    Cool zugzwang. He pretty much walked into that one.

    8.Bxd5   Was there some reason you didn't want the pawn?

    19.Rxf6   Why did you move the Queen before capturing? That was easily the game winner there.

    Rare win ???? ...or blunder by Black. Play ( 37 )....Bd6 instead of Bc7...and if Kxa7...then Kc7 for Black holding that position. Draw

    There were other blunders, as the first posters mentioned. Obviously winning from a dead drawn position is impossible without one party making a mistake.

    This time however the mistake itself seems rather intersting.
