18... f6 |
No, the f column should not be opened! | ||||
| | |||||
|
19. Rh1 g6 |
I thought Rxh7, and if KxR, Qh1+, followed by Qh6. But I wasn't sure it was enough. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20. Ne4 |
Bringing more firepower to the enemy's field. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20... fxg5 21. Nexg5 |
He can now attack the f column, but without much effect. | ||||
| | |||||
|
21... Re7 |
Intelligent. Returning the exchange in order to free his position. Now I have to be very "osé", if I want to keep my attack. | ||||
| | |||||
|
22. Nxh7 |
The Nf6+ threat is very dangerous for black. His best answer is Rg7, IMO. | ||||
| | |||||
|
22... Rxh7 |
But he went greedy, and this is almost mortal. I could have gone RxR, KxR, Qh1+, but after Kg7 I couldn't see a clear win. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23. Qxg6+ |
My queen returns! ...at the cost of a piece, but the presence of the First Lady into the king whorts it. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23... Rg7 24. Qh5 |
Qh8+ is not checkmate, though. | ||||
| | |||||
|
24... Qe8 25. Qh8+ Kf7 |
Again, I have to play very strong to make my attack successful. | ||||
| | |||||
|
26. Ng5+ |
The nice one. Tempo is all in chess. | ||||
| | |||||
|
26... Rxg5 27. Rh7+ Kg6 |
I was in doubt if to follow with the queen or the rook. Now, with more time, I realize that Rh6+, Kf5 (Kf7, Qf6+, Kg8, Rh8#), Qf6+, Kg4, Rg1#, but on the spot I didn't. Pity. | ||||
| | |||||
|
28. Rg7+ Kf5 |
Kf6, Rg8+ and I win. Now, I had to bring in the other rook, and get rid of defensive forces, so... | ||||
| | |||||
|
29. Rxg5+ Kxg5 |
Tempo is all. | ||||
| | |||||
|
30. Rg1+ |
It is funny how long my queen keeps "en prise" undisturbed.- | ||||
| | |||||
|
30... Kf5 31. Qh7+ Kf6 32. Qh6+ |
Kf7 loses to Rg7#. | ||||
| | |||||
|
32... Kf5 33. Qf4# |
So it worked, for once :-) | ||||
