If you mean ANY move after  26...Bg5 9as opposed to the next move), then
ChessMaster 6000 evealuates 31. Qc7 as a mistake. This is the analysis:

"Leads to 31 ... Qf4 32 Qc2 gxf3 33 h3 f2+ 34 Kf1 Qe3, which loses a pawn.
Better is Qe3, leading to 31 ... gxf3 32 Qxf3 Qxf3 33 gxf3 Rxf3 34 Ra7 Bh3 35
Ra8+ Kh7, which wins a queen and a pawn for a queen and two pawns. This was
white's only significant mistake, but white was still able to manage a draw."

A little odd considering White is loses an extra pawn is both cases. I guess the
position was such that it was good for whilte to force a queen trade?
