Trevor of course had it all planned out for 40 moves but the computer thinks if Jon hadnt fallen for the trap he would have had an edge. Note I have made a load of queston marks in the game but some games are like that-only the computer sees the correct moves. To human eyes the game appears extremely well played by both sides upto the blunder by Jon.} Rg8 21. fxg6 fxg6 22. Nxg6 b3 23. a3 Bxb2 24. Qxb2 Rxg6 25. e5 Rg8 (25... dxe5 $4 26. Bxg6+ $18) 26.
