22... Ng5
|
An unfortunate move in that it prevents f7-f6 from play because of the bishop pin that is enabled. The knight lacks any good targets from here, but there are not really any better moves to be found. |

|
|
|
23. Rf1
|
Adding a 3rd piece to the attack on f7, while casually offering the decoy pawn h3, which is not really expected to be taken, but provides a nice distraction to the opponents calculations. Also using a half open file. |

|
|
|
23... Ne6
|
Capping the north-east bishop line to f7. |

|
|
|
24. Nf5
|
The best move for a knight, a fork! |

|
|
|
24... Bg5
|
It only appears good at 1 ply, but the protective move can be refuted. |

|
|
|
25. h4
|
The bishop is attacked! |

|
|
|
25... f6
|
Black counter attacks, but the depletion of cover is felt under the pressing swarm of white pieces. |

|
|
|
26. Bd6
|
The rook is attacked, while the bishop avoids harm, while a second attack remains at g5 on the bishop! |

|
|
|
26... Rfc8
|
Black counter attacks, but the move leaves an unguarded weakness - seen on the next move. |

|
|
|
27. Ne7+
|
Another fork, with the strong effect of check! |

|
|
|
27... Kf7 28. Nxc8
|
A gain of material. It looks like the bishop at g5 will get away after Ra8xc8 because of the attack on the c4 bishop, but there is a rejoinder lurking. |

|
|
|
28... Bxh4+
|
Black pulls a sneaky and checks white who is taken by surprise because of not considering this response in calculations. |

|
|
|
29. Bg3
|
Blocking the check while counter attacking the undefended bishop! |

|
|
|
29... Rxc8
|
Now the bishop must move. |

|
|
|
30. Bxe6+
|
The check is forcing and will not allow the h4 bishop to escape capture! |

|
|
|
30... Bxe6 31. Bxh4
|
Capturing, but also setting up Rf1xf6+. |

|
|
|
31... Rxc2
|
A good place for a rook normally, but there is a matter of defense that has been overlooked. |

|
|
|
32. Rxf6+
|
The problem of where to move is compounded by the move Kf7-e7 allows a revealed check when the rook moves, and the attempt of Kf7-e7, Rf6xh6+, Ke7-d7 or d6 is met by Ra1-d1+ and it gets worse from there. |

|
|
|
32... Kg7
|
A reluctant choice. |

|
|
|
33. Rxe6 Rc6
|
Offering a trade, possibly in hopes of somehow achieving a draw. |
