Oct-10-03		AgentRgent: With two passed pawns white should have this game won. 55. Rb2 & 56. Rb8 seem to be a dubious attempt to force a Rook exchange. 55. Rd2, forcing the queen away from the pawn, seems better. White will win if the rooks came off, but white can also win with them on. I've been guilty of trying to force exchanges myself, and costing myself the game because of it.
