@Eladar
Star's around 17: then 20... e4 a brain storm or was it? It felt good anyway.. Thank's Eladar..

@Hells-Caretaker

Looks to me that black should have forgotten about the knight and captured the bishop.

Black's white bishop needed some help as well

Why would one choose to double pawns?

I do not know but black seemed to make a few bad choices.

Why not 20.fxe5 🤔

@Patzering

I do not think white wants to block his bishop with his own pawn.

@Eladar

I figured Black is wanting a semi open D file and a Queen side pawn mass for an endgame attack.

@Eladar

It would only be temporary because white could push the d pawn and after some exchanges he could be up a pawn.
Maybe 🤔

@Patzering

Then 21.ef Re8, 22.Rfe2 or back off with the Bishop to f7 maybe which is what I anticipated.

@Patzering

Black has doubled c pawns. I think he would welcome a d pawn push.

I think at move 20 instead of retreating the knight white should take the pawn fxe5 and then push his d pawn eventually to open up the center because I feel he is better developed.

Can someone put the game in the computer and see what it says?

🤗

@Patzering

But does not give the reason. You asked why not, but it is possible there were bigger things at play than the diagonal.
