Mar-03-19 Fedorowicz vs Miles, 1980   computer chess guy: It was safer to decline the exchange sac with 29. .. Nf6.      Jan-30-19 M Rodshtein vs K Miton, 2017   computer chess guy: This was quite even up till move 20 or so. Black should have played 20. .. Bxe4 and removed the dangerous Bishop. 23. .. g6 is a blunder and allows a nice sac for the finish. (Engines say 24. b5! is an even stronger move, but Bxg6 is good enough to win).      Dec-03-18 chessgames.com chessforum    computer chess guy: <crawfb5> It is not just the Corr. World Championship events, for example Dronov was in the strong Joop van Oosterom Memorial, https://iccf.com/event?id=68635      Mar-12-18 Kotronias vs Ivanchuk, 2011    computer chess guy: Move 32 is also remarkable: [DIAGRAM] Ivanchuk "forked" his own Rook and Queen with Qd4. But this is not a mistake: it is the winning move.      Feb-23-18 Areshchenko vs Sutovsky, 2005    computer chess guy: Better for Black according to latest Stockfish is 13. .. Nd7. In the game line after 13. .. g4, White should have played 15. Nxf3, although he would still be somewhat worse.      Nov-24-17 G Mammadzada vs J Houska, 2017    computer chess guy: 4.. f5 is rubbish. After 5. Ng5, White practically has a won game.      Sep-29-17 Carlsen vs Karpov, 2007   computer chess guy: After 24. Qg4, .. Bf8 is an error. After 24. .. Kf7, Black is still defending.      Aug-20-17 L Trent vs N Davies, 2009   computer chess guy: 5. .. Ne4 is better met with 6. Qd3.      Jun-13-17 Rublevsky vs Dubov, 2016   computer chess guy: 11. g4 is quite unusual: normal is f5 or Qf3. White was completely winning before blundering with 23. gxf6 (23. Rxh3 and White is still winning). Given that 11. g4 looks good, maybe Black should vary with 10. .. b5 (11. .. h6 may also be a better way to meet 11. g4).      May-03-17 Mamedyarov vs Karjakin, 2017   computer chess guy: 12. .. Nxd4 is not a novelty: it had been played earlier in some correspondence games.
