Cute and instructive. 58. b5 ♔e3 59. b6 f3 60. b7 f2 61. b8(♕) f1(♕) 62. ♕e5+ followed by trading queens and winning with the a-pawn.

Jan-20-09  WhiteRook48: and so Black had to play a lot of checks- and THAT succeeds. Adolf Anderssen played this game strangely.

  Honza Cervenka: 40...f2?? was a blunder, which could have been decisive but white threw away the win with 58.Kd1?? instead of winning 58.b5 with a line, where black promotes his f-Pawn into a new Queen but white can force its trade with elementary won Pawn ending, as <beatgiant> demonstrated almost twenty years ago. 40...Ke6 was correct. I don't like 11.dxc4 (11.Ng3 looks reasonable) and 12.Nh2 (12.Nd2 would have been more natural), as black got clear advantage after that but 18...Rd7? instead of energetic 18...d5! ∓ and 19...Bxe4? (still 19...d5 or 19...Bg7 were sufficient for keeping balance in the position) gave the advantage to white. 34.Rb3! would have been better and maybe 26.Rxd5 was worth of consideration.
