29... Ra2a7 30. Qb1
queen drops back because to defend the back rank...the double rooks on a file is too strong...and because there is no pawn on f2 to cover the king...white has to be constantly on the alert

 
30... Qd8 31. Rf4f2 Qg5 32. Rf2f4 Ra7a3 33. Qb7
repetition of moves...white wants to draw...but was turned down..

 
33... Ra8a7
black knows his c4 pawn is his trump and wants to prove it.so he tries another option

 
34. Qb8+ Kh7 35. Qb1+ Qg6
i want to exchange...without his queen, white is hopeless

 
36. Qc1 Rb3
now black attack the backward pawn...

 
37. Rf4f3 Ra2 38. Rf3xf7
the f pawn is not important anymore...white c pawn is more crucial...if its falls...white cannot hold

 
38... Rc2 39. Qe3 Rbxc3 40. Qf4 Rb3 41. Kh1 Rbb2
2 rooks on the seventh rank is every player's dream...see how black manoeuvre his heavy pieces....whereas white double rooks have not achieve much...again see how the g3 pawn has revealed white's camp weakness..

 
42. Rg1
white is desperate

 
42... Rcd2
now my queen wants to join in the attack

 
43. Qf6
white tries hard to stop black

 
43... c3 44. Qxg6+ Kxg6
the exchange of queens means white has lost....the rest is just technique...

 
45. Rff1 Rxd4 46. Rfc1 Rc4 47. Rge1 d4
