I reckon the rot set in slightly earlier with this move.
c5 is pretty useless the line played gifts white a passed centre pawn 
with a very good chance of creating a passed pawn pair which sup****te 
dby his king are almost indestructible. Developing Rad8 seems safest here.

This is also a very dubious move. The queens pawn is extremely dangerous 
and 26. ... g5 is about the least bad reply if 27. exf5  then Rxd5 so 
now white has to play a lot harder to make progress (he is still winning 
with best play tho). But a small slip up and the game is equalised.

You really need to find a couple of friendly local club level chess 
players. Your engine is now stronger than you at chess.

Shredder is quite amusing in this game around move 33 when the mate 
comes inside its event horizon and it starts rook sacrifices to delay 
the inevitable. It is generally the first hint you get that an attack is 
going to work that the engine starts sacrficing serious material for no 
gain.

I think the move before this 19. ... c5 set up the position where a 
passed pawn pair was possible for white. What amazes me is that 
TuringEngine for all its other faults and slowness found a way to 
exploit it!

Sanny would be well advised to buy a copy of Fritz8 currently £12 on 
Amazon and try playing rated games against that engine to see how it 
really fares against a roughly clibrated opponent. The CB package also 
includes a couple of weaker engines Crafty19 and Comet6B which might be 
more suitable. My guess is about ELO 1900 +/- 100
