  Honza Cervenka: If the result is correct here, then black was very merciful to white as after 41...Qh6 42.exf4 (what else?) 42...Qxh2+ 43.Ke1 Qg3+ he wins a piece with easily won game.
Feb-16-14  Gregor Samsa Mendel: So Keres Mista win?
Feb-17-14  Chessdreamer: The current game score wrong? 365chess database has 40.exf4 Qg7+ 41.Kh1 1/2-1/2.

It is possible that the last move was 41.Kh1 instead of 41.Kf2 but it doesn't change the evaluation of final position as won for black. What is white going to do after 41.Kh1 f3 with threat 42...Bxc3?

Feb-19-14  Chessdreamer: <Honza Cervenka> Perhaps I should have point out in my post the difference in White move 40 more clearly (not fxe6, but rather <40.exf4>).

My fault, I should have read your post more attentively but I have written my last comment late night after very long day. Well, after 40.exf4 Qg7+ 41.Kh1 draw makes much better sense at first glance.
