I seem to rember that on the 50th move he made a move that would win the rook and he was given credit for winning because he "showed progress". I have always suspected that the reason this game is not available is because it was this technicality that allowed him to win and not an outright victory. I would sure like to be corrected on this "memory" of mine by a complete PGN of the game. Jim
