Position after 33... Nxd4

Previous

Pinning with 33 ... Rd5 34 Ke3 just gets White's king active. After Shaked's 33 ... Nxd4, 34 Rxd4 Ra5 is the most efficient drawing routine. (Have a question? Ask GM Rohde! Not all questions can be answered, but the Grandmaster will pick selected topics to cover live from e-mail received.)
