14... h5 
 | 
giving your rook the chance for future attack on e6 | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
15. Nd5 
 | 
gotta take surely! otherwise h7 is lost.
if you take h6 is lost :-) ... at last ... one track mind ... 
Obviously I've been working on that a file for some time. | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
15... Nxd5 
 | 
ok | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
16. Rxd5 
 | 
a6 is mine | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
16... Bh6 
 | 
ok - retrospectively ... now I get it ...
I'm aiming to take h7 *after* h6 this is your only opportunity to neuturalise the bishop - whilst getting your rook over to e6 in the meantime... 
so be it! though why I didn't think of progressing my pawns, namely f2-f4 is beyond me.. defending the bishop whilst developing the pawns!? | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
17. Bxh6 
 | 
ok I'll press with two rooks in the far corner then - bye bye faithful bishop | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
17... Rxh6 18. Ra5 O-O-O 
 | 
shit! forgot you could still do that! only one pawn then... grrrrr | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
19. Rxa6 
 | 
one pawn ahead going into the end game with e6 pretty undefendable. not happy! | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
19... Kb7 20. Ra5 
 | 
that 'feels' good though if you chase me with your king? | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
20... Rf8 
 | 
ok defending f5 | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
21. Re1 
 | 
enter the fray | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
21... g5 
 | 
ok - theres alot of thought here - 'specially around mating your king with two rooks. Either against the a file - or in the corner on a8 - but it would certainly take your complicity .... | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
22. Re3 
 | 
start preparation for attack on king | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
22... f4 
 | 
thats fine - I like e4  | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
23. Re4 
 | 
now the simple mate is, of course,
John comes off back rank with rook to f6 ...
kev goes rc4 - 
john takes kevs givaway pawn
kev goes rb5 
john k-a8 (oh yeah!)
kiev mate on the last rank
In your dreams a little more work to do yet as JD can come forward as well as backwards .... | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
23... g4 
 | 
ok moving your indefensible pawn | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
24. Ra3 
 | 
kiev moves a little further back and hopes John doesn't see mate coming...
(though it still takes a little complicity - If I move rook c4 the king coming forward to b6 wrecks any chance of mate...
As does johns retreat of his yet unadvanced rook!! | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
24... f3 
 | 
hmmmm - troublesome  | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
25. g3 
 | 
that should stop yer | 
   
    | 
|   | 
| 
 | 
25... Rff6 
 | 
ok so the rook comes forward... lets go for this ill advised mate attempt?
surely JD can get out of it easily enough!! |
