  HeMateMe: I wonder why white played 30. h4. The game is a dead draw till she let her king side pawns get split up.
Apr-20-11  beenthere240: What's wrong with 35. Kg3 It looks as if white saw something and backed out. I'd have tried to keep blacks king out.
Apr-20-11  beenthere240: I suppose the problem with 35. Kg3 is that black can play Nb5, freezing white's knight and then there's the threat of N c3 and e4. But 35. Ke3 didn't work out so well either.
Apr-30-11  BLarsen1967: <HeMateMe> I agree that 30.h4 looks dubious,better seems 30.Nb3 - after 30..h5 31.Nc5 Nb5 32.Nd7 Kh7 33.Nf6+ it's,well,pretty equal
