Seems to me that the move 46. Rg6, with the intention of manoevering the Rook to g5 (after playing the pawn to h4), would have threatened to create, at worst, 2 connected pawns for White, one of which would be passed. (The other option would be to allow White to take the h-pawn without compensation.) Too late now.


Why did White find it necessary to travel all the way around the board to position his Rook in the passive role of preventing the promotion of the d-pawn ?

white already missed a clear win earler which I pointed out after the lemon Ra6 by black. The analysis is posted in an earlier thread.
