Jul-01-03 | | mandar: Hey which opening is this?? |
|
Jul-01-03 | | Bears092: Modern Benoni - Taimonov Variation - 8...Nbd7?! variation. |
|
Jul-01-03
 | | Sneaky: <<8...Nbd7> This continuation has found just a marginal entry into the opening manuals. It has a poor reputation which is easily supported by the tournament praxis. However, Black has certain attacking possibilities which require accurate play by the White side.> Modern Benoni Four Pawn Attack,
by Jerzy Konikowski |

Jul-01-03 | | Bears092: 39...f4?
bad move.
The time pressure haunts him. |
|
Jul-01-03
 | | Sneaky: Time pressure is over, and now Stellwagen can take a long hard look at his situation. I suspect a resignation might be coming soon. |
|
Jul-01-03 | | jaja2003: I think black should resign now. |
|
Jul-01-03
 | | Sneaky: Black's fantasy varation works like this: his King protects the a-pawn (e.g. after 42.Ra4 Kb5 43.Ra8 Kb4), then Black sacrifices his rook into White's g-pawn, then after pushing his a-pawn White realizes he must take it with his rook to prevent queening. 1/2-1/2 |
|
Jul-01-03 | | webzary: Is this a timed game? |
|
Jul-01-03 | | crafty: 43. ♘f5 ♔b5 44. ♖a8 ♔b4 45. ♘d4 ♖c1 46. g4 (eval 3.66; depth 14 ply; 250M nodes) |
|
Jul-01-03 | | chessamateur: Shouldn't white use his rook to restrict Black's King from supporting his passed pawn while he uses his king to support his own passed pawn? |
|
Jul-01-03
 | | Sneaky: I think we are witnessing my fantasy variation becoming a reality!! |
|
Jul-01-03 | | chessamateur: So now after 44... Kb4 white should play 45. Rf5 and then 46. Rf2 preventing the black king from supporting his passed pawn right? |
|
Jul-01-03 | | yorkebrazil: chessamateur if 45.Rf5 black would play 45...Rc1 |
|
Jul-01-03 | | crafty: 46. ♘d4+ ♔c3 47. ♘e2+ ♔d2 48. ♘f4 ♔c3 49. ♔f5 = (eval 0.00; depth 17 ply; 500M nodes) |
|
Jul-01-03 | | crafty: 46. ... ♔a4 47. ♖a5+ ♔b3 = (eval 0.00; depth 19 ply; 250M nodes) |
|
Jul-01-03 | | Shadout Mapes: Oh! That's devious. |
|
Jul-01-03 | | crafty: 48. ... ♔c3 49. ♘e6 ♔b2 50. ♖b5+ ♔c1 51. ♖a5 ♔b2 = (eval 0.00; depth 15 ply; 100M nodes) |
|
Jul-01-03
 | | Sneaky: I can't believe my eyes; Black is saving his hide by following the maxim "passed pawns must be pushed!" -- even while down a whole piece. This has been a great game!! |
|
Jul-01-03 | | yorkebrazil: 57... Rg1 58.Nc3 Rxg3 = |
|
Jul-01-03 | | crafty: 57. ... ♖b1 58. ♖e4 ♖b3 59. ♔f4 ♔b1 60. ♖e1+ ♔c2 = (eval 0.00; depth 18 ply; 100M nodes) |

Jul-01-03
 | | chessgames.com: It's official: the game is drawn, by stalemate. Many thanks to everybody who participated in this event. |
|
Jul-01-03 | | dinesh: love games with the stalemate theme..Another game that comes to mind is Anand vs Dreev, 1991 |
|
Jul-01-03 | | yorkebrazil: great game! |
|
Jul-01-03 | | kevin86: Great finish;at times it looked that neither player could have saved the game. |
|
Jan-05-09 | | WhiteRook48: A E Post vs Nimzowitsch, 1905 is another example of a rook stalemate. |
