Not the best place he could put his queen. I would have sent her all the way to the a-file to avoid my knight's next move. |

I challenge the queen while I prepare a pawn's fork in d2, a double protected square again. |

Queen has to abandon d2. At this instance, I guess she was trying hopefully to recap my knight after my fork. |

Fork!
Since pawn is attacking a rock, he needs to play Bishop capture if he doesn't want to come out too bad. |

Sacrifices his bishop... |

I recapture with my en-prise knight to keep the advantage. |

Wants to get back the material balance by adding pressure on the Knight. |

I saw a nice combination. By capturing e pawn with my f6 knight, his queen is challenged and my other knight defended. Whichever he does, it turns out the better to me. He can't capture d2 knight coz his queen is en-prise. And if he captures e4 knight with rock, I recapture with knight leaving his queen en prise again, forcing him to take it with bishop, and then I'd be capturing his unguarded knight with a check. If he takes it with bishop, the same outcome results if he recaptures with rock, I lifted up the bishop threat on my a-rock and exploited the position with this move. |

He tries to keep the best balance. So takes with bishop. |

I recapture, he can't take the "free knight" without regreting so. |

Gets his queen off the en-prise position and adds some pressure on my knight. |

I just fall back my knight to a safe position. In this point, I'm 4 points ahead in material, so, I'll start trading off anything I can. |

I guess he wants to try coordinating his remaining pieces the best he can. |

I decide it's time for my Bishop to start doing anything. |

He tries to push his knight with useful purpose. |
