eyalbd: Even before 43...♖xa6 Black is not forced to play 42.. ♖a2 at all. SF says 42.. h4! followed by 43.. ♔g5 (or 42.. ♔g5 followed by h4) is winning. For example: 42..♔g5 43. a6 h4 44. ♗d5 ♖a2 45. ♗c4 ♖a3 with zugzwang |

eyalbd: Short:

eyalbd: Many moves win.

Sep-12-19 Beliavsky vs M Cebalo, 1998 
|
eyalbd: Direct 28. ♖c3 doesn't work due to 28..d5 29. ed ♖xc3 30. d6+ ♕c4. After 28. ♗e6 ♔xe6 the defence d5 wouldn't work since e4xd5+ is a check! So white wins an exchange. |
