What a game. I have an interesting point to be made concerning it though.
During the game, it was kibitzed by a spectator that Little Goliath made a
serious error on move move 41 with 41. ... Rg8. The suggested move 41. ... b2
while interesting has a serious flaw and reveals that LG played Rg8 to play for
a win. You see, b2 allows a perpetual! Fritz 5.32 missed this and strongly
suggested b2 as well, but once Qxb8+ is played it sees the perp.
