| I.Carras: I have the feeling that they have made more than 50 moves without exchanging pieces nor moving pawns but ainīt sure.Would it be a draw? |

| Honza Cervenka: I don't see 50 moves without exchanging pieces and moving pawns in this game. 74...f6
107...h4
134...h3
154...Qxd3 |

| Jack21221: Even if they had, it is only a draw if it is claimed by one side or the other. |

| soberknight: Have you ever felt stupid for hitting the space bar 320 times without actually writing anything? Because that's what I just did in order to play through this yawner of a game. |

| offramp: Almost exactly like watching a disk defragment. |

| soberknight: I'm surprised you folks didn't know that hitting the spacebar moves the game forward, but that's okay. What's funny is that for me, I needed to use the keyboard because on my old-fashioned computer monitor, the board covers the whole height of the screen window, and the buttons below the scoresheet are off the screen. |

| Chess Classics: <soberknight> Hey, good idea, thanks! That makes my life so much easier. I guess I learned more from soberknight than from any of the 320 ply here. Regards,

| tTinker: This is the kind of ending I'm afraid of, you though a complex bishops of opposite with a lot of pawns did it. I guess bishop endings take longer because they can only hit half the squares. With knights, it appears more cut and dry but I could be wrong. |

| keypusher: It's actually a pretty interesting game...Salov's manuever of his king from the upper right to the lower left side of the board is quite something. Thanks, Soberknight. |

| ceebo: I would have played on with Kh2 hoping for c1Q stalemate :) |

| alexandrovm: it must be the 50 move rule, otherwise black wins this... |

| WhiteRook48: 161. Qxc3+??? I think this was a huge blunder on Short's part, why did he trade in the first place? |

| WhiteRook48: why wasn't the game Short? |
