|
Again taking away attack moves and distracting me. Also, further forces me left because 18. Ke1...Nxc2 and then I loose my a1 rook. |

|
| |
|
|
18. Kc1 Rae8
|
This means my bishop is all but immobile because I don't want the black rook to have the e file. |

|
| |
|
|
19. a3
|
Forcing the knight away. |

|
| |
|
|
19... Nd5 20. Nxd5 f5
|
Nifty move forcing me to either give up the e file or be creative. |

|
| |
|
|
21. c3
|
Creative I was. |

|
| |
|
|
21... Qe5 22. Nxc7
|
More attacking forcing my opponent to defend. |

|
| |
|
|
22... Rec8 23. Nce6
|
More forced moves. |

|
| |
|
|
23... Rf6 24. Bxb7 Rb8 25. Bc6 Rg6 26. f4
|
Nf7 is the much better move. Not sure how I missed it. If 26. Nf7 assume 26...Kg8 27.Nxe5 and the queen is no more. |

|
| |
|
|
26... Qe3+
|
A nice counter by black. |

|
| |
|
|
27. Kb1 Qb6
|
In search of Qxb2# |

|
| |
|
|
28. b4
|
Kc2 would have been better as it would allow my king movement behind the pawns and if blacks queen took b2, the rooks have each others back. |

|
| |
|
|
28... Qxc6
|
Looking for Qxc2 putting pressure on my rook. |

|
| |
|
|
29. Kb2 Qxg2+
|
Forcing me to b3 as moving to b1 or c1 looses my h1 rook. |

|
| |
|
|
30. Kb3 Qd5+ 31. c4 Qd3+ 32. Ka4
|
Forced. 32. Ka2...Qc2# |

|
| |
|
|
32... Kg8
|
This frees the pawn to take the knight which is a further distraction as I have to deal with that and the roaming queen. |

|
| |
|
|
33. Rad1
|
Ra-c1 would have been better. This would have protected my c4 pawn. |

|
| |
|
|
33... Qc2+ 34. Ka5
|
Only play. |

|
| |
|
|
34... Qxc4 35. Qh5
|
Looking to get the rook. |

|
| |
|
|
35... Qb5#
|
I never saw it coming. Literally, I over looked it totally. This was a great game all the way around. A few over looked moves meant the demise of me in this game. |
