The game is over. Good job, team. |

Somewhat disappointed
Be3 was possible after 33. Pe5 fxe5 34. Bxe5 Rd5 35. Re6 Be3 just as well>. Me too |

Jan-15-14 | | kb2ct: BTW, the point of 33. e5 fxe5 34. Bxe5
Rd5 was that our c-pawn and our f-pawn could not be taken with his bishop becaise of mate and would have been immune 1. b3 e5 2. Bb2 Nc6 3. e3 Nf6 4. Bb5 Bd6 5. g4 a6 6. Bf1 h6 7. h3 Be7 8. Bg2 d5 9.

Jan-15-14 | | devere: <AylerKupp:>
To me our opponent acts as though he is tired of a game he has been slowly losing (he's been moving every day for his past 6 moves) and wants to get on with something else. He may even choose to resign in answer to 33...Be3, thinking that is an appropriately picturesque final position. |
|
Jan-15-14 | | ChemMac: <aylerkupp> In each of your positions, ...Bc3 seems to squelch any White dreams of a miracle. |
|
Jan-15-14 | | thegoodanarchist: looks as if 33...Be3 crushes it. That is what I am voting for. |
|
Jan-15-14 | | chesstoplay: < Team >
Voted: 33... Be3 because 18. ... d3 led to the defeat of 1. b3. Game name: b3d3
May the Force of the < World Team > be with you. And their chess engines, too.
:) |
|
Jan-15-14 | | thegoodanarchist: I made but the tiniest of contributions to this effort. I could name dozens of team members that worked harder, analyzed better, and kibitzed more insightfully than I, but I am still proud to have contributed, however insignificantly, to this team effort. Not only that, I am more proud of the many team members who contributed anywhere from even a little to a massive amount. Well done, team! You folks rocked it. |
|
Jan-15-14 | | Ultra: Proud to be a part of this team! Can't help but think he's thrown in the towel since around Christmas though. |
|
Jan-15-14 | | jarm: Voted 33...Be3. His response may be:34Rfg4 followed by e5 with a hope of a lengthened resistance. |
|
Jan-15-14 | | JASAHA: I think he's trying to psych us out by hiding his opening prep. :p |
|
Jan-16-14 | | mbvklc: Pretty cool game from SKW, maybe we could offer him a draw with this last move. |
|
Jan-16-14 | | M.Hassan: voted 33...Be3
if 34.Rfg4 Bxd2
And that will be the second pawn advantage of ours!.
Feels good! |

 | | AylerKupp: <devere> I agree, I think that GMSW has recognized that the game is a lost cause and his choices are between a slow death and a quick one. Not surprisingly, he seems to be choosing a quick one, and trying to find a good position to resign without making it too obvious that he's given up. But he is a fighter, and I'm just saying that we should be prepared and try not to be caught by surprise by making assumptions that he will be playing the relatively best moves, And yes, the more less optimal the moves he makes, the sooner the game will be over. |

 | | AylerKupp: <ChemMac> I also agree, 33...Be3 is a killer move and should win under all circumstances. It's been said that the hardest game to win is a won one, so let's not let this one get away. Let's just make sure that we are prepared for all circumstances, or at least all the somewhat reasonable ones. For example, after 33...Be3 Critter 1.6a at d=28 evaluates 34.Rf1 at [-3.03] and 34.dxe3 at [-3.45]. I'll let it run overnight and get in a few more plies but if these evaluations hold out it will be good to have an in-depth analysis of 34.Rf1 just in case. |

Jan-16-14 | | dunamisvpm: Congrats! Job well done. GOD bless |
|
Jan-16-14 | | whooops: Be3. He MUST have seen that. |
|
Jan-16-14 | | whooops: Our d-pawn will be a hero. |
|
Jan-16-14 | | Boomie: I wonder if the draw offers are jokes or offers of conciliation to our opponent. I'd like to hear the logic behind them. |
|
Jan-16-14 | | DanLanglois: Good job, team. |

|
Jan-16-14 | | Pedro Fernandez: I sincerely regret that GM Williams give us the game this way. By playing 33.e5 still we had to address certain technical complications. He could give more resistance without compromising their ethics, indeed I'm sorry. 33...Be3 is definitive. |
|
Jan-16-14 | | adhitthana: <whooops: Be3. He MUST have seen that.> Unless he is not looking at engine analysis. He has written about his views on using and not using engines. Someone linked his thoughts on this early on. He may have played the whole game without using one.
It's possible though unlikely he just didn't see it. Even GM's can do that. |
