Bleepbloop1: actually, @Skakalec gilmoy and wordfunph, I think the line goes more like 33.nf6+ kf8 34.qc8+ re8 35.qxc5+ re7 36.qc8+ re8 37.bb4+ with mate in two. |

Bleepbloop1: although i had seen 0-0 and 0-0-0! as potential solutions, I was intrigued by 12.Bb5?, then I realized black had qe6+! 13. kf1?! cxb2!! 14.rad1 Qxd1+ 15.Nxd1 b1=Q :D however, 13.kd1!? seems a bit stronger for white, probably also winning. Very interesting position! |

Bleepbloop1: @mateo: 13.qd2? re8! is even simpler, it seems to me. After say 14.c3 Rxe5 15.cxd4 rxe4+ white's position looks like a *very* perverse joke-- W probably has to give back the Q to avoid getting mated. anyways, this is one amazing game, definitely among my top 7 for 2006 |

Bleepbloop1: Hello world! (first post on the site!)
@Tommy: Cute idea! I think, however, that black can play 11...Bxb4 12.e6 Nc3! Funnily enough, though, this seems to be the only way to play for black. I was initially looking at 11...Bb6 12.f3 (your line) c5, but then there is 13.Nxf5! ... |
