📘 28.Bh2?
Yuffa missed his opportunity. He could have obtained a huge advantage by playing:
(28.B×h5! Qd7 29.Bg4 +-)
(28.B×h5! R×h5?? 29.Qa8+ Mate in 3 Moves)

(if 28...kg7 or 28...Kh6 the black king will soon be checkmated)

Strangely enough, Black gets compensation with the following: 1. White's disfigured, doubled f-pawns and isolated h-pawn. 2. When White takes the exchange on f8, his bishop has trouble returning, since Be7 is met by ... f5-f6!, continuing to imprison it (a theme Short was, unfortunately, unable to evade anyway later in the game!) 3. White's rooks just don't work well in the resulting position. It seems Black stands equal at a minimum after the acceptance.
