Sep-12-04		patzer2: Instead of 33. Rf3?? Qg6+! (or 33...Qc2+! ), White appears to have drawing chances with 33. Kg1!? Play per Fritz 8 could continue 33.Kg1!? Bd4+ 34. Nxd4 Qxd4+ 35. Rf2 Qxc4 36. Rd1 Qxa2 37.Kh2 Qa4 38. Re1 Qd4 39. Rg2 Qf4+ 40. Kh1 Qf8 41. Re6 a5 42. Kg1 c4 43. Rge2 Qg7+ 44. Kh2 Qd4 45. Rg2 Qf4+ 46. Kg1 Qc1+ 47. Kh2 h5 48. Re8+ Kh7 49. Re7+ Kh6 50. Re6+ = (0.00 @ 19/19 depth & 1423kN/s). Perhaps Black can do better than this draw by perpetual check. However, It would seem that with two active rooks against the lone Queen, White has drawing chances -- even with a two pawn deficit.

Sep-12-04		kevin86: Funny,with all those sacs,black is up material as white is punished after 35 xf6?? xb2+ catching a rook
