knight earlier on. | ||||
| | |||||
|
30... Qe3+ |
??? I almost want to add a fourth ? there. Black lost the game here, it was heading downhill already but careful play from 30...Be4 might've allowed him to force a draw. | ||||

31. Qxe3 |
White is more than happy to go with the exchange offered. | ||||
| | |||||
|
31... Rxe3 32. Bxb7 |
Forces Black to move his Rook and gains a nice Pawn majority on the Queenside. | ||||
| | |||||
|
32... Rae8 33. Bxa6 |
Now White has equalled Black's Pawn majority but on the Queenside. White's Pawns are much further advanced and so much more of a threat to Black than Black's Pawns are to White. | ||||
| | |||||
|
33... Re8e6 |
Think I preferred Be4, but I doubt it makes a difference now. It's over for Black, assuming White doesn't make any more errors! | ||||
| | |||||
|
34. Bc4 Rg6+ 35. Kf2 Re8 36. Rde1 Rf6+ 37. Kg3 Be4 |
Black admits defeat. Checking the Tournament table, I require a draw in my final match to ensure progression so tune in to see how it turns out! :o) | ||||
