  Check It Out: Nice game. 29...Bxh3+ and 36.. Bd4, for me these were unexpected bishop sacs.

  An Englishman: Good Evening: Just another case of tripled pawns overwhelming the extra piece. Jesting of course, but still, the paralysis Black induced after the pseudo-sacrifice 39...Rb2 looks impressive.

  Teyss: Hi perfidious,
There's no shame in losing to the great Bisguier, actually such a game is quite honourable.

In the present game, whilst the first Bishop sac 29...Bxh3+ is highly speculative, the second one 36...Bd4 is quite straightforward and wins a Pawn in both variations: the game line and 37.cxd4 exd4 38.Kg2 dxe3 39.Kf3

Advantage of this line vs the game: the Pe3 is weak. Inconvenient: Black's Qside Pawns are scarier. Maybe White thought tripled Pawns were easier to handle.

  offramp: I find this game long-winded and tedious. It goes on and on and on.

Both protagonists desperately require a huge boot👢 in their respective groins⚽⚽.

Sadly, both players are deceased💔😢😭.
