Pushing that a pawn to the 7th, and tying down some of blacks pieces while you switched to attacking the kingside was a good way to do it. I'm going to play over this one more slowly when I have the chance. Very Interesting game. 🙂

Nice win. Perhaps 26...Nc8 was more resistant

Nice win! ends up with extra piece or free flying queen.

Thanks for the comments. I thought the arrow-like pawn configuration should be advantageous to me because black’s pieces were very hard to move around, but then black’s spirited defence defeated most of my plans until I had the idea of a temporary swap of Q+R for Q+B
