Jul-12-11  ozmikey: Unbelievable that White played on for ten more moves after the exchange of queens against a world-class grandmaster! Now THAT is bloody-mindedness.

  perfidious: Trifunovic could also have played 104.h7+ to end it three moves sooner, but presumably he was enjoying himself.
Jul-13-11  ozmikey: Another odd thing I just noticed about this game: Black could have claimed a draw at move 86. Why didn't he?

Whatever the story behind the end of this game, 95...h5! is a very clever way to force the draw.
