ch-RUS Playoff/Moscow RUS (6) 2008
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 Nf6 5.
Rc8 19. axb5 axb5 20. Qf3 Nb8 21. g5 hxg5 22. Ne4 A nice manoeuvre - White's minor pieces are beautifully centralized.
22... Nd7 23. hxg5 Nxg5? From hindsight it seems that this is already the losing move.
Black probably had to try 23... Bxg5
24. Bxg5 Bxg5 25. Ra6 Qe7?! 25... Be7 26. Qh3 Nb6 (26... Nf6 27. Ng5
)
27. Rxb6 Qxb6 28. f6
26. Ra7 Rfd8 27. Qh5 Bh6 28. Kh1! White has enough time to get his last piece into the attack, with devastating effect.
28... Kh8 29. Rg1 Nf6 30. Nxf6 Qxa7 31. Ng4 Kh7 32. Nxh6 gxh6 33. f6 Rg8 34. Be4+ Rg6 35. Rxg6 Black resigned - he's getting mated.
