42... Qg8 43. Rxf6+ |
[?] Instead White could have tried again with 43.Qh4, and probably have had enough to secure the draw. After this, the advantage changes hands once more... | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
43... gxf6 44. g7+ |
There's nothing better, yet can this possibly lead anywhere? | ||||||
| | |||||||
|
44... Kf7 |
Now White's sole remaining pawn is a goner. | ||||||

45. Nde4 Rb6 46. Nd7 |
Maybe 46.Qh5ch kept White at least fighting on: 46...Kxg7 47.Ng3 Rb2ch (GK, though I'd probably go for 47...Qh7, forcing off the Queens). | ||||||

46... Rb2+ 47. Kg3 Qxg7+ 48. Qxg7+ Kxg7 |
Two knights versus rook and four: steep odds... | ||||||

49. Nexf6 |
[?] Hastens the end, but really White hasn't had the ghost of a chance since his 43rd move. | ||||||

49... d3 50. Nd5 d2 51. Ne3 Rb3 |
[0-1] Nothing will stop the d-pawn now. White resigned. An engrossing game, with all sorts of chances for both sides. To be fair to White, the strong attack he developed late in the game was enormously complicated, and not all easy to determine the best way to carry on. Check out the Qh8ch moves, as played, and in the analysis. Sometimes it was an excellent move, occasionally so-so, and at other times it was a bad move. It was the sort of game in which you could expect the odd inaccuracy even at the highest levels, Well done, both players! | ||||||
