Dec-07-06		Hot Logic: What about 24.Nxh6? 24...gxh6 25.Qxf6 seems good for white 24...Kf8/h8 25.Ng4 with option for Nxf6 also seems good for white.

Dec-07-06		Cyphelium: <Hot Logic> She probably didn't like 24. xh6+ f8 25. g4 e1+ 26. xe1 xe1+ 27. h2 d2. It looks dangerous, but it seems black has to take the perpetual check after 28. f4 f1+ etc. Perhaps she saw this and chose another variation to avoid black taking the draw.

Dec-07-06		Hot Logic: <Cyphelium> I think you are right, I saw the Re1+ line up to 27.Kh2 but missed the threats behind 27...Nd2. That does indeed seem to force a perpetual check. Thanks for the reply. I will try to look deeper in the future.
