24... c6 25. Bc7

? It's better to go through with my original plan 25. Nc7,just losing a pawn.
Computer:25. Nc7 Rf8 26. Rad1 -/+ |

the weakness on d4 now shows. Perhaps I shouldn't have traded too much? |

|
| |
|
|
27. b3
|
to prevent the knight from going to c4. |

|

27... a5 28. Qe2 Nd5 29. Qd2 b4 30. a4 Bf6
|
the pawn is a goner |

|
| |
|
|
31. Rac1 Nc3
|
the knight ends up gaining an outpost on the c-file and it cripples my position even more |

|
| |
|
|
32. Qe3 Bxd4 33. Qf3 f5 34. h3
|
supporting a thrust to g4 |

|

|
|
34... Qf7 35. g4
|
blindly missing the threat. After I get down against higher-rated players I lose it. This is probably bordering masochism. |

35... Qxb3 36. Qxf5
|
?? the final error. 36.gxf5 is better |

|

36... Rf8

I just keep making blunders |

|
| |
|
|
41... Ne2+ 42. Rxe2 Qxe2 43. Rc8+
|
Making checks to make the game last longer |

|
| |
|
|
43... Kf7 44. Rc7+ Kg6 45. Rxb7
|
another horrible mistake |

All in all, a better effort than my last game vs. Freddy. But it was not enough |
