Perhaps going for the e4 pawn? |

Not enough force by White to be significant. |

So why not pressure the rook? |

Just a meaningless exchange when other things could have ensued to shorten this game. |

I think a bunch of mistakes are made up to this point. I think the next move by White is not the best move. But I am looking at it hindsight. Taking the a6 pawn seems fine so why not? The d6 pawn will be protected and it is advanced. Perhaps Q d5 would work as well. I don't have the brains to say what is best but I see other options to consider. |

Black has a more than this option but that passed pawn is worthy of double attack. |

Well this gives up the advanced pawn here. There are other moves better. |

And there goes the advanced pawn along with the powering of a queen and rook in line...And, the White Bishop sitting there doing absolutely nothing without any power to squeak about last rites. |

Okay so the White Bishop is useful for something. |

And the something is an attack by Black after the Queen. |

Good move. The King is able more than often to take care of himself or business. We forget this time and time again. The King is a Fighting Piece. |

One of two choices for the most maneuverable pieces on the board to go. Now you know it is closing time. |

The King remains a fighting and defending piece for Black. Black knows how to employ the King's Saber! |

Black's King is still defending and wielding a Saber. In the meanwhile, the Queen is up to dirty business to advance the Infantry... |
