27... Rd8
Back to the home rank where i guess it will be most useful.....

 
28. Qe2
Time to try and pick off a few stray pawns.....

 
28... Rc8
I guess he realizes what i had in mind......

 
29. h4
If all else fails i can always rely on the old trusty pawn push....Note to self, watch out for Nf4 at a later date....

 
29... c5
He goes for the push aswel, over the top lads!!

 
30. bxc5
I may aswel take it as i can't afford to let him promote so the less black pawns on the board the better.....

 
30... Rxc5 31. Qe3
Hopefully i can bully a mistake out of my opponent....

 
31... Rc8
Back he goes.....

32. Qb6
I need to pick off his pawns and i should be able to do this at my leisure.....

 
32... Rc2
I see the plan, he wants to take out my pawns from the bottom up...

 
33. Qxa6
I can take this pawn and if he decides to go to Ne4 or Ng4 to back up his rook then i have a lovely suprise in store.....

 
33... Ne4
A fatal error, there is no going back now, i feel a warm glow envelope me as i realize this came is pretty much safely wrapped up...

A double header he has lost his knight and the only place for his king is h7 which means it's curtains for the rook also.....

 
34... Kh7
Sublime!!

 
35. Qxe4+
I feel kinda cruel but hey nobody gets hurt (physically anyway) and after all i did lose our first encounter so it's only right i mete out some retribution!! At this point my opponent resigned and i don't blame him. If it were me on the recieving end i'de want to get out of there asap aswel!! A good game and the winner was move 25, after that fatal error it was a matter of ten moves and black collapsed from the onslaught. Good game.
