Carrying on from move 17 again...
[FEN "rn1Rn1k1/ppQ2rpp/4q3/4p3/8/5N2/PPP2PPP/2K4R w"]
1.Ng5 Rxc7 2.Nxe6 Re7 3.Nc7 Rxc7 4. Rxe8 Kf7 5. Rh8 Re7 6. Rd1 Re8 7. Rd8 Rxd8 8. Rxd8 Ke7 {Now the plan for black is to get his king on b7 allowing him to develop his knight safely. Whereas my plans will become to try and get as many of the kingside pawns as I can and hope my pawn advantage will be enough to win the game.}
Definitely more fun than settling for a draw!
