More pressure here. I see where I need to go but his rook on the back rank is preventing me. Consider how to force him into taking my rook, but must deal with one issue at a time.

Hoped he would take it with his rook, but no such luck. Need that rook off that back rank!

He lost protection for his bishop coming to c4 earlier. It is a long shot I am playing with here. He has to see what I am up to right?

Wrong. For some reason I do understand he moves his rook down. A miracle really. Maybe double protecting the g2 square. In any case...

The game ends suddenly and I break 1450 for the 1st time. Any lesson here for guys at my level is that do not assume the other guy sees your "brilliant" though obvious plan and so you may as well give up on it. Who knows what may happen
