  Honza Cervenka: Capa had to be very happy with draw here. After 23.Bxh4 Nh5 24.g6 black is practically forced to give up an Exchange by 24...fxg6, as 24...f6 25.e3 turns the Knight on h5 into the dead wood, and then the position is objectively lost for black. But even in final position white was still a bit better due to Bishop pair, and he could have continued to play without much risk for himself.
Feb-23-16  ZonszeinP: Like say, something like Rd1 intending Bd7...
If .....Be5 then B takes B and R goes to d7
I prefer white
But I guess white should pay attention to f2 and even a possible Ng3!? In some cases ....
