11. fxe5
Now he has no protection from my queen...except for my pawn, who will hopefully be moving soon...

 
11... Ng4
Something I did not predict. I fully expected a bishop capture followed by my capture of his knight. He opts to be aggressive against my QUEEN! No one touches her!

 
12. Qf3
Doesn't really threaten the knight, but it DOES threaten something else...

 
12... Ra7
This paved the way for the most controversial move that I played in this game...

 
13. Qc6+
WHAM! Right thru that hole! Even if she isn't there for long, her presence will be remembered...

 
13... Bd7
? Queen exchange would've benefited him more than myself, but he doesn't want to...

 
14. Qe4
My dainty queen is getting tired of this insolence!

 
14... f5
YES! OH JOY! OH RAPTURE! Next move I get to say it!

 
15. exf6 e.p.+
Pawn takes pawn en passant discovered check! YES!

 
15... Be7
Here comes another controversial move...

 
16. Qxe7+
WHAM! Queen straight into the jaws of Hell.

 
16... Qxe7+ 17. fxe7
Poor pawn...so close, yet so far...

 
17... Kxe7 18. Bg5+
Now that I have established a material advantage, it's time to exploit the lack of center pawns with this check. Not flashy, but workable.

 
18... Ke8
? Back to the home square? The monarch is far too passive!

 
19. Be2
That knight was bothering me, so my loyal bishop said GET OUT!

 
19... Ne5
Now that nothing can capture anything, it's time to secure my king. But...which side?

 
20. O-O-O
I didn't know which was stronger, so I chose this side.

 
20... b4
Pitiful knight threat.

 
21. Nd5
Long ago I said that I wanted my knight on the d5 square...and now, here he is!

 
21... Bc6
Another knight threat. However, TWO can play at that game...
