May-25-04		Honza Cervenka: Interesting game, which finished sadly for Dobias. He played the game for long time excellently and could have won it. For example, after 39.Rxb6 Rc1+ 40.Be1 Rd1 41.Qe2 Qe4 42.Rd6 white wins without any difficulties. Finally Dobias lost it as he overlooked mate in 3 (45...Qf2+ 46.Kh1 Qf1+ 47.Ng1 Nf2#). After 45.Rxd3 Ne3 46.Rxe3 Qxe3+ 47.Bf2 white hardly can lose the ending.
