| This game has gotten out of control. White may still be better, but deFirmian has got to be just looking for a draw. Now 33 ... Kd7 is something to consider. Objectively best may be 33 ... Qxd6 34 Qh8+ Ke7 35 Qxa8 Qxb4 and Black cannot win. If 33 ... Kd7 34 Bxe5 is quite nice for White. (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.) |   |
