Nov-09-09  wfarmia: why not 24.Ng7...
Nov-09-09  arnaud1959: 24.Ng7 Nbd3+ followed by Kxg7 leads apparently to nothing for white.
Nov-09-09  Paraconti: I have no idea how to understand Korchnoi's games. There's no flow or straightforward plan in his games- it's as if one player began the game, then a different player took up the game at some point, played for a few moves, then let someone else take over, and so on. Karpov's games and plans are so much easier to understand.

  kevin86: After a few spite checks by black,an Arabian type mate is in the offing.
Nov-09-09  Chessmensch: When I looked up Arabian Mate I found the following link: http://www.arabianmate.com/ Quite a surprise!!
Nov-09-09  fred lennox: This game may seem bizarre or confused, yet several of the moves are forced. 13...ba6 is clearly a bad move since it took the bishop out of the game. bb7 seems better. Also, realizing the king is a powerful piece, Steinitz considered it more powerful than a minor piece even in the middle game, will help understand this game better. Note, since he didn't 0-0 the king side was ripe for attack.

Here is a comment that I made last year that relates w/ this @ this game.: Keres vs Korchnoi, 1959 : "...I think some of Korchnoi's biggest faults were (sometimes): 1)He didn't look far enough ahead. 2)He didn't try to figure out his opponent's plan (or couldn't). 3)His positional understanding was suspect in certain positions which led to tactical shots by his opponent. I think these were the main reasons he never became world champion". I think these r some of the main reasons why what u said is true. Also, Karpov's games r much more instructive because of what u pointed out. <Chessmensch> LOL!! That was quite a surprise for u I'm sure.

  Check It Out: This is a nice game. Korchnoi's initial attack is fierce, but Suetin survives with a seemingly decent counterattack, and wins the exchange. But then white's king becomes The Man, and marches right up the board to finally make # inevitable. Excellent!
Nov-09-09  ROO.BOOKAROO: This is an interesting mating position. Not Anastasia's but with some similarity. Black has no real defense against the mate with 43. Rg7 or 43. Rh6, and can only delay things by throwing away material in short-lived checks

Nov-09-09  Milesdei: The fearlessness of Korchnoi's play is what really impresses. He leaves his King uncastled, weathers tremendous pressure against his e2 pawn, sacrifices an exchange, and uses black's f pawn as a screen against the rook as he walks his king into enemy territory. His position looks like it's hanging by a hair, but then he smashes through black's king side defense and before you know it, black's king is surrounded with any possible defenders hopelessly out of play on the queen side. Bravo Viktor!

Aug-07-17  Saniyat24: Incredible game by Korchnoi and Suetin certainly had his hand in making the game such a beautiful game...those who have the view that Korchnoi only waited for his opponent's mistake...simply do not know what an attacking, tactical player Korchnoi was...he was attacking in his openings, and after he found the edge, he waited for further initiative, because he was very good in the end game...but there were other games, where by his tactical attacking play he simply crushed his opponent...he really was an all-round player...

p.s- the pun was good too...!

  ChessHigherCat: I think Korchnoi should have played 16. h5 instead of withdrawing the knight.

For example:

16. h5 fxg5 17. hxg6 Bf6 18. gxh7+ Kf7 (Kh8 19. Ne5) 19. Nxg5+ Ke8 20. Qg6+ Kd7 21. Bxf6 Rxf6 22. Qg7+ Qe7 23. h8=Q Rxh8 24. Qxh8

  beatgiant: <ChessHigherCat> <16. h5>
Great find! One also has to look at the counterplay with <16...Nd3+> or <16...Bd3>.

16. h5!! Nd3+ 17. exd3 Bxd3 18. Qa1 fxg5 19. hxg6 Bxg6 <20. Ne5> and I don't see how Black can parry all the threats.

16. h5 Bd3 17. exd3 Nxd3+ 18. Kf1 Nxb2 19. Nxh7 <Qd3+> manages to survive to the endgame, albeit a hopeless-looking one after 20. Qxd3 Nxd3 21. Nxf8 Nxc1 22. Nxg6. But maybe White can improve with a different king move on move 18.

  ChessHigherCat: <beatgiant> Thanks, I was expecting you to prove why it doesn't work :-)

Another interesting line is 16. Nxh7 Kxh7 17. h5 f5 18. hxg6+ Kxg6 19. g4 Bf6 20. gxf5+ exf5 21. Nh4+ Kf7 22. Qxf5 Bc8 23. Qg6+ Ke7 24. Nf5+ which must mate eventually.

Retreating the knight like that seemed kind of chickensh..., I mean pusillanimous :-), so I figured there must be something better.

Aug-12-17  Toribio3: The black king is cornered. He has no escape. Viva Viktor!
