Jun-12-09		luzhin: There is a fantastic finish if Inarkiev had played 38.cxd3. Rublevsky then plays 38...Rc1+ 39.Kh2 Qc7! 40.Kg3(only move!) Rf1! and after 41.Rc2 Qb8 42.Kh4 Rxf5 White is defenceless. At this point my silicon friend continues: 43.Qc1 g5+ 44.Kg3 Nc4+ 45.Kg4 Rf4+ 46.Kg3 Rf1+ 47.Kg4 Qc8+ 48.Kg3 Qc7+ 49.Kg4 h5+ 50.Kxh5 Qh7+ 51.Kg4 Qh4 mate!
