[D]2r1r3/pp3nkp/1q1p2p1/3P4/3NNP2/6Pb/PP1Q4/4RR1K w - - 0 25

The game turned out to be Botvinnik-Suttles, Belgrade 1969. The tempting  25.f5?
is a mistake, in view of 25...Re4! In the game there followed 25.Rf3? Rc4
26.Rd3, and now instead of 26...Qb4?! 27.b3 Qd2 28.Rd2 Qc7 29.Rde2 Black could
have equalized completely with 26...Bf5! 27.Nf5+ gf5 28.Rb3 Qc7. But White
missed a winning line (pointed out by Tringov):

25.b3!! Bf1 26.Qb2 Kf8 27.Ne6+ Re6 28.de6...Botwinnik himself [wrote]...'my old
"illness" - weak combinational vision - was to blame'.

How many programs find b3!!
