  Honza Cervenka: 40.Qh3 would have been a little bit better as the Rook is hanging after 40...Bxd5. Of course then 40...Rxg2+ 41.Nxg2 Bxd5 also would have given a clear advantage to the Black.
Jan-23-06  Timothy Glenn Forney: Maybe he was worried about 40...♕xf4.I guess there's no way to protect both the ♘ and the ♗.This is a solid game by Golombek.
Jan-23-06  hippatxu: White has perpetual with 51.Rg7+
Jan-24-06  Timothy Glenn Forney: Great catch.Yes for 51.♖g7+ ♔h6? 52.♘g8#.
Feb-05-12  sfm: <hippatxu: White has perpetual with 51.Rg7+> Well spotted, but it is much more likely that the game actually went 50.-,Qf4+ and not 50.-,Qe3??, to which 51.Kg2?? would be a senseless blunder in response.
