18.Qa2!
Parham takes advantage of the pin on the d5-pawn and vulnerable situation of the bishop on f5.

8... Rb8!
A typical idea. Black wants to put maximum pressure on c4 with placing the Bishop on a6 and the Knight on a5.

20... Bc4!
White is completely squeezed. Pouria is trying to block the position and prevent his opponent from playing c4. The move also clears the d3-square for his knights.

50.Be2??
White who had a better position in the middlegame, his advantage gradually dissipated and he eventually lost the game.

22.Qe3!
Now Black hardly has a defense because of the weakness of his dark squares. The bishop on d5 cannot help Black's defense. Such a sudden metamorphosis is characteristic of opposite-colored bishop middlegames. With 22 Qe3 White takes the initiative, attacking e7 and creating the possibility of the queen coming to e5 when the dark squares around Black's king become fatally weak. The initiative in such opposite-colored bishop middlegames is often impossible to extinguish.

Black could cement his positional advantage by playing against White's bad bishop with 17...Ba5!? 18.Bd2 Bxc3 19.Bxc3 Nd5
Instead, he chose to play against White's king, which promised more.
