 | | tamar: While Movi is off chasing the renegade a pawn, his King is without protection. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | watwinc: ... Qd4+ and Bd6? |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | whiteshark: Sergei resigned |

 | | HeMateMe: I know some people hate computer add ins, but does anyone have a computer eval for this position? |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | putot: congrats judit!!! |

 | | tpstar: Polgar played very powerfully to grind out the win. On to the next Round! |

| | HeMateMe: hmmm. The eval must be 1.0. Talk about being strangled in a quiet game. Super technique from Polgar. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | putot: <chessgame.com> thanks for the info.... |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | Ulhumbrus: One alternative to 45 Rxf8+ is 45 Kg2
The finish may be worth comparing with that of the game Reshevsky vs Bronstein, 1953 |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | turbo231: <Strongest Force: I remember 10-year-old Judit in NYC, hustling some 2400 player in blitz. She won almost every game and kept her teddy bear happy!> That had to have been an amazing scene. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | lost in space: Nice win from Polgar. She cleverly utilized the extra a-pawn |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | sevenseaman: Judit has eked out a win playing top chess. She has to be a force to be reckoned with in the WC. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | luzhin: 55...a3! threatens a2 followed by Qg1+ queening the a pawn. And if Movsesian tries 56.Bd5 Polgar plays 56...a2!! anyway, because if 57.Bxa2 Qf3+ 58.Kh2 Bf4+ 59.Kg1 Qg3+ 60.Kf1 Qxh3+ 61.Kf2 Qh2+ 62.Kf3 Qg3+ 63.Ke2 Qg2+ 64.Ke1 Qg1+ finally wins the Qa1. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | haydn20: One line from Fritz (not a deep search) is 41 Qxa5 Qh5; 42 Re3 Bd4; 43 cxb5 Kg8; 44 Qe1 Bxe3; 45 Be6+ Kg7; 46 Qxe3 Qxb5 winning. I have 32 Bg4(?)so I guess I'll let Fritz check that. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | haydn20: One possibility is 32 Bc4 Rf1+ 33 Kg2 Qf8 34 Re8! Qxe8 35 Kxf1 Bxb2 and Fritz's +1.0 isn't much considering the BOC. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | DanielBryant: Great game from Polgar. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | Gilmoy: <2.Nf3 6.Nd2 7.Nf1 9.Ne3 10.Ncd5> Gerald Welling can get away with this against fish. J.Polgar is a cat. GM file-ripping pawn thrusts: <16..d5 28..f4 29..f3 40..b5>. I guess if you think of a GM as a sculptor, then Polgar is ahead 4-0 in shaping the field. <33..Qb6> When White swarms the K-side with, um, no good reason, counter it by -- <grubbing some pawns>!! Ivanchuk is shaking his head: "It never works for me" |

 | | perfidious: <Strongest Force: I remember 10-year-old Judit in NYC, hustling some 2400 player in blitz. She won almost every game and kept her teddy bear happy!> Also from 1987, I remember her playing a fellow member of my club (2350) in the first round of that NY Open, teddy bear alongside, and tearing him to pieces with her speciality, the Benko. This is a classic opposite-coloured bishops attack, in which Black was playing virtually a piece ahead. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | andrewjsacks: All true chess aficianados root for players like Judit and Viktor the Terrible, I opine. |
|
| Sep-01-11 | | andrewjsacks: Forgive my spelling error, please. Tough word! |
|

| | perfidious: <andrew> Nah-yer gonna get hung out ta dry fer that! |
|
| Sep-02-11 | | ahmadov: An amazing game by the lady... Congratulations for qualifying for the next round by sending Movsisyan back home... |
|
| Sep-02-11 | | andrewjsacks: Anyone else here like to see a final match between Judit and Kamsky, in which she wins? |
|
| Sep-03-11 | | Ulhumbrus: 17 Qf3 is better than 17 Qe2 because it compels Black to play either 17...d4 or 17...dxe4 before she manages to play ....Rae8 and so increase the pressure on the e4 pawn. The move 19 cxd5 relinquishes the bishop pair as 19...Nxd5 both attacks a B and discovers an attack on White's Queen. |
