  OhioChessFan: You must be really proud.
Mar-24-16  apexin: Why not play on for a bit? doesnt look too drawish
Mar-25-16  activechess55: After 36 ... Re6, White is in total command of the position. One option is to play f3, g4, Re2, Rg2, g5 etc to increase the pressure on king side. It is surprising, White lets such a big advantage slip.
Mar-25-16  Ulhumbrus: If after 16 cxd4 White's d4 pawn becomes a target instead of a weapon, one alternative is 16 Nxd4
Mar-25-16  Jim Bartle: 50. Nxg7 looks like a real blunder. Maybe Anish forgot that his queen was unprotected so the following pin on the g file didn't work.
Mar-26-16  Howard: How about 50.Re5?
