  Honza Cervenka: 19.g4 was a mistake which could have been refuted by 19...Nxe5! as 20.Rxf5? is not possible for 20...Qxf5 21.gxf5 Nf3+ and other moves like 20.dxe5 Qg6 or 20.Rxe5 Rxe5 21.dxe5 Qg6 or 20.gxf5 Nc4 leave white with bad position and material disadvantage. But instead of that black blundered by playing 19...Qd8?? and only white's another mistake (21.Rxf7?) got him back into the game. White continued with not the most accurate moves (22.Ref1, 23.Qf2+ Kg8 24.Bc5, 24.Re4 and 26.Kf2 Nxd4 27.Bb2 would have been better than text moves) and black after an elegant simplification won in the ending. Still without white's help by 36.h5?? his task could have been much more difficult.
