  {Danger! Leads to 34 Qe3 Be5 35 Bxe5 Re7
   36 Qh6 Rxe5 37 dxe5 Qxe5 38 Rd1 Qe7,
   which wins a bishop and a pawn for a
   rook and a bishop. Much better is b5,
   leading to 34 Qe3 Kf8 35 Rf3 Rb7 36 Kg1,
   which does not result in any captures.}
34. Qe3
  {Seizes the open file.
   Not only am I seizing the open file, but I have two different attacks

   against the enemy King.}
34...Be5
  {Hangs the bishop. Leads to 35 dxe5 Kh7
   36 Qg5 Rd4 37 cxd4 Kg8 38 Qh6, which
   loses a rook and a bishop. Better is
   Kh7, leading to 35 Qe8 Qb8 36 Qxd7 Qg8
   37 Qxb7 Qe8 38 Qxa7 Kg8, which loses a
   rook and two pawns.
   
   Had the computer played something different then the text, and different
   then this analysis, this is what could have happened.}
