Mar-08-03		Rookpawn: Maybe Black could have tried 40... Rc1.

Aug-06-03		PinkPanther: Ummmm, how exactly is this a draw?

Aug-06-03		francescog: Black's pawns are difficult to defend, the black rook can't lose too much time because of the threat of the mate (pushing forward the white king to block f7 and h7) and mating with the rook. But this will happen only if black let it happen, and so I think it's draw =)

Aug-11-03		AdrianP: 42 Rxe6 followed by any black move... then Re8+ and white either keeps checking on e8 and e7 or if black brings the king over to f7, the pawn queens and white is left with Q against Rx3ps which should, at least, draw for white?

Aug-13-12		Cemoblanca: Great Knight moves in this 1! Very well played! :0)
