4tmac: think SF planned 36...gxh then finally saw Kh1 or Rg2 --- my single core fritz struggles with the complications (20+ ply) --- too fast time control |

4tmac: Polgar is rated much higher than either. Have you looked at Yifan's results over the past year or so. |

Oct-27-18 Petrosian vs Fischer, 1971 
|
4tmac: Looks like a fortress to me. White may have to be "proactive" to keep the Black King from getting in along the first rank. eg: 42.f4! gxf4 43.g5 fxg5 44.Nf3 Rxa6 45.Rxa6
Kxa6 46.Nxg5 Ba5 47.Nf3 Bc7 48.h3 Kb5 49.Nd2! Kb4 50.Kc2!....maybe.... [DIAGRAM] |
