[37.Ke3] 37...Rf5! 38.Rf1 Re5 39.Rf2 Re3 40.f4 [40.Kd2 Rd3+ 41.Kc1 Bf5] 40...gxf4 41.Rxf4 [41.gxf4 Kg6 42.Nc5 Bg4] 41...Re1+ 42.Kb2?!

Aug-19-09		PivotalAnorak: Actually there were 2 Belgian players named "Marc Lacrosse". The one who beat Anand was a friend of mine and he just passed away at the age of 48. RIP Marco.
