Oops! Now I have a fight on my hands. If I take his queen, he takes back with his bishop with check. Say I reply to the bishop check with c6. After 13. Rxh4 cxb5 my "attack" is coming to nothing and my pawns are split. Fortunately I don't have to take his queen. |

|
|
|
11... Nc6
|
So I just develop instead. I am now threatening Bxf2 check, so his reply is forced. |

|
|
|
12. Qxg5
|
He takes my queen |

|
|
|
12... Bxg5
|
I take his. |

13. c3
|
He protects d4. He now threatens Nh3 followed by taking on f4. Only one way to stop going a pawn down. |

|
|
|
13... Ne3
|
So I lob in the knight |

He protects c2 |

14... Bd7
|
I continue to develop |

15. Nh3
|
He hits my bishop |

|
|
|
15... Bh6
|
I retreat, keeping an eye on f4 |

|

16. Kf2
|
He threatens 17. Nxf4 Bxf4 18. Bxe3 Bxe3+ 19. Kxe3 winning a pawn.
|

|
|
|
16... Nd1+
|
So I throw in a check |

|

|
17. Kg1
|
He retreats |

I go back. He could now play Kf2 and repeat, and presumably the game ends in a draw. He carries on playing for a win however. |

|
|
|
18. Nc4
|
Knight challenges my knight |

|
|
|
18... O-O-O
|
I castle |

19. Nxf4
|
He takes my pawn, removing a defender of my knight. |

|
|
|
19... Nxf1
|
So I take his bishop |

|
|
|
20. Kxf1
|
He takes back |

|
|
|
20... Rde8
|
And now the only way he has of defending e4 is Nd2, which drops the knight on f4, so he loses the pawn back. |
