39... Re7 40. Bb3 |
3 reasons for this move: it liberates my rook for bishop protection; it opens my light bishop to better attack position, as previous diagonal was no more productive. Could sayt also that, in case the attack does not conclude on d column, I have a new perspective on c-column... but black has counter-game in that case. the computer suggests this is a mistake (without jeopardize the victory, though), and prefer the direct attack on the rooks by Bc5 | |||||

40... Rc8 |
pointless. I was amazed to see this move. | |||||

41. Bc5 |
and here is the very decisive positioning move. My bishops were really strong | |||||

41... Rec7 42. Rd2xd5 |
finally the weak pawn is taken... but it was no more the target, only an obstacle for next moves. Computer estimates this is a blunder, but I am really not convinced by its point of view... | |||||

42... Qa6 |
weak counter-attack... but was it possible to respond to next attack? | |||||

43... Rxd8 |
maybe better was to play 43 ... Qc6 but then 44 Bd5 followed by a lot of exchange: ... Rxd8 45 Bxc6 Rxd1 (and my king on h2 makes sense) 46 Bxa8 => White gains Q+B>< R+R, with the bonus of e6 very strong. But still black option here is a disaster | |||||

44. Rxd8 |
the king can't defend the knight... so, the only "defense" is: | |||||

44... Rc8 45. e7+ |
but now the rook is too well defended. And a discovered check that forced the end. | |||||

45... Kh8 46. Qg6 |
46. ... Qc6 47 Bd5 (not Qf7 of course, that would be followed by Qxg2x) Qxd5 48 Qxe8+ Qg8 49 Qxg8x or Kh7 49 Qh8x Thanks for having read these until the end. I hope you enjoyed as much as I did. | |||||
