I take an interesting position. This move might just prove to be important later on. | ||||||||

Dave looks to make up points by capturing the two pawns in the middle of the board. | ||||||||

A bit of rear guard action for myself. | ||||||||

17... Bxc4 |
Dave decides to exchange the Bishop for a Knight - I think that this move might just have been the killer move of the game for Dave. This exchange un-doubles my d rank pawns and eliminates a late threat in the game. | ||||||||

and it balances the board for me. Also, counting squares, I control 10 squares on his side of the boar5d and he only controls 4 on my side of the board...advantage me. | ||||||||

His rook capture of my pawn evens things up a bit in that regard. but I can close the door on any pending assault by his rook just by .... | ||||||||

Castling! I also have his Rook in my sights, and I am still dominating the board and I have a pawn in my sights as well. | ||||||||

Rather than defend his central pawn, Dave Castles too. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
20. Qxd4 |
So I think him and take the poor bugger. canon fodder for sure. This move also places my queen in direct contact with his castle too. | ||||||||

The Knight starts to make its way over to the battle | ||||||||

Leaving another pawn exposed to my wrath. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
21... b6 |
But a good move to defend both the Rook and the pawn. If I can get a pawn down to the 6th row in H, I will be just fine. | ||||||||
