Apr-26-22  AnotherNN: 39.Qd4 is a Draw?!

What if 39. ... Qxb 40.Qe4+ f5; then what?

  PawnSac: 39. Qd4 Qxc3 40. Qe4+ f5 ;

41. Qxf5+ Kh8 [if Kg8 Qe6+ followed by Qxa2 wins] 42. Qf8+ Kh7 43. Qf5+ Kh8 =

Black can't answer Qf5+ with ..g6 44. else Qf7+ and again, white picks up the knight and wins.

Jul-07-22  Atking: After 38.Bd2 White has a clear advantage if not already a winning one. For example 38...Qc2 39.BxN QxB+ 40.Kh2 Qc7+ 41.g3 Qc6 42.a5 Qf3 43.Qb1+ Kg8 44.Qf1 Qc6 45.e4!
