offtherook(2357) whispers: Rxb3 Ra6 and we go into a materially level endgame, but my king is still more vulnerable
LJMon(1848) whispers: he cant save the a pawn
LJMon(1848) whispers: after Rxb3
35...Rxb3 (4:10) 36.Ra6 (0:24) Rb2+ (0:12) 37.Kf1 (1:16) Nd4 (1:14) 38.Ba8 (1:11) Ra2 (4:15)
LJMon(1848) whispers: at least a draw
LJMon(1848) whispers: B is a monster
offtherook(2357) whispers: Rxa7 right away runs into Nb5 winning a pawn, so maybe a4 first
LJMon(1848) whispers: yeah but the B will outplay the N
offtherook(2357) whispers: but then the trade of rooks involved there gives me bishop vs knight with the knight pretty far offsides, can maybe hold that ending if my pawns trade and sac bishop for last pawn
LJMon(1848) whispers: your a4 idea maybe
offtherook(2357) whispers: no good reason to gamble though, since after a4 it's not as though black has any way to keep me from taking a7 later, and it's always better to have the pawn than not
39.a4 (3:23) f5 (2:44) 40.Rxa7+ (0:27) Kf6 (0:27) 41.g3 (2:00)
offtherook(2357) whispers: with slightly desperate idea that if Rxh2 Bg2 buys me some time to make a nuisance of the a pawn
LJMon(1848) whispers: will also free your K from the back rank
41...Rxh2 (3:57) 42.Bg2 (0:34)

offtherook(2357) whispers: I mean, my pawn is slightly faster?
LJMon(1848) whispers: he cant go h3 yet
49...Ra4 (1:06) 50.Rh7 (0:56)
LJMon(1848) whispers: that B is a monster
LJMon(1848) whispers: after a7 B controls a8
LJMon(1848) whispers: after it controls a8 it controls h1
50...Ra3 (2:16) 51.Kc1 (1:23)
offtherook(2357) whispers: this does not blunder the bishop because Ra1+ Kb2 RxB a6 and my pawn is too fast
offtherook(2357) whispers: *a7
51...Kg6 (1:04) 52.Rd7 (0:39) Ng3 (0:21)
