59. Nc4
|
Nc4 - novel way of preventing the R taking! |

59... dxc4 60. Rxe4+ Kd7 61. h6 c3
|
c3, another attempt! |

|
|
|
62. h7
|
It was probably wisest to get the B to a3, so it could stop the pawn. |

|
|
|
62... Rh3 63. Kg6 Kc6
|
Black realises that White's Rook can stop his pawn, so tries to get the king in. |

|
|
|
64. Kg7 Kd5 65. Re5+ Kc4 66. Rh5
|
Rh5! If RxR, gxR and after c2 the B can stop the pawn queening by going to a3. |

|
|
|
66... c2
|
c2! The only hope. It probably still loses. |

|
|
|
67. Rxh3 c1=Q 68. h8=Q Qg5+
|
Check until you can check no more! |

69. Kf7 Qd5+ 70. Kg6 Qe6+ 71. Kh5 Qf7+ 72. Kg5 Qd5+ 73. Qe5 Qg8+ 74. Kf4 Qf7+ 75. Ke3

Black has no checks, but... |

Qc2 !! If the King takes, it is stalemate. |
