Only move for Black to continue with. |

White continues on relentlessly, taking the d5 pawn to check the Black King. |

11... d5 earlier means that this is playable too, developing another piece for Black. Kh8 is clearly mate again from Bg7. |

White chooses to grab another piece, putting him +11 up in material terms at this moment. White's King is in the middle of the board with little support and I think White underestimates how quickly Black can now mobilise for an attack on that King. Black has a forced mate in four here. |

I like this move a lot - many players will re-take a piece just because they assume they must. Black ignores the Bishop to mount an attack of his own. |

Only move as 15. Kf1 Qd1#. |

Black continues the attack, forcing the king towards the centre. His only flight square now is f3. |

Black misses a forced mate in two here with 16... Qd1+ 17. Ne2 Qxe2#, but continues his attack with Qf6+ trying to close his pieces in around the White King. |

White blocks the check from the Queen with his bishop. |

Black releases the pin on the knight by moving the King - he chooses to ignore both the Bishop and Rook, threatening mate in one. |

White tries to develop, attacking the LSB... he misses Black's checkmate. |

And in one swift Knight move, rekraparker gets an unexpected win even though he is down by a Rook, Bishop and pawn. I want to congratulate rekraparker on effort in this game, trying relentlessly, even when it looked like White had got well on top of him.
Thank you all for reading. |
