  GrahamClayton: Black's 15th move is spectacular, placing the Bishop en prise for 2 different captures which can't be accepted, eg

16. Rg4 Qd1#

  wwall: Black should have won this game.

Instead of 33.Qe4?, White should have played 33.Qe7.

After 37.Be2, Black should win after the stronger 37...Rf2, controlling the 7th rank and threatening ...Rb1+.

After 47.Be6 (threatening 48.Rh3 mate), Black should play 48...Kh8, winning.

49...Rxe6? throws the win away and now the position is a draw. 49...Kh8! should win. If White plays 50.Rh3+ Rh7 should win. Black can later play ...a5 or ...Rc2 and win.

Mar-12-19  Straclonoor: <wwall: Black should have won this game.> Of course!
