  Honza Cervenka: Very instructive game. Kavalek's 10...Bxc3 gave a small but persistent positional advantage to Keres who tranformed it gradually to a won ending B vs N. In final position black has no move. If 59...Kc6, then 60.e5 fxe5 61.g5 hxg5 62.Bf5! (immediate 62.h6 is less precise for 62...Ne4 63.h7 Nd6+ and Nf7) with following h6-h7-h8=Q wins easily.

  Gypsy: A crucial tactical motive of the ending is 35...Nc6 37.Kc3 Nxa5? 38.Bf3!... and the knight falls. Thus Black never suceeds in trading the a-pawns.
