| arp001: I didn't understand why Richard opted for the trade of queens. Instead of Qd3+ ,39... Bd3+
40. Kg1 Qd1+
41. Kh2 Qxh5+

43. Kxh3

65. Rxe3 Rd2+
66. Kg3 Rxb2
This should be winning almost instantly for Black, I don't know why Wang didn't continue with this..played 64...Kh7 instead.. |

Apr-25-13 Anand vs Ding Liren, 2013
| |
| arp001: Loved Qg4 followed by Qc4 and then Qe5, a brilliant square for the queen particularly when White is initiating an attack...25..e5 was weak from Ding Liren-Black is lost after the Qf4.. 28. h5 justifies the position of the queen..and then the final blow on f6..This game highlights the |
