Sep-30-05		Chnebelgrind: 20. Rxe2 Rxa4 21. Rxa4 Rc1+ and mate or 21.Rd1 Rxd4 22. Rxd4 Rxd4 23.Rc1+ and mate with the next move

Sep-30-05		aw1988: Rxe2! Rxa4?? Rae1

Oct-01-05		likestofork: 20 Rxe2? Rxa4! 21 Rae1 Rxd4, and while admittedly, my rook and pawn endings oftentimes suck, I'm still willing to take the side that'll get a couple of rooks on the opponent's seventh rank first. Hint: that would be black.

Oct-01-05		Chnebelgrind: thanks likestofork!
