17. Bxc6 |
Inflicting a structural weakness, but also removing the only developed piece. | ||||

17... bxc6 18. Bf4 |
Ironically, this is a mistake. f4 would have been the more natural choice, however, after ...Rb8, ...Bc5, and ...Bd4, the b2-pawn is falling. | ||||

18... Rb8 |
The rook will find a very nice home on the 7th rank. | ||||

19. Nc3 Rxb2 20. Rd1 Rc2 21. Ne4 Rxe2 |
Winning material with threat. If the knight moves the e5-pawn drops. | ||||

22. f3 h6 |
Not only creating luft, but preparing to kick the bishop with ...g5, when the e5-pawn drops. | ||||

23. Rd8 g5 24. Nc5 Kg7 25. Nd7 gxf4 |
Also possible is ...Be7. | ||||

Here White resigns. Thanks to my opponent for a well played game. | ||||
