Feb-19-06  rubbermeetsroad: This is a magnificent game by
Magerramov! It often takes a great
game to defeat a great player.
Feb-22-06  Inf: well i dont see the winning line but im guessing that with 2 pawns on the king side should be ok since the black queen cant do much to prevent the pawns from advancing..
Feb-22-06  LoFarkas: What was 51. ... Nf7 about?
Feb-22-06  LoFarkas: Oh, ok. I noticed he had no other escape from the mating threat of Rh8. (Qd1+ g4 and no more checks)

White uncorks 50.Ng5+ Nxg5 51.Kh5!! If 50.Kh5 immediately, Black had ...Qd1+ 51.g4?? Qxd5+.

51....Nf7 is forced.
