Annotated chess game

if you mean 25... Qe2 26. Bc3+ Kh6 27. Nd2 Rxf2 28. Kh1 Rxg2 29. Qc7 = as the check mate square is defended.

Nice attack, fatal later but, nice!!

After the game, I saw 25..Qe2 if 26.Bc3+ Kh6 27.Nd2 Rxf2 and there is no way for white to defend g2 with mate approaching. White is forced to take the bishop as anyother move Rf1++ mates. Second opportunity lost.... elyhim, your sequence of moves is different ...if the King goes to h1, then ...28..dxc2 with mate on d1 becomes problematic

Funny, I too was looking at perpetuall checks from WHITE!. I disagree the move beeing wrong, as it adds onother threat with Qd1 to the arsenal and it will win the rook.

This literally dead wrong as white now wins with 30. Qa4 because white can now force the exchange of queens pick up the weak pawn on the queen side for the win

Draw is not was I was after. A win is still possible for black with Bxd2..and if 31.Qh4+ Qh5 32Qxh5 Kxh5 33.Bxd2 Rd7 forces the bishop to c1 and the black king will eventually support the pawn on c2

I do not think your move sequence is right. First, after 31. Qh4+, Qh5 32. Bxd2+!!, g5 33. Qd4 is still very good for me. And I think you stopped one move short in your calculation. Even if I traded Queens on move 32, When you play Rd7, I think I can hold with Bc1. I may not be able to win, but I think I have some pull in this position.

This awkward move was made in preparation for Rf2 as it would block the bishop from saving mate on h4. It also would not give the eventual recapture on d2 a check with Bxd2. I expected 31.Qxc2 as you never mentioned the threat of Qd1. I waited to clear the bishop first to do so with a check. Of course with your present Queen position, thats not posible but it limits your Queen movement as it has to remain there to protect it and Rf2 becomes stronger.

the only real moves for black were 30. ...Qe3 prepare to attack d2 with Rf2 or Rf5 but in the end both fail.

larniuico, were you hoping for 31.Qxc2 to play 31...R-f1+? Then, if 32.Nxf1, playing 32...Qxf1+ 33.K-h2 B-g3+! 34. Q-f4#. Similarly, if white played 32.K-h2, then 32...B-g3+! also mates.

The move black shoud have made is 32...Bg3. I expected 33.Qd5 to save whites Rook but after Rxf3 34. Qxf3 Qxf3 35gxf3 Bf4..the rook will be gone with a draw looming.

32. Nxe4 is even stronger threatening Ng3++ since after 32. ...Qxe4(forced) 33. Qxe4 with mate unavoidable
