12. Qe2
Bad is 12. Qxg7? Bf6.
12...h4 13. a4 hxg3
Or 13...Kf8 14. a5 hxg3 15. hxg3 Nf6 16. Be3 Nd7 17. Na4 g6 18. Nb6 Nxb6 19. axb6 Qd7 20. c4 e5 21. b4 Kg7, Adams, M - Ljubojevic, L, Breda 2000.

16. Be3 Kf8
Also possible is 16...Nd7 or 16...e5.
17. Bb6 Qb8

   
18. Na4!
A novelty. In Ponomariov, R - Ivanchuk, V, FIDE-Wch, Moscow 2002 White played 18. Bf3 Nd7 19. Bd4 Bf6 20. Bxf6 gxf6 with more or less equal game.
18...Bb5?!
Interesting is 18...Bd8 19. Bxd8 Rxd8 20. Nb6 Nd7.
19. Qd2 Nd7 20. Be3 Bf6 21. c3
White has a small but lasting advantage.
21...Ne5 22. Nb6 Rd8 23. Bd4 Qc7 24. b3! Bc6 25. Rad1 Qe7 26. c4 g5 27. Qc3!
Simple and strong. Now the first player has a clear edge.
27...Ng4

   
28. Nd5!
A nice typical blow.
28...Bxd5 29. exd5 e5 30. Bb6 Re8 31. c5 Kg7 32. Qb4 Nh2 33. c6!

35...Nxg4 36. Qxg4+ Rg6 37. Qe4
More precise is 37. Qh3! Rh6 38. Qf5 Rhh8 39. Qg4+ Kh6 40. Be4.
37...Bg5
If 37...Rh8 then 38. Qe2! Bg5 39. Be4 Rgh6 40. Qg4.
38. Qf5 bxc6 39. dxc6 e4 40. Re1 Re6 41. c7 e3

   
42. f4! Bf6 43. Bd5 Bc3 44. Re2 Bd2 45. Rh2 Bc3 46. Rh7+ Kg8 47. Rxf7!
White annihilates the pawn shield.
