Being a safe piece up, spoiling it completely, turning the tides by means of a glorious Queen sac

Played otb in 2003 against a young dude, Elo 2268.

"Chess is and will always be a game of chance."



It's really funny that after 51.Re7, Stockfish recommends 51...Nc6 instead of 51...Kxh6 and a clearly winning pawn endgame.

PS: If a 2200+ player did drop a piece against me on move 9, my teammates would have accused me of witchcraft :) .
Then we must accuse Carlsen for his game against Jones.
Had I won quickly this trend-breaking Queen sac would have never emerged. ;)
