Jun-16-06  suenteus po 147: The first of Kamsky's only two losses at this tournament. Would it be fair to say Short learned something from Kamsky's win against Timman in round five even though Nigel's development here is completely different?
Sep-22-06  positionalbrilliancy: 13. Qc1! Is a extremely difficult move to find. Looking into the position it seems to be best, considering the battle is between the dark squares on the k-side. Black might plan to put N on f5 to and push g3. Also, white can meditate on the c3-c4 if black decides to castle q-side.

After 13...Rg8 14.Nb3 now 14...Bxe3 15.fxe3 Qg5 16.a5 f6 17.exf6 Nxf6 18.Nbc5 and White is much better the pawn on b7 seems a goner in a few
