  Phony Benoni: If you're going to wait 54 moves to play ...e5, at least make it count!
Dec-03-15  kilurah: 28... Bf6 was a brilliant move (followed by 29. Qg6) to open g side. A nice pawn sac.
Dec-03-15  paavoh: A beautiful finish, I must say. 54.- e5 and the Queen will be lost.
Dec-03-15  Imran Iskandar: Everything seemed fine for White, until the White king started to be attacked from all sides.
Dec-03-15  kevin86: When white takes the rook (perforce), his queen will be skewered! A whack on the knuckles from the Nun(n).
Dec-03-15  Gilmoy: <Phony Benoni> He's just playing the game with <all> of his pawns
Dec-03-15  indomega: <kevin86> There are a couple of lines for this...

1. 54.Kxe4...Qxg2 55.K any...Qxb7
White won the exchange but lost his queen!

2. 54.Qxe4??...e5+!! 55.Qxe5...Bxe5 56.Kxe5...Qxg2
analyze calculation: mate in 20 for black
