axb4 ep
It may be some help to discuss the next moves.
The computer can only really reply two ways to this. Rxb3 or axb3.
Rxb3 would be the worse of the two move, allowing us to play Bd6 which exchanges rooks but has a much better position for black.
axb4 ep (more likely) should get Bd6. The machine will be stuck with too many choices and will most probably make a positional mistake at this point with either Be3 or Bd2. Be3 allows us to exchange white squared bishops.

Correct is of course axb3 and engine authors are the most aware of it.
I append the "ep" as a hint for some of us (copied from Chris).

Hehe. It was a long day. Glad to see you got the ep part in there.

PS I'm watching a quite startling football match between Maccabi Haifa and FC Aktobe.
