28. hxg5

Two pawns… |

28... Rxg5

The knight was the better choice, as white is encouraged to take it now. |

29. Qf4
|
Bxe4 means black must move the rook. It was a free knight. |

Bxe4 is still available. |

30. Bxe4 Rg4

Nice counter, save for Ne5 eager to pounce. |

|

31. Nxg4 hxg4 32. axb5
|
Bc2 would save the bishop. |

Not safe there. Kd7 corners the bishop. |

Or Qa5, probably even better. |

34. Ra1 Qxa8 35. Qe5 Qa4
|
What is it with Qa4? The queen isn’t doing much there. Black is going to lose three amigos. |

Ok, mistake. Qxb2 loses the white knight. |

White was up five, and just shed that last point. |

Oops. Qg7, maybe? Why pitch the rook? |

Qxc2. Or Qc6+. Ra1+. A mate might be in there somewhere. |

Here white should play Qc4+, Ka5, Qb5# (either queen). |

Ok, it’s just as good. |

|
| |
|
|
51... Qb6 52. Rxb6+
|
Nope. Qxb6#. Not that it matters a whole lot. |
