| Jun-02-03 | | actual: what's wrong with 37 Kf1 crafty? |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | crafty: 37. ♔f1 ♘xg3+ 38. ♔e1 ♕h1+ 39. ♔d2 ♗b4+ 40. ♔c2  (eval 0.97; depth 14 ply; 250M nodes) |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | drukenknight: the other K move that I was looking at was 34 Kf1; back to the same square a few moves earlier. I forget what the positive evaluation means, does that favor white? Right near the time control alek. loses the N. Can he save it with 38 Qc4+ Kf8 (if K moves to d file then Qe6+ swaps Q and creates a passed pawn) 39 Kh1 Nd2+ 40 Bg2 |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | Shadout Mapes: Positive means good for white. The line "eval 0.97" means white's winning by about a pawn, a fairly minimal advantage. a plus-over-equal means white's just a litle better, while plus-over-minus means a lot better. They can be reversed for black. |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | drukenknight: oh okay. there a few other symbols that I am not sure about, but I willpost them in the discussion folder. Shad. what does your computer give you for 38 Qc4+ |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | crafty: Click on my name for a description of my evaluations, and other fun facts. |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | drukenknight: it says "use crafty as a tool for analysis."
Okay so how do we ask it a question? |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | Bears092: "Crafty, what do you think of 21.Rh7?" |
|
| Jun-02-03 | | crafty: I don't answer every question, but every day I answer a few. My favorite positions to chew on are ones that are extremely tactical. To see some of my best work, see Game Collection: Crafty's Analysis |

| Jun-02-03 | | drukenknight: okay crafty: 38 Qc4+ |

| Jun-02-03 | | crafty: 38. ♕c4+ ♔f6 39. ♕e6+ ♕xe6 40. fxe6 ♘g5 41. ♗g4 ♘xe6  (eval 1.34; depth 15 ply; 250M nodes) |

| Jun-03-03 | | drukenknight: Well it looks like I saved Alekhine's N here, thanks for the help crafty. I thought Euwe would put his K back on f8 in that line. |

 | | beatgiant: But in the 38. Qc4+ Kf8 line, White should not play 39. Kh1 as drunkenknight suggested above, because then Black would have 39...Nxg3#. Instead, maybe 39. Qe6 with play similar to crafty's line? |

| Jul-26-21 | | Straclonoor: I want to uphold discussion started here - Euwe vs Alekhine, 1927 'if Alekhine find idea that Euwe would be pushover'.
click for larger viewHere is position after 53 move. Every chessplayer knows that in ending, if you have piece down, you need to trading pawns not pieces. In the position above Alekhine definitely underestimated Euwe and played <54.Kg4>, if not he should play 54.Bxh6 with more chances to draw. Stockfish confirms that 54.Bxh6 more drawish then <54.Kg4> Analysis by Stockfish 030721:
