Feb-07-05		shor: how does white win? or is it based on material advantage?

Feb-07-05		keypusher: Looks like white can play Qg6 and Be3, after which there is no defense to Bxh6 gh Qxh6+.

Aug-12-07		sanyas: White developed a strong advantage in the middlegame, but then suddenly lost the thread of it. I think I have found the culprit. He should play 34.Be4 Bf7 35.Rd3 Nd7 36.b4 Nf8 37.Bxh6 winning. 'Other moves by Black only lose differently'.
