May-20-23 V Sanal vs R Praggnanandhaa, 2023

harish22: No way to stop the e-pawn from queening, i suppose. Long way to go but the black rook is also reaching the seventh rank. Also, the white pieces are quite dis-coordinated. |

Aug-12-22 Ivkov vs Korchnoi, 1972 
|
harish22: Need to put this thru analysis. somehow i feel that white's inability to get the QR into play may have been the cause. As pointed out Rg1 may be the case.

Feb-02-14 Gelfand vs Anand, 2014

harish22: This win exemplifies Vishy's style. In the 36 moves, that are played, his pieces rarely cross the fifth rank. Bg4, Bb4, Bd2, Nf4, Ng4 and finally the deadly Qf3. However he maneuvers in a restricted space and gets a positional advantage. This thorough understanding of position, was |
