21. Nd5 |

24. Re1 |
He improves the position of his rook. My e pawn is now slightly weak, open to attack down the semi-open e file and unable to move without being taken. Of course e7-e5 at any time will be met with dxe6 en passant. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
24... axb4 |
So I take | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
25. axb4 |
He takes back | ||||||||
| | |||||||||

25... Rb5 |

26. Qf3 |
He puts another protector on it. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
26... Qb7 |
and I increase the pressure on d5 | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
27. Rde4 |
He gangs up on my e pawn. Of course I can't play Nf6xe4 as he replies Qxf7 mate! | ||||||||

|
27... Rc7 |
So I protect e7 | ||||||||

28. Rf4 |
What is this? He is leaving the d pawn with only one defender and I have 3 pieces attacking it. Can't he see I can just take on d5? | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
28... Qxd5 |
So I take, but it is a massive mistake, I have missed a clever tactical point | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
29. Rxf6 |
Of course! Now if e7xf6 then Re1-e8 is mate! If Bxf6, then Qxf6!! mates. See http://gameknot.com/chess-puzzle.pl?pz=105923 | ||||||||

29... Qxf3 |
So I take | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
30. Rxf3 |
But of course he takes back with the rook, and I am just knight for pawn down | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
30... f5 |
My f7 pawn was attacked by knight and rook, so I had to move it to save it! | ||||||||
