 | | xthred: Would 19...Nf5 have given black a chance? |
 |

 | | Shams: <xthred> Nope-- 20.Qh5 would instantly settle. |
 |
| Jan-16-12 | | LoveThatJoker: Great tactics in this game by White.

 | | FSR: An amazing game <and> an early candidate for Worst Pun. |
 |
| Jan-16-12 | | Penguincw: It's about time this game received a pun. |

| Jan-16-12 | | ferri1234: what happens if 25 ....Kf8?? |
 |

 | | Phony Benoni: <ferri1234> After <25...Kf8>: click for larger viewMy guess would be 26.dxe6, when Black can hardly expect to survive the pressure on f7. |
 |
| Jan-16-12 | | cydmd: <ferri1234>, White simply puts more pressure with 26.dxe6
And there's no defense against 27.Rxf7+.
If 26... Rg8 then 27.Rxf7+ Nxf7 28.Rxf7+ Ke8 (28... Qxf7 29.Qxf7#) 29.Qxg8# |
 |
| Jan-16-12 | | RestlessLife: fantastic play by white. |

 | | Gilmoy: <Anatoly21: 18.Rf6!! (Two pieces down and moving the rook? Amazing move!)> White did net a pawn, so it's a 5-point "sac" offer, similar to a Rf6 to deflect g7 (or Bg7) outright. The structural pattern is to blockade f7: it (a) cuts the board in half; (b) prevents f5 defending h7. Tal vs Leonov, 1949 (a,b) Fischer vs Benko, 1963 (b) Anand vs Bareev, 1993 (a) Rare but known: White is "only" in the Tal/Fischer/Anand class :) |

| Jan-16-12 | | cludi: My analysis of this great game
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4pe... |
 |
| Jan-16-12 | | rudiment: 16. Bxd6 ... 17. e5 was a splendid attack. Not sure about all the superlatives being bandied around about this game but it is compelling to watch the perfect exercise of control from Bxd6 onwards. |
 |
| Jan-16-12 | | drpoundsign: I LIKE the bishop and queen sacs. Good mating net. No mathematical endgames (which give me a headache) |
 |
| Jan-16-12 | | erniecohen: Actually, I think Black was fine until 15... h5. After 15...e5, he seems to be relatively safe. |
 |
Jan-16-12
 | | Shams: <erniecohen> 15...e5 16.dxe5 and what's your idea, out of curiosity? |
 |
Jan-17-12
 | | shivasuri4: <Shams>,that should be followed with 16...dxe5.17.Bxe5 is not good because of 17..Ng4 exploiting the e3 weakness. |
 |
Jan-17-12
 | | Shams: <shivasuri4> Thanks, it's obvious now that White should not take on e5 even once. |
 |
| Jan-17-12 | | rilkefan: Interestingly, stockfish likes 16.Nf4 (+1.6) at a depth of 24 (1 Gnode), though given the shifting evaluation at less depth I should let it think a lot longer. I then played 16.Bxd6 and let it run 1 Gnode (a depth of 27) and it thinks black is better by -0.7. It's planning on 18.Nf4. I then played up to 18.Ng3. Here it's looking at a perpetual or a slight edge for white after 19.hxg3 f5 (1 Gnode, depth 27). After I played 19.Rf6 it soon (depth of 22) decided white had a sizable advantage (+1) - at 1.5 Gnode (depth 27) it thinks black should play 19...Bxc4 and exchange the white LSB, eval still fluctuating from 1 to 1.7. At 1.5 Gnode, a depth of 26 (as shown above, not enough at all in this game), it thinks 15...e5 is even, with a main line of 16.Be1 Nh5 17.Ng3 Nf4 18.Nf5 or 16.Nc1 Bxc4 17.de de 18.Qf3 Nd7 or 16.Rf5... After 16.de de 17.Bxe5 it seems to think ...Ng4 is even. Conclusion: this is a game needing more calculation time than I have patience for or human input above patzer level. |

 | | kevin86: The attack is SO strong,that even the queen is expendable. |

 | | Eduardo Bermudez: The moves 16, 19, and 25 are astonishing !! |

| May-08-13 | | Mudphudder: What about this continuation?
24.Qh7+ Kf8
25.Be4 Qc7
26.BxR
Would this have worked as well? |

This also wins quite easily. But 24. d5 is stronger. White goes for the throat and black cannot defend his king. |
