(rarely seen, four exclamation marks in a row! Anna, you are a chess-genius-in-the-making, I recon), Now white is forced to give perpetual check via 28.Nd6 or Nh6 in order to avoid checkmate Qg2 or Rxe1 (if 28.Rxf3) (BvR)} 28.Rxe8+ Rxe8 29.Rxe8+ Kxe8 30.Ne3! {White is safe and sound now. *Phew*} Kf8 31.Qf5 g4 32.Qxg4 {(White nearly played Nxg5 followed by mate in one.)} Qh6 33.Qxf3 Qg6 34.Nxd5 Nd7 35.Nf4 Qb1 36.Qd1 Ke7 37.Qc2 Qa1 38.Kg2 {Another strong and inventive game by Black that almost won the day spectacularly. A lucky escape for White. Good game.} {#r}
