| kentaurus: Can someone explain why black played 35...a5 instead of going after bishop with the rook 35...Rb7?. It seems to me that if white wants to keep control with the bishop over the e7 square, there is nothing else but repeating the moves. Or I'm I wrong (as usually)? |

| |
| kentaurus: This one was easy even for my standards (eternal beginner). But looking at the previous move I didn't find the continuation after 36. ...Kd7. I'm glad that the engine analysis didn't proved me being stupid. |
