White has stolen a pawn and seens to have everything under control  15.Bxf6 exf6 16.c3 Be6 17.Nxe6 fxe6









 

18.Nf4?? whoops  18...Kf7? (18...Bh6 19.g3 e5 ) 19.Bd3 e5? 20.Nxg6? (20.Bc4+ Ke7 21.Nxg6+ ) 20...Rfe8 21.dxe5 Somewhat co-operative, again White's control is spoiled by tactical details  21...fxe5 The White knight has nowhere to go and White cannot stop ...Rxd3  22.g4 Rxd3+ 23.Kxd3 Kxg6 24.Rhg1 hxg4 25.fxg4 Both sides have chances, assymmetry is ultimately what makes chess fun I think  25...e4+ 26.Ke2 Ne5 27.Rad1 Nf3 28.Rd6+ Kf7 29.Rg3?? It takes a while for Black to spot the flaw in this move   29...Nxh4 30.g5 Ng6 31.Ke3 Be5 There you go  32.Rd7+ Ke6 33.Rxb7 Bxg3 34.Rxa7 Kf5 35.Ra6 Kxg5 36.b4 Bf4+ 37.Ke2 e3 38.Ra5+ Kg4 39.Rc5 Rd8 40.b5 Rd2+ 41.Ke1 Bg3+ 42.Kf1 e2+ 0-1
