Dec-10-06 | | kevin86: Happy Birthday/Anniversary! A really exciting game. Two pieces and a rook are usually better than a queen,but in this case,the mate threats offer more than adequate compensation. |

 | | scormus: <Happy birthday CG> Interesting game! The very asymmetric position at ca. move 20 makes it difficult to evaluate. W would seem to have a clear edge but can easily go wrong. As already posted, 21 Rac1 is tempting but the R exchange helps B. In such positions it's probably best for W to keep things solid (a-pawn defended and the R's coupled. Be3 is then a natural move which keeps the onus on B to make something hapen. Be3 played a bit later but only after the W position was already weakened. Engine gives 21 Be3 as best but stil Bd2 OK if followed by 21 ... Rc2 22 Be3. 22 Rac1 was a mistake. |

 | | Richard Taylor: Good game. I got caught out by this line of the Scandinavian. After 3... Bg4 I went wrong I think that either 4. Bb5+ or 4. f3 are better than what I played... I think from memory that 4. f3 is best but 4. Be3 also looks o.k. Sad to remember that Alberto is not now with us all. |
