Nov-20-08		A.G. Argent: Man, after 41...cxd5 which equalises in material as well as position and having same-same Bishops, this is an excellent dust-up, morphing into a first rate toe-to-toe, spit and blood, bare knuckler of an endgame. Very enjoyable. Bit of a gem, actually. O'Kelly's 83.Rf5+ is the fatal blow. If 83...Kg6, then 84.Rf4 Kh5 85.Rg4 and ain't much more Najdorf could do. The lonely White a2 pawn is rarin' to go, seeking fast track Queenness. Good chess.
