Yeah, that is a remarkable find.

Weird: Deep Fritz 11 doesn't find this move until depth 15. Deep Fritz 10 finds it in seconds.

Crikey - I mean Deep Fritz 11 doesn't find the move until depth 25.

Yes, that is straightforward, but what if I play 25. fxg7 f5!? I see white has good chances but it is still not defined.

I am analyzing blinfold, so I may be wrong, but... is the final position +3.50? after f7, Kd7, it looks like black contains the white passed pawns with Be6 -Ke7-Kf6. I have to say that white's h4-h5-h6 looks dangerous. Is is possible that Rybka's evaluation here is too speculative? There is more chances that I am missing a tactical shot tough. Can you analyze this final position to see what Rybka is really thinking? I still do not see a clear win.
