Maybe Tolemac will take pity on me and leave his Queen there...
Actually, I realised that I needed to get my king out of the firing line and moved the bishop to block the check on c1 |

|
|
|
14... Qxg2 15. Kc1 Qxh2 16. Kb1
|
Got my king out of the way for the loss of 2 more pawns |

|
|
|
16... Bxc3
|
And then lost a knight as well... -17... I pressed the resign button at this point in time and then decided against it as I wanted to see how long I could last. |

|
|
|
17. Qxc3
|
Aha! I finally captured a major piece... there is still hope -14 |

|
|
|
17... Nf2 18. Qd4
|
Can't remember why I moved here... (maybe I can get my bishop on c3?) |

|
|
|
18... d6
|
freeing up white bishop |

|
|
|
19. a3
|
Giving my king somewhere to hide |

|
|
|
19... Na6 20. Be3
|
Might as well threaten black's knight, I figure Bc3 is a silly move as it is easily blocked |

|
|
|
20... Bf5+
|
Check!... Black's knight is safe on this turn... Luckily I made my king a hiding spot... Additionally it frees up my rook |

Knight got away! |

A move of the knight threatens Qxg7# |

|
|
|
22... g6
|
Stopping the possibility of Qxg7# |

|
|
|
23. Bd2
|
Saving my bishop |

|
|
|
23... c5
|
Threatening my Queen |

|
Don't you just love "en passant" ... at least when it suits you |

|
|
|
24... Be6+
|
Not sure of Black's purpose here... |

|
|
|
25. Kb1 f5
|
That's what the purpose was... |

|
|
|
26. cxb7
|
Captured another pawn... things are looking up, only -12 now |

|
|
|
26... Rab8 27. Bc3
|
Waited long enough...time to threaten Qg7# |

|
|
|
27... Ne5
|
Nope, Tolemac is still watching this game |
