In chess, every time you swap a piece, it can completely change how the game is going. It's like a careful dance of swapping that can shift who's winning. Get ready for a trip where we learn all about these swaps, where every move can make the game look totally different.

34..., Qe7 offers some resistance. but white does possess a superior pawn endgame.

Qe7, Qd6 no?

#4, no if Qd6, NxB on c4. attacking the White Q on d6. White must give up the pin. Black is up a piece but things are complicated and black is not out of the woods yet.

35. Bb3 and queen exchange can't be avoided.

#7, if 35.Bb3, RxBb3 we can trade Queens now. or 36.axb3, Qa3+ 37.Kb1,Qxb3 38.Kc1,Qa3+ 39.Kd2,Qa5+ and the position is still complicated. Black has a potential for a draw or transposing into a knight + 2 pawns vs. rook + 2 pawns endgame. Unless I missed some intermezzo in the calculations. I am doing it in my head and I don't have a computer to check the work.
