shadowfold: White is down a knight and a pawn, but seems to have a superior position in this game. Black's rook at c4 is pinned to the queen, and White has an unpleasant-seeming queen/rook/bishop combination targeting Black's king at g8. I see a number of possibilities for White. <39. ...
 
   Jul-15-09 P Scheeren vs Speelman, 1983 (replies)
 
shadowfold: I solved this one fairly quickly - I'm surprised that Black did not see the mate after <49. ...Bxg4??>. Speelman could have abandoned that unfortunate light-squared bishop and forestalled checkmate. Of course, White would still have had a winning advantage.

shadowfold: Disclaimer: I'm a genuine patzer - ...I've looked at this game for a while, and cannot seem to figure out why the players agreed to a draw. Any ideas?

shadowfold: 21. ...Ne2 falls to 22. Bxe2 ;)
