The only alternative is Ke1, after which I get fast:

   833933   4.019  Mat18 13.  108...Ne3 109.Bxe3 Kxe3 {EGTB} 110.Rd8! Rg2
                              111.Kd1! Bd3!! 112.Re8+ Be4!! 113.Kc1! Rc2+!!
                              114.Kd1! Rc5 115.Re7! Rg5 116.Rxe4+ Kxe4!!
                              117.Kc2! Rc5+ 118.Kd2 Rc6 119.Ke2! Rc2+!
                              120.Kd1! Ra2 121.Ke1 Kd3! 122.Kf1! Ke3!
                              123.Kg1! Kf3! 124.Kh1! Kg3! 125.Kg1 Ra1#! {500}

The position is just lost. While rook + minor piece vs. rook is drawish; if you
add a minor piece to each side, it is usually winning for the stronger side (I
learned this from this forum ...).

My engine evaluates it wrong statically until now (it does not happen often in
games). But your message refreshed my memory, and I hope I will fix it soon :-)

Dieter
