Please Help Analyze this game
I'm a little confused, you keep mentioning breaking up the queenside pawn majority, but with the pawn structure shouldn't I be focusing my attack at the king position? Also can you explain how 32...g5! would work. Thanks for your feedback.
The unholy Internet Gods have intervened... My first analysis here was sacrificed on the wretched and writhing Altar of the Elder Timeout -- My second attempt fell into the blaspheming hole of Firefox Crash...
For God's sake, no matter what you happens you must not respond to this post... no matter how pitifully I beg, no matter what soul-rending shreiks or grief choked slobberings for mercy you may hear... stay away! in the name of sanity stay away!
Let me explain about 32....g5! White just made a mistake by 32.Rf2, which put his Rook on the same diagonal as his King. 32...g5 opens the long diagonal for your Bishop with a gain of time, because you're attacking his Knight. After 33.Nh3 Bg7 You attack his Ra1. After he saves that Rook, you have Bd4! pinning the Rf2 against the King and winning the exchange. The entire sequence would be 32....g5 33.Nh3 Bg7 34.Rd1 Bd4.
As to your first question: I'm not sure you even have an attack on White's kingside. In any case, there's no reason why you can't weaken White's queenside pawns and still attack on the kingside. This position isn't a desperate race, where every tempo counts and you have to single-mindedly push your attack and ignore his counterplay. Why not wreck his queenside and then attack the King if it looks promising?
I guess I need to learn the difference between those types of positions then...I just don't understand the difference here. The pawns point toward the king side = attack King side with pieces. Pawns point toward Queen side = attack queenside with pawns....me thinking.....ok I think since time is not a huge factor a should look to stop his plans before I start my own, is that the consideratin here?
