Poisonpawns: I am Restarting my "Candidates matches" collection.Here is the first game of their 1993 match.The winner would face Kasparov. This game, although a draw was very exciting.Both player missed wins or huge advantages.Briefly my notes:
Simply 29.Qxa4 gives white a nice adv,can anyone find a refutation?

click for larger view black is almost forced to give up the exchange. 37.Qg3? is a major blunder and Timman should lose.Sometimes being better in a game for awhile causes a player to lose his/her objectivity.
Timman misses a chance to force a draw with a Queen sacrifice.
