21. d4 |
A good move, protecting the bishop and opening a line for his other bishop. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
21... Rd8 |
Rd8 is not given as a mistake by the computer, but I can't see the point of it. 21....f6 seems better to me, although really black position, a pawn and bishop down, is completely lost. | |||||||

White comes up with a reasonable plan - it is usually a good idea to exchange pieces not pawn if you are materially ahead. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
22... f6 |
Better late than never! | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
23. Ra3 |
White throws away material. Black could have exchanged on a3 and then on e5 and would still have fighting chances. | |||||||

23... Rb4 |
But black is a beginner too! | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
24. Bg3 |
And here I don't understand why black can't just take on d4. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
24... Re8 |
This move is not given as a mistake by the computer however. | |||||||

25. Bd3 |
And neither is this, although I would prefer Rd3 hanging on the pd4. | |||||||

25... Rxd4 |
Which goes at last. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
26. f3 |
White makes room for his bishop. | |||||||

26... f4 |
Black attacks the bishop. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
27. Bf2 |
Bishop attacks rook. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
27... Rb4 |
Black naturally moves the rook, but white could very easily win here with Rb4 28. Ra8+ Kd7 29. Bf5+ Ke7 30. Re1+ Ne3 31. Bxe3 Rxa8 32. Bc5+ Kf7 33. Bxb4 c5 34. Bd2 Rd8 35. Bxf4 b5 36. Be6+ Kg6 37. g4 Kg7, so Rxd3 is maybe better, although black is lost in any case. | |||||||

28. Be1 |
White misses that chance. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
28... Rd4 |
Black is forced to repeat. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
29. Kc2 |
White misses a quicker win with 29. Ra8+ Kb7 30. Rxe8 Rxd3 31. Bh4 Re3 32. Re1 Rxe1+ 33. Bxe1 Ne3 34. g3 Nf5 35. gxf4 Nd4 36. Bc3 Nxf3 37. Rh8 Nxh2 38. Rxh7 | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
29... Nb4+ |
This looks clever, but hastens the end. Kb8 30. g3 Ne3+ 31. Kc3 c5 32. Bxh7 Nd1+ 33. Kc2 Re2+ 34. Kc1 Nxb2 35. Bc3 fxg3 36. hxg3 Rc4 37. Bg8 Nd3+ 38. Kb1 is better, but still bad for black. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
30. Bxb4 |
White plays the right move. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
30... Rxb4 |
Black takes back. | |||||||
