O-O-O Nxg4 Black is hoping in 13.hxga Bxg4 pinning with the Bishop both Queen and Rook. 13. Bxc7 Qh4 Black protects the Knight (if hxg4 then Qxh1) and also threats Nxf2, forking both Rooks. 14. Rf1 Nf6...but has to change plan quickly... 15. f3 Bf5 Black applies pressure on e4, hoping to land there with the Queen after the exchange of pawns and Bishops. 16. Bb3 b5 17. fxe4 Nxe4 Black idea is to lure Bxd5 to then play Ng5 forking Queen and both Rooks... to bad he didn't notice the Bishop in c7, who was resting quietly waiting for action... 18. Bxd5 O-O 19. Qg2 Nxd2 20. Kxd2 Rac8 21. Bf4 Ne7 Hoping to save the Knight while threatening the Bishop, Black gets forked instead. 22. Bg5 Qxg5 No point trying anything else: the Queen is lost anyway. Black tries to mitigate by taking both Bishops... 23. Qxg5 Nxd5 24. Nf3 b4 25. Rc1 Rfe8 26. Rhe1 Nf6 27. Qf4 Bxh3 28. Ng5 Bf5 29.
