13... Nc6 14. O-O
|
14. f4 Bxb2 15. Rb1 Ba3 16. Rxd7 Rab8 17. Rxb8 Rxb8 looks good for Black since Na5 is very effective if White does 0-0. |

|
| |
|
|
14... Nd4
|
! Keeps control of the game. If White was allowed to play f4,e5 and then Ng3 Black would be in a LOT of trouble. |

|

15. Nxd4

|

|

|
|
15... Bxd4
|
Recapture. |

|
|
16. Bd5
|
This move blocks the d8 Rook from supporting the Bishop on d4. An exchange is in action here. 16. Be5 is also possible 17. Bxb7 Rab8 18. Bd5 Rxb2 19. Bxa7 Nf4 and it is anyone's game!! |

|

16... Bxe3 17. fxe3

Recapture..... |

Threatning the Bishop. |

|

|
|
18. Bb3
|
It retreats..... |

18... Rd2
|
Bang!! the Rook is always strong on the 7th rank especaily when doubled because they act as battering rams and the King will be restricted can't get out easily. |

|
| |
|
|
19. Rf2
|
A Rook exchange will be good for White because there will no longer be any Black Rook on the 7th rank and there will never will be. |

|
| |
|
|
19... Rad8
|
Keeping the pressure and supporting the Rook on d2. |

|
| |
|
|
20. Rc2
|
White is now threatning to win a Rook because the Black Rook is being attacked twice and only being defended once. |

|
| |
|
|
20... Rxc2
|
Not a happy choice for Black because he will no longer have a Rook on the 7th Rank. But it was forced. |

|
| |
|
|
21. Rxc2
|
Recapture... |

|
| |
|
|
21... Kf8
|
Black gets his King ready for action because it is the endgame stage. |

|
| |
|
|
22. Kf2
|
White does the same. |

|
| |
|
|
22... Ke7
|
Black has a slight advantage though he should consider getting the Knight to e6 where it would be stronger. |

|
| |
|
|
23. Ke2 Ng7 24. e5 Ne6 25. f4 f6
|
Gives the King some room. White can't push his passed e-pawn without creating weaknesses. |

|

The best reply. |

|

26... Kxf6

recapturing the pawn. |
