Aug-20-19 | | Steve.Patzer: Aronian’s 46th was erroneous. |
|
Aug-20-19 | | csmath: Aronious move?
It really is unforced error, other than for a time. bxa4 is such a simple and obvious move. But on the other hand without enough time Qc5 looks logical ... unless you consider Re8!And apparently Aronian did not have enough time to see that after hours of hard fight. |

Aug-20-19 | | Casr: Hi! Is there any other berlin with an early sac on d6? I have seen none. And could anybody tell me why 42...Rd2 was played? I did not run it through no engine, nor my insights are meaningful
at all, but shouldn't black be ok after 43 Qe8+ Kh7 44 Qe4+ Kh6 45 Rd3 Rxd3 46 Qxd3 Qxa2 47 Qxb5 Qd2 and so forth? Again, I haven't got the faintest idea as to how these endgames should sensible develop. |

White retains great chances to win. More importantly that obstructive h4 pawn is now missing and that greatly reduces danger to white king. Losing this pawn would enable white to push his own h-pawn and create even more trouble for black as it is. In other words, Rd2 is definitely not a good move. |

Aug-20-19 | | Casr: Definetely miss that. Thanks for the lines and the time: i do appreciate it. |

 | | HeMateMe: instructive how white built a little house for his King to live (safely) in. black can't get a tempo to start a perpetual check. if he shifts his King to the black squares that give him access to g3 then white puts his king on the third rank and also is able to defend his passed pawns. |

Aug-27-19 | | mmkstarr: What about 24...Qd7 25. f4 Rfd8 26. Qf3 to defend the pawn? |
|
Aug-27-19 | | mmkstarr: What about early game pawn: 14...Nh5 so knight doesn't capture knight, pawn isn't used to recap, pawn isn't capped. Is black protecting that sole pawn a waste? This puts the knight at the side of the board which I've been instructed is a faux pas. |
|
Aug-27-19 | | mmkstarr: Seeing as the game ended with a pawn push, I am thinking that early game pawn advantages were critical in the result. |
