14... Nc6 |
Black develops the last minor piece. Black has a very small advantage here, due to better development, and a slight space advantage on the queen side. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
15. a3 |
White prevents further advance of the b pawn. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
15... Bd6 |
I have the Gameknot computer analysis and neither side makes any mistake in this game according to it. This looks wrong to me, I would have thought the natural move would be to seize the open file with the rook, or to centralise the king. I therefore set up this position on Fritz. Fritz does like this move. | |||||||

Black's spacial advantage on the queen side is no more. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
16... Ne5 |
Looking for more exchanges. An impression I am getting is that neither player is particularly ambitious in this game - both seem happy to trade pieces and head towards a draw. | |||||||

So the knight comes off. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
17... Bxe5 |
Recaptured. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
18. Bb2 |
almost symmetrical position now - at least on the a, b, g and h files... | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
18... Rc8 |
Threatening to take on c3. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
19. Rc1 |
so white protects. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
19... Kf8 |
King is centralised. | |||||||

This move looks weakening to me, and Fritz agree, preferring Be7 or Bb3. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
20... Bxc3 |
So black takes. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
21. Rxc3 |
White takes back correctly. | |||||||

Black wisely avoids the exchange for once. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
22. Rc1 |
Fritz prefers Bb3 here. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
22... Rd2 |
Black takes control of the white's 2nd rank, attacking g2 and b2. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
23. Bxf6 |
Black is wise to do this capture. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
23... Rxg2+ |
Black takes with check before recapturing. | |||||||
| | ||||||||
|
24. Kf1 |
If Kh1?? Black can mate with R to g3, g4, g5 or g6! | |||||||
