an attempt to break open the shelter (17. ... a4 18. bxa4? bxa4 19. Re1 Qb5 ! 20. Kc1 a3. though white can escape by 21. Nxa3 Rxa3 22. Qc2 Rf-a8 23. d3 Rxa2 24. Rxa2 Rxa225. Qb1 Qxb1 26. Kxb1 and black has the advantage, but the attack has ran out of steam, but has an extra piece. Best move now is 17. b4, which seals the position right up, and allows white to escape. |

Interesting would be 20. Kc2!? with a sharp position, and some safety. |

aiming for mate. white has to take the pawn or move his queen. if he moves his queen, then eventually, he has to lose it or trade it in check. even then, it only prolongs the agony. Black will win no matter what. |
