More interesting is what Searcher missed to finish off PM after the Qc8 mistake, namely a nice shot at move 36 : [D]2q1kr2/3brp2/3R3Q/4p3/Np1b4/1P4P1/2PRB2P/2K5 w - - 0 1 Here 36. R2xd4 ed 37. Nb6 + - is a pretty and logical finisher . This one _should_ be solvable for some of the better engines even at Blitz time controls and looks like a good tactical test. Cheers. pete
