>>I don't see the point of 25...Rf8 26.Re1 Qe6. This may be an issue of >>evaluation. Junior non-chalantly plays 27.a4 and evaluates it +0.7 for >>white. At one point it jumps up with 27.e5 but then abandons it. This is >>a breathtaking line: 27.e5!? Qxf5 28.exf6+ Kf7 29.Re7+ Kg6 30.Rxg7+ Kh5 >>31.h3. Who wins now ? I have no idea. > >Actually Black wins in this line. Rebel 9 also likes 27 e5, but in the >final position after 31 h3 Black wins after 31 ... Qf2+ 32 Kh1 Qf1+ >33 Kh2 Ne5. I have to correct this. Looking a bit longer with Rebel it turns out that this last variation is a forced draw: 33 ... Ne5 34 Bd2!! Rxd2 35 Rxh7+ Kg5 36 Qg7+ Kf5 37 Rh5+ Ke4 38 Qh7+ Kd4 39 Qa7+ with a perpetual check. So 27 e5!? is playable, but leads to a draw. So 27 a4 might be White's best option. Regards, Jeroen
