Mar-17-23 Lutikov vs Y Sakharov, 1969 
| |
| actinia: Positionally, Ne2 ties black up and it is the CG engine's first choice as well as the favorite movie for Stockfish 14+ at depth 24. Black can trade knight for the d3 bishop but then he is really weak on dark squares. Great time for a positional puzzle for a change but CG gives the ... |

Sep-16-22 A Cioara vs V Chernov, 1997

Aug-25-22 S Vokarev vs G Prakken, 2000

Mar-31-22 Shankland vs So, 2022
