Aug-15-12  brankat: A fine game by Gligoric! A very pretty final combo (30. Rxd5) followed up by a brilliant <32. Rc1>!! And still no kibitzing? Well, that's a shame.

  Oginschile: Very pretty indeed.
Aug-16-12  RookFile: The final position is beautiful.
Aug-16-12  brankat: <Rook File> It is indeed.

My guess is Ljubojevic didn't see <32. Rc1>, and probably thought that <31...Qc5> would defend the position.

Another possibility (less flashy):

1. Rxd5 Rh8 2. Qxb4+ Kg8 3. Rd6
and again Black is lost (3 pawns down + a shattered position).
