Mar-09-06		mathematician: is this game correctly input? Because i think white could have chances for a win!in the end.Anyways how could ivanchuk drop the Exchange?

Mar-09-06		Kelvieto: I must agree with <mathematician>, white looks better. Maybe White was low on time so he decided to take the draw? Btw, shouldn't 26..Qc3 win or perhaps gain perpetual?

Mar-09-06		Kelvieto: Yes,27. Qb8 Qa1+ 28. Kc2 Qc3+ 29.Kb1 Qa1+ etc
