Game 2970071
I think this is quite an interesting game, but i dont know where either side can improve, can anyone help out please?
14. Ne4 took me out of database, and the best reply i could see was Nd5.

The rest seemed pretty standard, but has anyone got any comments please?

I don't think 29. exf3 was any good, giving away your passed pawn, and opening the file that his rook was on. I've only glanced at the game.

you're probably right. my plan towards the end was to draw but maybe i could have gotten a win if i had played it better?

Yup, I was 🙂. Junior 8 puts white down 1.5 pawns after 29.g5.

Junior 8: 29...g5 30.fxg5+ Ke5 31.Rc4 f4 32.Re1 e3 33.Rf1 Rg8 34.d6 e2 35.Re1 Rd8 36.Rc7 Rxd6 37.Rxh7 Rd1 -1.48

Once you get a passed pawn, especially two connected passed pawns, you need to work with them as they are really strong.
