  Flemming: Very comforting to see that a six-time champion of Iceland, GM who came close to 2600, could make a draw of this. I am not ironic. The fork with 36. Nc6 had to be possible if I am not blind, and later with three extra pawns it was miracle not to win. Not that I claim I would have won, I can easily identify myself with Olafsson here.
