  HeMateMe: The exchanges at the end were unfavorable to Bulgaria's board one.
Sep-02-12  MrSpock: Rock end games are always challenging:
55. ... Ra8?
With Ra7 or Ra6 White still have a chance to draw.
Sep-06-12  Ulhumbrus: White maintains his advantage in space throughout the middle-game and Black's d pawn falls in the end even after he has managed the advance ...d5
Sep-11-12  SONAWANE NIMISH: I think the N on d5 was deadliest.
