GM Kevin Spraggett's Tactics

By GM Kevin Spraggett, Canada.
Best FIDE rating: 2633
Kevin's blog (parental advisory)
Today some tactical examples from my own games:
GM Spraggett,K
Monnard,Laurent
Andorra Open, 1991. Position before Blacks 24th move. A sharp Leningrad Dutch has given way to White being near winning on the Queenside but having his King wide open on the other side. At first I thought of playing 24Ng4!?, but did not see a clear line after 25.Qf3!, though Black maintains a strong and dangerous initiative. Then a clever idea came to my minddo you see it also?
