25. Nf6+ appears to win an exchange and a pawn, but it doesn't really matter

[anewfuture]

when you have 4 more pawns than your opponent, push them.

black had a better position(until the last few moves) but failed to push the pawns.

i never understand why players sac a piece of several pawns and then dont push the pawns, it makes the game so easy for the other player.

@anewfuture I guess black was pre-occupied with his king being mated. at no point was black better, and pushing his pawns wouldn't help. What makes the game easy is sac'ing a piece for a couple of pawns, not what black does after that.

Nd5 was possible multiple times

@ChristianWijnia

When white's king was on c1 black has ...Qxd2 with check. After Kb1 black played ...Re8. Now Nd5 does little since blacks bishop is protected.

AMAZING, great play kings crusher.

[BasicPawn]

More carnage!! Beautiful win.

After, 1. e4 d6 2. d4 d5, isn't there the option of 3. dxe5 dxe5 4. Qxd1+ and Black's king cannot castle? And yeah after 3. Nf3 it transposed to a Philidor defense not a Pirc.

[xactxx]

@xactxx I meant 2. d4 e5

[matttttes]

@xactxx why exchange queens so early? black can not castle, but he is ok

[Viksnikker]

I think this is more a philidor then a pirc
