Kibitzer's Corner
Jan-08-06  blingice: Anderton didn't make a good 2 R for a Q trade here.
Jan-13-06  MoonlitKnight: Actually, 24.Bg5 is a huge blunder, since 24...Nf4 just wins on the spot. White has the choice of giving away queen and knight for two rooks or allowing Nxg2. In both cases he is completely lost.

Black could have played Nf4 on the move before, forcing 24.Bxf4 exf4 25.Qxe8+ Rxe8 26.Rxe8+ Bf8, and after either Ne2 or Ne4, black plays Bc6, picking up the exchange with a won position. 23...f5 is also a very strong move, though, since the relatively best reply is 24.Qf1 Nf4 25.f3, after which white is positionally lost.
