| orior: When I saw the solution I thought it was one of the cases where the player misses "the solution", but there was no "Here white missed the winning Qxd1" annotation :) Only then, after checking again and trying to find out what's the problem with that move, I saw that hanging C4 ... |

| orior: This is a great game. You don't see games like that everyday in the 2700+ caliber. reminds me of Tal's games.
Great job by Ivanchuk! |

| orior: It really is easy, I'm drunk and I found the solution within half a minute and couldn't believe this is really the solution, unlike some medium puzzles which take me longer when I'm sober. |

| |
| orior: Anatoly21, what are you talking about?
Rh7 is better than going for the d8 rook with Bxg6 - it aims for a mate after Rg7+, taking the knight and mate with Rh8.
You can rest assured morozevich didn't "overlook" that obvious Bxg6 :) |

| orior: what are you all getting so enthusiastic about?
A bishop for 3 pawns is not a sac, it's an exchange, and most of the times 3 pawns are better. |

| |
| orior: <MostlyAverageJoe> in the position you've shown Qxe1 doesn't work cause after Ne2 white has Nd3 and he stops the pawn. |
