28.Qxd5? Re1+!

 
28... Rxd2 29. Qxd2 Qd7 30. c6 Qd6 31. Qd4 Qa3
Here I offered a draw which endali declined.

 
32. Re1 Qxa2 33. Qe5
I expected 33.Ra1.I worked out reams of lines against it,but I will post that another day.

 
33... Qa3 34. Qxc7
Here endali offered a draw which I accepted.However there is still a lot of play in this position.Black has a weakness on the back rank and the c6-pawn might be hard to stop.However White has to be careful not to allow perpetual check.I also worked lines out for this,but that I will post later.All in all it was a very exciting game.
