Kibitzer's Corner
Jun-04-09  luzhin: 23.Re6! is pretty: after 23...f6 24.Rxe7 fxg5 25.Rxg7+ Kh8 26.Rg6+ and mate next.
Jun-04-09  luzhin: ...and if 23...fxe6 24.Qxe7 Rf7 25.Qd8+ Rf8 26.Qxd7 wins
Jun-04-09  Udit Narayan: How can a former US champion lose so convincingly against a fellow 2600 player? It is astonishing. However, excellent play from Naiditsch.
Jun-05-09  EdgeFor15: This looks like a game against weak computer. Black grabs an exchange and is happy with it giving an evaluation of about -2. But in few seconds it changes its mind and starts giving white advantage. First +2, then maybe +5, +8...
Jun-05-09  Bobsterman3000: I think they call this "castling into it." The g2 pawn was a big, fat, weak target with the black ds bishop so well-placed on c3 like a powerful gun turret.

I wonder if even 15. O-O-O would have been better. I don't have a board or engine to play it out here at work...

Jun-09-09  sandmanbrig: pretty sack!
