Sambirder
Here is a game I played in a kid's camp on Monday. My opponent had lost a bishop in the opening, and I was ready t torture my opponent for ten moves. Here is the game.
Anyone?

wow, beautiful game.
I appreciate the compliment, however it doesn't answer my question. I really would like to know whether the "Water Torture" was correct, so I could use it, or avoid it in the future.
So I can assume that every move I made here was brilliant, and I couldn't have improved on it, right?

Cat and Mouse sounds like a piano piece I played by Aaron Copland.

Conquiscador, thinking that exact same thing. I think it was "The Cat and the Mouse"
Cat and Mouse, according to IM Jeremy Silman is when your opponent is helpless, however, instead of going straight and breaking through his position, you hang back a while, slowly make additions to your advantages, and only when you have added the most advantages break in and perform the deadly tactic. It is supposed to be a better way too ahndle this sort of position.
So, no one has any suggestions?
