I really don't understand this move, he needs to be developing his queen side pieces pronto. |

11... Be7
|
The bishop is played here, with thoughts of supporting king side pawn advances such as g7-g5 and/or h7-h5-h4 |
|
| |
|
|
12. e3
|
He solidifies his pawn formation, but againhe should be developing. I want to play my knight into e4, but I don't want him playing Ng5xf3 so I hit his knight first |

12... h6

Like this |

Knight retreats |

Mine advances |

So does his, but the difference is I can easily drive his back. PMCA gives it as a mistake and favors 14. Ba3 Bxa3 15. Rxa3 Qg4 16. Qe1 h5 17. Rh1 O-O-O 18. Nbd2 Qf5 19. a5 Ndf6 20. a6 Rd7 21. Nxe4 Nxe4 22. axb7+ Rxb7 but black still has a big advantage

So I hit the knight. PMCA says this is a mistake and gives Nxe5 15. fxe5 Qg6 16. Qf3 O-O 17. Qf4 f6 18. Ba3 fxe5 19. Qxe5 Rxf1 20. Kxf1 Qf7+ 21. Qf4 Nxg3+ 22. Kg2 Qxf4 23. exf4
|
|
| |
|
|
15. Nxd7
|
So he takes |
|
| |
|
|
15... Kxd7
|
I take back. My king is quite safe in the center of the board, as the centre is closed and unlikely to be opened quickly. |

This is a dreadful move, opening up his king side position. PMCA gives 16. c4 h5 17. Nd2 h4 18. g4 Qg6 19. cxd5 cxd5 20. Nxe4 Qxe4+ 21. Kh3 f5 22. Qf3 Qxf3+ 23. Rxf3 fxg4+ 24. Kxg4, but i think white needs to be developing his queen side pieces.
|
|
| |
|
|
16... Qg6
|
So my queen retreats. |
|
| |
|
|
17. Rg1

A necessary re-enforcement of the g4 pawn. |
|
| |
|
|
17... h5
|
Now he has problems defending g4 and he can hardly advance it, it will be lost. |
|
| |
|
|
18. Kf3
|
Bringing the king up, and into more trouble. Kf1 was best. |
|
| |
|
|
18... hxg4+
|
So I take. |
|
| |
|
|
19. Rxg4
|
This natural recapture is a mistake and should have led to a mate in 7 starting with Rh2. I miss the mate, but finish him off quickly. Just accepting that he is 2 pawns down with Kg2 was relatively best. |
|
| |
|
|
19... Qh5
|
I completely missed Rh2, the line I did look at was Rh3+ 20. Kg2 Rg3+ 21. Rxg3 Qxg3 winning, but Qh5 seemed to be winning too.

So he gives his rook greater protection |
|
| |
|
|
20... f5

But it is pinned and lost |
