Sep-19-05  dhotts: This is one great game. It's amazing how many moves go by with pieces en prise, or so it appears. WOW!

Is there any analysis on this game that someone could point me to?

  tamar: I haven't seen any analysis published yet. I did some during the game with Shredder.

35 Bg1 leaves the Bf1 no defense after 35...Qb1 so looks doubtful. Van Wely probably saw the piece drops but thought his two passed pawns were going to win for him. Maybe he missed 38...Re1 setting up the threat of ...Be3

Scary but possibly best was 35 Qxa6 Qe1 36 Kg1 Be3+ 37 Bxe3 Qxe3+ 38 Kh1 and Black's hanging knight on e7 gives White enough time to win.

Sep-20-05  seoulmama: This one is very intense. I'm surprised if it is not analyzed in the next issue of New in Chess. Van Wely's piece sacrifice was extremely imaginative.
Sep-20-05  iron maiden: Van Wely looks like he had a firm grip on this one for a while. I like how Black is reduced to responding to White's initiative, never being allowed so much as one free move to get rid of the "fishbone" pawn on e6.
Sep-22-05  acirce: The games aren't really that similar but the combination Van Wely + Bayonet + N sac on d5 reminded me about this one. Much more vague compensation. Gallagher in "Starting Out: The King's Indian" says after 19..g5 <It is very hard to believe that White has enough for the piece. Van Wely has assessed this position as unclear but he didn't repeat it. Still, as the game shows, it is not easy for Black to make progress.>

If you don't mind it's in Dutch; variations speak for themselves.
