40. Qe4xg6+ Full Game Score ... Previous Move ... Next Move |
White could play the immediate 40. Qxe5+ Qxe5 41. Nf7+, winning the piece, but he maximizes his winning chances by first winning the g-pawn. With such reduced material, little points like this can mean the difference between winning and drawing. |
