17. Nc3 Ng4

This is a fairly obv mistake unless he expects me move my rook or queen off defense of f2. The most important factor is that he is opened up an all out attack for me on f7. Secondly he freed my knight to own d5, which I was planning for long term position. Noticing that f2 is in no real danger (after a long thought), I went ahead with my plan to take the center board. |

18. Nd5 Qd6

I think right here he also noticed f2 was a lost cause since I didnt bite, and was now trying to protect the pawn at e5 since I had 18. ..., Qe5, 19. ..., Qc7 adding lots of pressure to his undeveloped pieces, though that isnt fully thought out. Either way, it is a defensive play which left me in one of those spots thinking about future moves, and decided to figure out an attack. I thought about removing his knight with h3, forcing retreat and giving me the chance to take control of space, but I decided I had enough space and could attack the knight whenever I wanted to, so I positioned for a long sequence attack. |

19. Rac1

Rac1! imo. My next move is obv Nc7 with no even trade posibility for black, he is on full defense. |

19... a6

a6! also. He recognized my attack, and how little he could do against it, this protects my eventual retreat to b5. The attack is now is full steam however, and mate opportunities a many should he believe my next move is hanging the knight. a6 showed that he recognized it, but the advantage is significant, proceed as planned. Only one move that looks to avoid catasptrophe, Rb8. |

20. Nc7 Ra7

I think this was a mistake, Rb8 looks far better and would have kept his rook in play. |

The attack is now in full swing. |

21... Nh6 22. Qf2
|
Queen trade is his best move here most likely. Anything else and he allows me to catch up in material. |
