| Winsome: IT was a lackluster game for Keres to say the least. Wonder what his comments were after the game? |

| acirce: The positional draw after 47. - Nxb2? 48. Nxb2 Bxb2 49. Kd2 Bxa3 50. Kc2 is quite extraordinary. Great game by both players. |

| jovack: I think it is worth mentioning that at move 47 there's an interesting situation. I very badly wanted to play Nxb2 for black, and I thought white made an error in playing a "good" move, instead of the "best". When I played it out, both kings are completely locked out from each other, without any minor pieces to cause any damage, no progress is possible for either side without losing the game. If white did not have his g pawn, who knows what could have happened, but as it stands, black was correct in realizing that the pawns had the middle completely covered and locked. |

| kevin86: How sad is it to play so well for 80 moves and then to die out at the end. |

| Ezzy: This game was from the 1967 Moscow supertournament won by the late great Leonid Stein. There were 4 world champions in the strong 18 man field, Tal, Petrosian, Smyslov and Spassky. |

| AnalyzeThis: It's hard to believe that Keres lost this, for the longest time he was the one who dominated the only open d file. |

| Sneaky: <a lackluster game for Keres to say the least. Wonder what his comments were after the game?> I think his comments were, "Leave me alone." |

| drukenknight: the endgame is analyzed in Dvoretsky's endgame book, pretty much jovack's comments from 10/7 are the point of Dvoretsky. It's one of my books somewhere. I'll try to find it... |
