14... Ng8 |
Black retreats his knight so his Queen gets access to f6 or d8 safely retreating his queen. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15. Bxf4 |
Another White piece is developed also with a gain of tempo. | ||||
| | |||||
|
15... Qf6 |
threatning 16.Qxb2 winning a1 rook | ||||
| | |||||
|
16. Nc3 |
stops Black's threat.... | ||||
| | |||||
|
16... Bc5 |
? This attack on White's rook can be easily stopped. Black should have realized that stopping White's next move was much more important than engaging in a counter-attack. | ||||
| | |||||
|
17. Nd5 |
!? A modern player these days would force Black back by playing 17. d4 ( if 17.Bxd4? 18. Nd5! and Black's queen has to move and where ever it goes Black will have to lose the d4 bishop afterwards) 17. Be7 now 18. Nd5 is absolutly crushing! | ||||
| | |||||
|
17... Qxb2 |
Black is treatening the obvious Qxa1 ..... | ||||
| | |||||
|
18. Bd6 |
! White ignores all of Black's threats. As you can now see White is beggining to surround the Black King with his pieces! | ||||
| | |||||
|
18... Qxa1+ |
Very greedy..... | ||||
| | |||||
|
19. Ke2 Bxg1 |
? Very greedy now. But Black wanted to take the rook and challenge White to try and prove his point. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20. e5 |
White does not want Black's Queen taking part in the defence at all. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20... Na6 |
Black could have been more stiff by doing 20. Ba6 which gives his King the c8 square to run off to. But White gets a winning ending but only after 21. Nc7 Kd8 22. Nxa6 Bb6 23. Qxa8 Qc3 24. Qxb8 Qc8 25. Qxc8 Kxc8 26. Bf8 h6 27. Nd6 Kd8 28. Nxf7 Ke8 29. Nxh8 Kxf8 30. Ng6 30. Kf7 31. c3 Ke6 32. d4. | ||||
| | |||||
|
21. Nxg7+ Kd8 22. Qf6+ |
! Whit draws the Knight away from the defence of the crutial e7 square! | ||||
| | |||||
|
22... Nxf6 23. Be7# |
Checkmate! This position is very pleasing indeed! White has sacrificed his Queen, both his Rooks and also a Bishop to get a pure minor piece checkmate! | ||||
