Preparing to double his rooks. |

!? Very risky. Black has attacking chances from many angles and white commits a pawn grab while guarding d7 from a doubled rook scenario. |

Opening the door for his rook to advance while doubling my pawns. |

!! Although it allows Rg-e7, it traps the bishop while threatening e5. White no longer fears the doubled rooks. |

Necessary to save his e5 pawn. |

?! What is this? It weakens White's back rank considerably, plus it does nothing to refute doubled rooks. A mistake...or a trap? |

! Oh! White wanted to plug the nasty hole in his d file with a rook of his own. |

!! Intentionally doubles his own pawns to set up a discovered back rank attack! This move could really hurt if all pieces are exchanged, but White has no intention of that. |

??? Seems serviceable, but black has completely lost scope here. He is fighting for the center and does not see his demise! |

Mate. I'm fairly certain that my opponent will stare at the board for a second and wonder why he cannot move to d7. On 29. Ne5, I did not reveal the THIRD item that was attacked: an escape square! Great game, tnaptguy. Thanks for watching! :) |
