21... fxg6 22. Qxe1 Nd3 23. Qe6+ Kg7 24. cxd4
|
Now it is as if I lost a pawn for a knight but my doubled d-pawns will be a problem. |

|
| |
|
|
24... Qd8 25. Qe3
|
I didn't want black to be able to try to force a queen exchange. |

|
| |
|
|
25... Nb4 26. Qb3
|
Protects d5 and attacks the b4 knight. |

|
| |
|
|
26... Qb6 27. Rd1
|
Defends d4 from Qxd4+. |

|
| |
|
|
27... Nf6
|
Double attack on my d5 pawn. I decided to push it though its pretty much lost. |

|
| |
|
|
28. d6 Nbd5
|
I think black could have done better here Qxd6 seems logical. |

|
| |
|
|
29. Qxb6
|
Why would I trade queens when I'm down well one the queen really didn't have any good squares to go to and two do to my kings exposed position; I'm better off with the queens off the board. |

|
| |
|
|
29... Nxb6 30. Rc1
|
My plan is to play Rc7+ Rxb7 if possible. |

|
| |
|
|
30... Rd8 31. Rc7+ Rd7
|
Stops Rxb7 but I noticed that maybe I could make the trade of rooks good for me. At this point I was trying my best to make my opponent give me as many chances back into the game as possible. |

|
| |
|
|
32. Ne3
|
Trying to make a queen if Rxc7. |

|
| |
|
|
32... Ne8
|
My rook can no longer hold this position I decide to exchange so I don't lose a pawn. |

|
| |
|
|
33. Rxd7+ Nxd7 34. Nc4
|
Protects d6 and creates the possibility of Ne5 trying to queen still. |

|
| |
|
|
34... Kf6
|
Black brings the king into action. |

|
| |
|
|
35. Kf2
|
I bring my king closer as well because a centralized king is best in the endgame. I also hoped that black would force me into e5 with b5 and that's exactly what happened. |

|
| |
|
|
35... b5 36. Ne5
|
Black has no reason not to exchange but black may have been better of with Ke6. |

|
| |
|
|
36... Nxe5 37. dxe5+ Ke6
|
Note Kxe5 d7 and I queen! |

|
| |
|
|
38. Kf3
|
attempting to come to the defense of the e5 pawn. |

|
| |
|
|
38... Ng7
|
I would think blacks best would be to exchange knight for two pawns here but I think that may actually give white chances the computer shows this move as best. |

|
| |
|
|
39. Kf4
|
I was hoping to lure blacks knight to h5 but black can punish me here with Kd5. |

|
| |
|
|
39... h6
|
My king can't attack the pawns now. |
