{ A fabuluous move, exploiting all sorts of pins
and the weakness of the back rank. } { [%csl Rf7][%cal Gc2c8,Ra8h8] }
24. Qxd5! (24. Nd4 { It is true that
White is much better after this simple move, but the text move is much more
attractive and forcing! }) 24... Bxd5 (24... Qxd5 25. Rxd5 { is no
better, as the bishop is pinned to the rook, so White wins a clean pawn. } { [%cal Rc2c8] }) 25. Rxc8+ { Now we see the point. Not only does White win a rook and
the bishop for the queen, but Black also has to lose more coordination due to
the awkward position of the knight on f7 and the king on g8. } { [%cal Ra8h8] } 25... Nd8 26. Bc4 { Now a pin on the d-file also appears. } { [%cal Rd1d6,Rc4g8] } 26... Rxc4 27. bxc4 { And the bishop on d5 is dropping next, the knight is still
pinned and the bishop on b8 is also short of squares. White is completely
winning, so Deac's opponent resigned. A very pretty combination! } { [%cal Ra8h8,Rd1d8] } 1-0
