14... Na6
|
An unambitious move. White can easily counter the attack in the queenside. |

|
| |
|
|
15. c3 Nc5
|
My position had a hole...but it could be treated. |

|
| |
|
|
16. Qd1 Ne4
|
Why did Black proposed the exchange? He gets nothing out of it. |

|
| |
|
|
17. Nxe4 h6
|
?? Black lost material to...advance his h-pawn? What a blunder. |

|
| |
|
|
18. Ng3 f5
|
Now Black's intentions are revealed. He wants to launch a Kingside attack, and he then forgets his plans of a queenside pawn storm. |

|
| |
|
|
19. Bc2
|
The White bishop pins the black f-pawn, thus preventing the pawn push that would have forced the Knight to move. |

|
| |
|
|
19... Qf7
|
Black breaks the pin. Here, playing 20. Bxf5 or 20. Nxf5 is bad for white, because the f-pawn is defended by the Bishop. |

|
| |
|
|
20. f4
|
This move prevents the pawn push. |

|
| |
|
|
20... b6 21. Bb3
|
Again pinning the d-pawn. |

|
| |
|
|
21... Bb7
|
A bad move. The Bishoh is not active. |

|
| |
|
|
22. Be3 c5 23. Qc1
|
A move that protects the c-pawn. |

|
| |
|
|
23... c4
|
I was expecting this move...a rather anoying one. |

|
| |
|
|
24. Bc2 d4
|
? This loses a pawn. Or so it seemed to me... |

|
| |
|
|
25. Bxd4 Qd5
|
! Suddenly, Black's intentions were clear to me. He created a batery in the a8-h1 diagonal, threatening checkmate in one move. All those moves that seemed useless were indeed preparing a strong tactic. |

|
| |
|
|
26. Qd2
|
Forced. |

|
| |
|
|
26... g6 27. Rad1
|
This move threatens a discovered attack on the queen and the black b-pawn, wich is unprotected. |

|
| |
|
|
27... Rad8
|
Black protect his queen and refutes the discoverd attack. |

|
| |
|
|
28. Rf2
|
A protective move. |

|
| |
|
|
28... h5 29. h4
|
Preventing futher pawn push. |

|
| |
|
|
29... b5
|
The pawn isn't threatened anymore ; but at what cost? |

|
