  marcusantoinerome: <chessgames.com> What happened to the rest of the game? The book Nigel Short: Chess Prodigy has more moves.

34. . Kxf8 35. Bg3 Nc7 36. Ra7 Rc8 37. Kf1 Ke7? 38. Nxe5 1-0

The kibitzes above make it appear that those moves used to be there, but somehow the game score was cut off.
