📘 6...Qb6?!
6...Nf6 with the idea of ... d5 is the logical continuation.

📘 42.a4 R×a4??
A blunder.
Black probably could have kept the game and White had a hard time to exploit his advantage.
43.Qc6 Double attack 1-0

📕 23...Qe8!
Very strong. Just as it looks as if white is generating very serious pressure, and holds the initiative, black unpins his knight, reminds white of the d-pawn's vulnerability, and threatens ...Bxf3, and under some circumstances can consider ...Bg6.

A dynamic position in which Black has "hanging pawns", the undefended queen on d6 becomes a further factor in black's unappetising task.
