  Phony Benoni: Possible database error: in the three volume set of Alekhine's games edited by Khalifman, the ending of this game is given as 35...Rxg3 36.hxg3 Rf8 37.Bg4 1-0

That certainly makes more sense than 35...Rf8 36.Rxa3, but is it correct?

  Maatalkko: Yes, it is correct. <My Best Games of Chess> by Alekhine, which I just bought, has that in there as the score for the game. The <cg.com> database should be changed.
Mar-01-08  MichAdams: No, the original was correct. Alekhine airbrushed Black's blunder from his book.
