29... Ne8
|
He defends it furter. |
|
| |

If he captures my pawn, I recapture with my bishop and pin his rook on d7. |
|
| |
|
|
30... f6

He smartly decides not to. |
|
| |
|
|
31. Bd4 Kb8 32. h4
|
I make a closed pawn formation, stopping his pawns' advance. |
|
| |
|
|
32... Rhe7
|
This move signals his future attacks on my e4 pawn, a weak square now. |
|
| |
|
|
33. Be3
|
My last move here looks for a discovered attack on his Queen. I failed to realize that I am preventing my rook from defending my e4 pawn, and that will cause this game to open up very quickly. |
|
| |
|
|
33... Qh7
|
Another attack on the e4 square. |
|
| |
|
|
34. Ne2 Nd6

Yet again, he attacks my e4 pawn. |
|
| |
|

I threated a fork on c6, but his bishop can simply capture my knight if I were to do so. |
|
| |
|
|
35... Nxe4
|
He captures my pawn, and we are even. Thankfully, I am able to use this move to take the initiative, and put a lot of pressure on him. |

I check his king. |
|
| |
|

36... Bxc6
|
His bishop captures. |
|

I position my queen in a very threatening location. |
|
| |
|
|
37... Rd6 38. Qc4
|
He threatens my queen, so retreat and threated his a6 pawn. |
|
| |
|
|
38... f5
|
He defends his knight, I and believe that this move cost him the game. b5 would have served him better. |
|
| |
|
|
39. Qxa6
|
I capture, and threated mate with Qb7, eventually. |
