Kibitzer's Corner
Dec-28-07  Gilmoy: 26..g5 looks like Black is immolating his own K. But he's already seen 29..Kg6! with three benefits: it's safe enough against White's remaining piece mix, clears h for deadly threats at h1, and even recovers his g-pawn.

After 31..Bxf4 32.Rxf4[] (32.gxf4 Rdh8 etc.) Qe5! majestically centralizes with a quiet triple-fork: Qa1+, Qd4+, and the e-pawn's advance. 33.c3 b6 would strand the White Q with no move that maintains defense of c3 (34.Qxa6 Qxc3 35.Qxb6+ Kxg5 looks even better for Black than the game).

White never answered the Qa1+ threat, and goes on a sad pawn-grab instead. 37.Ke1 Qc3+ 38.Kf2 e1=Q#.
