Aug-15-06		Honza Cervenka: <Kwesi: I wonder if 48.Nxg3 would win for white?> No, it would not. If 48.Nxg3, then 48...Rh2+ 49.Re2 (else Kxe8) 49...fxe2 50.Nxe2 Ke6 with probable draw. On the other hand it was definitely better than 48.Re1?? But the simpliest way to draw was 48.Nd6+ Kg7 (48...Kg6 49.Rg8+ Kh7 50.Rxg3 f2 51.Rf3 f1=Q 52.Rxf1 Rxf1 53.Nxb5 is won for white.) 49.Nf5+ Kf7 50.Nd6+ etc.
