Very good game, and a fine attack. The real turning point was not 28...Nh3? (in fact it deserved a !!) but the move following (29...Ndf2?). With 29...Ne1!! - not a move that leaps to the eye exactly - Black would have retained fine winning chances. The thing about this game was that for so long I didn't really think Black had enough to do more than draw, and even that was only after hidden resources revealed themselves. And yet here he was, treading the narrow, winding path to victory... until - possibly bemused by the twists and turns - he stepped off it. Excellent game.
