20... Qb7 21. Rae1
|
This is where I really had to think for a while to find a good move. The only problem is.....I didn't have the time! Maybe 21... Ne4 is the most accurate. For example 22. Kd1 Qa7 23. c3 bxc3 24. bxc3. But I decided to play the textmove instead wich actually isn't that strong. |

|
|
|
21... Bf3+ 22. Kf1
|
? 22. Kd2 Rxg1 23. Rxg1 was definitely white's best option here.
|

|
|
|
22... Bg2+ 23. Ke2 Bf3+
|
? Twofold repetition. Gaining some time on the clock here.
|

|
|
|
24. Kf1
|
And thinking again... |

|
|
|
24... Rxg1+
|
Ofcourse...The white king is forced to the open g-file. |

|
|
|
25. Kxg1 Ke7
|
Defending the knight and simultaneously allowing the rook to swing to g8. |

26. Qf4
|
White could have gone for 26.Kh2 with something like Rg8 27. Rg1 Rxg1 28. Kxg1
|

|
|
|
26... Rg8+ 27. Kh2
|
?? 27. Kf1 [last chance.] Bh5 [Threatening mate on h1.] 28. f3 Bxf3 and now 29. Nc5 dxc5 30. Nf5 exf5 31. Qxe5 Kf8 32. Qxc5 Kg7 33. Re7 Bg2 34. Ke1 Qxe7 ! 35. Qxe7 Re8 should be no problem for black.
|

|
|
|
27... Rg2+
|
Ofcourse white could have resigned here, but instead decides to fight 'till the end. |

|
|
|
28. Kh1 Rg4+ 29. Qxf3 Nxf3 30. hxg4 Nxe1+ 31. Kg1
|
Dragon10 sportingly allows me to say a chess-player's favourite word: |

31... Qg2#
|
'Checkmate!'. |
