24. Ne1
!! Now this is fully deserving of the props.

 
24... Qd7 25. Nd3
Threatening 26.Nf2 with a very strong advantage.

 
25... Qa7
The lesser of two evils. Prevents Nf2 but losses the f5 point

 
26. gxf5 Nxf5
Now the bishop that retreated to b1 has awoken from his slumber and the pressure around the light squares of abitibipower's king are lethal.

 
27. Qh3 Kh8 28. Rde1
Avoids ...Ne3 and intending re2 followed by rg2 maybe.

28... Ne7 29. Re2 Rg6 30. Rxg6 Nxg6 31. Nf2
For the win!

 
31... Ne7 32. Ne4
Threatening ...d6

 
32... Qc7 33. Rg2 Qc8 34. Qxc8 Nxc8 35. Rg6 Rd8 36. Bd3
Abitibipower does not have enough fingers to plug the dike.

D6 is toast!

 
37... a4 38. Nxd6
?? Oh my god what was I thinking. In truth I was getting ahead of myself. I was suppose to play Bc2 and black goes down two pawns.

Abitibipower is like a killer whale.

 
42. b3 Bd4 43. c6 f3 44. c7 Rc8 45. d6 Be5 46. Rxh6+ Kg7 47. Rh3 Nxd6 48. Rxf3 Rxc7
I had enough black will win another pawn and the game is over. Well play friend!
