  plang: 11 g4 initiates some interesting complications which end up in blacks favor due to the weakness of whites king as well as his light squares. Speelman felt that the piece sacrifice 22..Nd4 was unneccessary and that Ree should have been content with his large positional advantage. If 30..Kh6 31 Rh8+..Kg7 32 Rh7+..Kg8 33 Qg6+..Kf8 34 Rh8 mate.
