okiesooner: After 24. Ne7+ Qxe7 25. Rxe6 Qxe6 26. Qxh7 Kf8 27. Rf3+ seems to win immediately also. If 27...Qf7 28 Rxf7#. If 27...Qf6 28 Rxf6#. Or if 27...Qf5 28. gxf5 followed by 29. fxg6# (28...gxf5 29 Rxf5#). If 27...Qf5 28. gxf5 Re7 29. fxg6+ Re7 30. Rf7 and Black must give up his Rook to

okiesooner: Black appears to be lost after 29 Be7. If 29…Rxg3 30. Bxf6+ Kg8 (30…Rg7 31. Qg3 Qh6 32. Qb8+ forces mate) 31. Qxg3+ Kf8 (31…Qg6 32. Qb8+ Be8 33. Qxe8#) 32. Qb8+ Be8 33. Qd6+ Kg8 34. Qe7 Qd1+ 35. Kh2 Qd7 36. Qe5 forces mate.

okiesooner: 29. Nb4 seems to be a blunder. Black should win after 29...Qxc8 30. Rxc8 Rxb4. Fortunately for White, Black tried to repeat moves and White won after 31. Rxc5.

okiesooner: White secures the win with 57. Bd5! After 57...c3 58. Bb3 White protects his Pawn, and eventually he will win both Black Pawns. Black draws after 57. a5? c3 58. Be4+ Kxe4 59. a6 c2 or 59. Ke2 Kd5.

okiesooner: Black may be lost after 38. Nc3. If 38...Ne7 39. Nb5+ wins the Pawn on a7. If 38...a6 39. Nd5 is followed by 40. Nf6. Here if 39...Ke6 40. Nc7+ also winning the a-Pawn.

okiesooner: I believe that White draws after 17…Qg3 18. Qxf7+. If 18…Kc8 19. Qg8+ Kb7 20. Qb3+ Qxb3 21.axb3 Bxd1 and White has a significant material advantage. Otherwise White draws by perpetual check.

okiesooner: Can Black draw with 24...Re8 25. Rxe8+ Rxe8 26. Qxf7 Rf8 27. Qe7 Qf6? Here if 28. Qxh7 Qf3+ 29. Kb3 Qb6+ 30. Ka3 Qa6+ forcing a draw by perpetual check. If 30. Kc2 Rf2+ wins the Rook on a1 and while White may have a draw by perpetual check, otherwise Black wins. If 28. Qxf6 Rxf6 ...

okiesooner: Instead of 28. c7??, what about 28. Kf2? Black must now move his Knight to stop White from queening his Pawn. If 28...Nd5 29. Bxf3 Bxf3 30. Kxf3 or 29...Bh3 30. Bxd5+ exd5 31. Kf3 winning the d-Pawn. If 28...Nd3+ 29. Ke2 f2 30. c7 f1Q 31. c8Q+ and because White has queened his ...
