20... Qd4+ 21. Be3 |
He is getting his bishop back, but helping my development. | ||||
| | |||||
|
21... Qxd5 22. Rfd1 |
Computer agrees with these moves and says White has a decisive advantage. | ||||
| | |||||
|
22... Qc6 23. Qc4 |
I was originally going to play Qg4 with similar threats, but I thought that this move kept more central control. I was wrong, Qg4 would have been better, as now he finds a way of staying in the game. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23... h6 24. Qxe6+ |
With the Queen on g4 I would have been able to play Qxg6, but White is winning easily. For the record, computer prefers 24. b4. What do you think dear reader? | ||||
| | |||||
|
24... Kh7 25. Rac1 |
Mobilising my reserves....computer actually prefers Qe7 | ||||
| | |||||
|
25... Rae8 26. Qh3 |
Dave takes advantage of a pin on my knight, so if 26. NxR?? QxQ. Once again I have the chance to win two rooks for the Queen with 26. QxR, RxQ 27. NxR, but I decided this was better. | ||||
| | |||||
|
26... Rea8 27. Nc4 |
Computer actually prefers e6 and afterwards I was thinking that b4 may have been better. I think they all win! | ||||
| | |||||
|
27... Rxa2 28. Rxd7 |
After the game Dave confessed he just didn't see this move. Computer prefers the Queen capture. | ||||
| | |||||
|
28... Rf5 29. Rd6 |
Rf45 threatened my rook of course. | ||||
| | |||||
|
29... Qa4 30. Rxg6 |
A nice move to play! | ||||
| | |||||
|
30... Kxg6 31. Qg4+ |
Regaining the rook. | ||||
| | |||||
|
31... Kh7 32. Qxf5+ |
White is winning easily. Computer wants to resign this position. | ||||
| | |||||
|
32... Kg8 33. Nd6 |
Computer prefers e6 and is probably right. | ||||
| | |||||
|
33... Ra1 34. Qf7+ |
Black is making one last bid.... | ||||
| | |||||
|
34... Kh8 35. Nf5 |
Threatening mate! | ||||
| | |||||
|
35... Rxc1+ 36. Bxc1 |
Black has just a few spite checks. | ||||
| | |||||
|
36... Qd1+ 37. Kf2 |
Black could resign here. | ||||
| | |||||
|
37... Qc2+ 38. Kg3 Qd3+ 39. Be3 Bxe5 40. fxe5 |
and Black finally resigns. Thanks for reading my annotation. Don't forget to leave comments and to rate my annotation, to let me know how I am doing! Until next time..... | ||||
