{+2.10 / +0.36
And here I got my opening variations a tad confused. Nd7 is probably better here, but Bh7 is still a defence from Nfe5. }

7. Bd3 $2 $10
{+0.40 / +2.10
Okay, so either swap off the light squared bishop, which isn’t the one I’m worried about, or disrupt my pawns in front of where my king will be. Bh7 would let the rook do the recapture, but then I can’t castle kingside as planned. }

Not ideal, but not too horrible.}

{+1.17 / +0.36
Would Nf6 have been that much better? I might have been gunshy of Bd6 after the last time, but it would have prevented Ne5 being so strong, maybe…}

10. … Qb6 $6 $16 $201
{+1.65 / +0.44
That’s worrying; I can’t see after the game why I made this move. I must have been eyeing b2 even at this point. Sod.}

11. … Qxb2 $4 $18
{+8.08 / +0.40
Facepalm. And ironically, I really didn’t want to make the move, but all the worry over not playing aggressively enough messed up my head.}

12. Rfb1
{+8.00
And there it is. Wallop.}
12. … Qxa1
{+7.83
Well, it has to be one of them, and at least this one doesn’t give him the B-file without a tempo. Just, you know, the game. }
13. Rxa1
{+7.91}
13. … Nf6
{+7.87
Yeah, sensible move, where were you three moves ago?}
14. Ne5
{+7.91
That’s a nasty outpost. Qc7 should fix… oh, right.}

( 15.Rb1 b6 16.Qf3 Kh7 17.a5 $18 )
15. … c5 $201
{+7.67
The idea being to dislodge Ne5 in a few moves.}
16. Ne4 $18
{+6.42 / +7.67
Didn’t expect this (neither do the engines) but Ne5 can still be kicked, it’s just going to mean both knights go off, which I don’t like when material down, but this game’s a bust anyway and I don’t like Ne5 at all.}

{+6.14
And that’s exactly how I thought it would go.}
20. Qe4 $6 $18 $201
{+5.09 / +6.14
Why not Rb1 or Rc1?}
( 20.Rc1 Rfd8 21.Be3 Rd6 22.Qa6 Bxd4 23.Bxd4 Rxd4 $18 )
20. … Rac8 $6 $18
{+6.06 / +5.09
Engines say c5 instead, but I just saw c5, dxc, Rac8 then anyway and then Rac1 and c6, c7 and his queen can waltz in and wreak havoc while the rook’s pinned. }
( 20…c5 21.Rb1 $18 )

Really wish I’d moved the other rook here…}

{+6.94}
23. Rxc6
{+6.94
And now I’m looking for a way to drop a rook onto the back rank because there’s sod all else will save me!}
23. … e5
{+10.56
G’wan, take the pawn, I’m harmless, me, I mean why else would I weaken e6 like that?}
24. d5
{+10.74
Sod.}
24. … a5
{+10.97
Well, it was hanging.}
25. Bxh6
{+10.48
gxB, Qg4+, Kh7 or Kf8, RxB and stuffed. No thanks…}
25. … Rc8 $201
{+98.68
RxR, RxR, then gxB and the Qa4 and run away king and then Rc1+ but we’re out where the busses do not go with that one I think.}
26. Bd2 $18
{+13.05 / +98.68
Bit of a blunder that, did he think he hadn’t much choice maybe?}

26. … Red8
{+16.94
a5’s hanging, but I was focussed on RxR, dxR, RxB for some reason. }
27. Rxc8
{+17.01
Maybe he was too}
27. … Rxc8
{+12.96}
28. g3
{+15.95
And there goes the last hope out the window.}
28. … Re8
{+19.13
Thinking to free the bishop.}
29. Bxa5
{+21.01}
29. … Kf8 $201
{+42.47
Thought during the game that I couldn’t really move the bishop without this first. In hindsight, not so convinced of that.}
30. Qb4+ $18
{+23.56 / +42.47
And pretty much everything’s forced from here.}
