' Holy freaking [deleted explitives] ' was all that ran through my head when i figured this line out... not that it was especialy difficult, just that the whole thing took up about half the game and hammered those coffin nails in so deep... 

 

earlier in the game i was worried due to his huge helping of space and developement ahead of me... my game plan was maintain equality in the middle game then grind him down in the endgame...  and then this happend...

Very nice

 

At move 19, Qd8+ will mate very quickly (Ke5 Nc6#).

It was very well orchestrated either way.

Very nice combo--and typical of kind of stuff you can get out of the KID (which is why I love it so much).

 

You also had a mate in 5  with 17... g5+ 18 Kf5 Qxf3+ 19 Kxg5 Bf6+ 20 Kh6 Qf4+.

 

(19... Qd8+ was nice by the way, Loomis.)
