path to victory. After: 30.e3! Bc5 31.Kf3!, the win is as clear as a sunny
sky. White's King is making a beeline to the b5-square, where the b6-pawn is
captured and the a-pawn is escorted to coronation. -- Seirawan} 30... Bc5 31.
h3 { This is a real groaner. I think the text throws away most of the winning
chances that were left. I was still wildly optimistic about White's chances
after 31.Kf3! One point is to trick the computer into playing an innocuous
move like: 31...Kg6? After which White plays: 32.e3!, and he is back in
business as his King goes to the b5-square. -- Seirawan} 31... f6 32. f3 Kg6
