42. Kh2 |
White is close to zugswang, so he sticks to moving the king. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
42... Rg7 |
I was low on time, so I tried to think of a winning plan on his time. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
43. f3 |
A bad move that opens the second rank up completely. That is not a good idea when trying to defend against a rook. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
43... Rg8 |
Again looking for a plan. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
44. Ne2 |
Trying to free up the knights. Here I saw what I needed to do and forced the knight back to c1. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
44... Rb8 |
Attacking b3 again. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
45. Nc1 |
Forced to defend. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
45... Rd8 |
Attacking the knight and it has no where to go. Nf1 loses to the fork Rd1. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
46. b4 |
Another mistake. My opponent missed that the capture was with check. The check would have been avoided if the pawn hadn't been moved from f2 to f3. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
46... Rxd2+ |
Here white resigned. This game is a pretty good example of how to play with a rook versus a knight and pawns. I got an open file for my rook and tied his knights down to defending pawns. With white reduced to passivity, it was relatively easily for me to break down his defensive wall. | |||||||
