  HeMateMe: Mamey got a bind on the center, and never let go. Keen how he transferred the advantage to the right side of the board.

  sakredkow: White gives Black the bishop pair with 23. Bxd6 which seems to leave her with a small advantage. 24...f6 immediately weakens her pawn structure and after that as HMM says Mamey never lets go.

Don't pay too much attention to me, I'm just tryin' to understand this stuff and thinking out loud. Oh, but fix it if I'm wrong please.
