13. f4
but of course i over-looked f4.

 
13... Be7
knocked me back with tempo.

 
14. Kh1
I was a bit frightened when i saw this move. it looks like he was going for a king-side pawn storm...

 
14... a6
so that's why i played a6. i wanted to get some counter-play on the queenside.

 
15. a4
he saw my plan of playing b5 and prevented it. Of course this is what i want,that he plays on the queenside instead.

 
15... Rb8
Supporting the b5 push.

 
16. Rc1
Just wanting to controll the c-file.

 
16... Nb4
i had little time and couldnt think of a move so i decided to quickly play Nb4.

 
17. Qe2
The threat was Nd3. Not much of a threat but he still decided to prevent that. it knocks that rook of the c-file only.

 
17... b5
a misscalculation. These happens to me in these quick games.

 
18. axb5 axb5 19. Nxb5
now we see that he won a pawn.

 
19... Qb6
That let me of course play Qb6! and it turns out that i would have perhaps played b5 in a long timed game because i win back my pawn immideately. you see...

 
20. Nc3
after Nc3 retreating the piece black has...

 
20... Nc6
Knight c6 attacking both the b-pawn and d-pawn.

 
21. Rcb1
the b-pawn is passed so he prefered defending it.

 
21... Nxd4
won back my pawn.

 
22. Bxd4
once again doubious...

 
22... Qxd4
...Now i get the whole bishop pair vs the knight pair. i just need to get my bishops in action.

 
23. Qf2
Another peculiar move.

 
23... Qxf2
I was glad to go in to the endgame with a queen exchange. I have the bishop pair here.
