The Turn-around rule

In Holland the more advanced young chess players usually learn about the Turn-around rule that was "invented" by IM Cor van Wijgerden. Sometimes it is very useful to check the move order of a sequence to see whether other move order are better.

In this not-flawless but rather spectacular game I could have won easier if I had turned around the move order.

I was too quick and got excited about a tactical follow up, but missed a very nice pin tactics checkmate with 24...Bxe3!

Interesting. Good point about move order often being critical.
