36. Ke3 |
Played to protect d4, but I think this is a blunder, for reasons we shall see. I think I need to get my king to c3 to protect the d pawn. However I can't move Kd3 because then e6-e5 wins a pawn for him. So I think my best move was Rd2 followed by Kd1-c2-c3. | |||||||||

I threaten his bishop. | |||||||||

|
39... Bf6 |
The bishop retreats. I think this is a mistake and simply e6-e5 leaves him a clear pawn up. | |||||||||

40. Rxd8+ |
I take. | |||||||||

40... Bxd8 |

This is a blunder too. The knight is needed on f4 in order to block the d file on d5. | |||||||||
