Jan-05-19  utssb: This is one of the more human and thematic games I've seen from the match. 29.Rh7 is a nice, classic idea.
Jan-06-19  RKnight: In the final position, if 71...Ra7 it is curtains for black, but if 71...Na7 it is less clear, e.g., 71...Na7 72. Qe2 Qxc3+ 73. Qb2 and exchanging Q's. Perhaps the silicon minds found a way to force a pawn to queen in several moves. Am I missing something?
Jan-09-19  tvelichkov: @RKnight, yes white can sacrifice the rook on d8 in order to get a queen.
