The low point

Move 27

The engine had this as lost outright after g4. 33 moves later, arg17 won.

Not everything was clean

The one slip

22...♕c1+ cost 5.7 pawns. ♕b2 would have held it.

That put the queen on c1, where the rook on a1 covers it. 23.♖xc1 just takes it.

The point: 23.♖dd1 ♕xb5 24.♖db1 ♕a6
