Originally posted by Macpo Sorry! Thanks for remarking! you are definitely right! I missed that...
but here, what about 37. ... Nxh4 ?
it looks pretty ok for us, doesn't it?
That is probably ok but still a draw in my opinion... We would have to eliminate 37...Nxh4 38.Rxe7 Kg7? Since that is a dead draw instead 38...Kg8! And if 39.Kb3? (obvious looking move but a grave mistake.) we have 39...Ra5! 40.a4 Ng2! Which looks very good for us... Now that leaves 39.Re2 and 39.Re4 both of which look like they can probably draw...unless I have missed something these lines are still much better for white than the 37.Nxf5 lines.
I have been updating this game regularly in ChessBase since we started it.
Somehow the game has disappeared (and has been replaced with a new game I entered this morning), and with it all the variations we have been analysing and discussing along with all the other notes I made over the last few weeks (months?).

You should be able to restore your system back to an earlier saved state (which contains all of that analysis). Windows allows you to do that... I have done it - but have forgotten how

Thanks ptobler, I'll try that. I think I know how to do it.

Go for Ra4!!
(and to tomtom: maybe we cannot avoid draw... but still, getting a situation between draw and win for us was pretty hard! so that ain't so bad, is it?)

I'm not saying this is going to be a draw I'm saying that the ...Nf5 line looks drawish to me.
Instead 33...Kg8!

I guess I haven't been much of a help in a while. I'm sorry about that. I have been keeping myself fairly busy. I will try to give it a good looking over tomorrow.

What could keep you away from this!? This game is more important than your life!
I've looked at the position a little bit. I must confess that we are in my area of ignorance (the endgame). Luckily, I can vote for Ra4 without affecting anything. hehe I think this will probably work out to a draw. Tomorrow, I will send Ra4 unless something changes overnight.
