Oct-08-06  ToTheDeath: Nice game. 13... Nh5 was a bad error which opened the way for a decisive combination.

Black resigned because of 22... Kxf8 23. Qf3+ Kg7 24. Ne8+

Mar-18-09  weary willy: Haven't checked this properly - but doesn't 22...Kxf8 23 Qf3+ Kg7 24 Qc3+ force mate?!
Jul-15-11  number 23 NBer: Yes, it does. Black can throw the bishop in the way, but that would just postpone 24... ♘f6 25 ♕xf6# or 24... ♔f8 25 ♕h8# by one move.
