  Honza Cervenka: Quite interesting game with somewhat strange finish. 30.Qf2 is clearly bad move as 30...Rd1+ 31.Rxd1 a1=Q wins immediately. According to chessbase.com's database white's last move was not 30.Qf2 but 30.Qe2. Of course, it is not a significant improvement because black can win there too thanks to weak back rank playing 30...Nxd6 31.cxd6 Rb5 32.Qf1 (or 32.Qd3 Rb1+ 33.Rxb1 a1=Q etc.) 32...Rab8! 33.Qc4+ (what else?) 33...Kh8 34.Qxa2 (after 34.Rg1 black can play 34...a1=Q 35.Rxa1 Rb1+ ) 34...Rb2 and the Queen cannot retreat for Rb1+.

  Honza Cervenka: 30.h3 or 30.Kg1 was possible.
