Aug-13-05  SnoopDogg: Wow what I love about this game is how Flohr rolls over White positionally then works out all the tactics at the end to make the score 0-1.
Feb-23-17  TheFocus: 13.Bh4? allowed Flohr to begin to take White apart on the Queenside and push through his heavy pieces and forcing the sacrifice of White's Queen.

The sac didn't work.

  Honza Cervenka: 34.Bf4 was a blunder. Instead of that quiet 34.Kh2! could have been a cold shower for black. After 34...Qe1 or 34...Qb2 white Rook simply takes the Pawn on d6 and then white pieces invade on the 7th rank with deadly effect.

Also 30.Rd5! with idea 30...Qxh4 31.g3 trapping the Queen would be an ugly surprise for black. Of course, he can play 30...f5 or 30...g5 but it doesn't look much good for him anyway.
