| percyblakeney: Shirov and Carlsen seems to be winning. |
 |
| Feb-23-08 |
| Microdot: The way Shirov plays against Radja's kings indian is very interesting this is because after great Kasparov, Radja
is the most expert in kings indian |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| Microdot: It seems Carlsen is well prepared in this variation. |

| Jim Bartle: And now a draw in Anand-Ivanchuk... |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| Microdot: Shirov blundered with 21.g3?! |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| r1xze: Things look good for Shirov. Raja black a different line leaving out Nf6 ealier in the game. Now it seems white has a clear advantage. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| sheaf: <yalie> how on earth can black be better.. isolated d pawn, dark squared bishop out of play unless black comes up with some tactics |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| minasina: Ivanchuk-Anand ½ |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| Justawoodpusher: <Jim Bartle> Yep! |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| minasina: ...vice versa |
|

|
| percyblakeney: Shirov is at least clearly better but must have good chances to mess things up after all in a complicated position. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| r1xze: sheaf: it looks to me that the position was about equal. The isolated d pawn and black bishop for black were weakness but the double pawn and over extension of white was also a weakness. Each side had problems, nothing that couldn't be solved with piece exchanges. Looks like that is what Ivanchuk was going for. Explains the quick draw too. But I agree, black was not better but prob about equal. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| Microdot: 20.Bf3! was a better move than 20.Bxc8
for shirov, I played this line several
times with white pieces with great results. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| Jim Bartle: "Shirov is at least clearly better but must have good chances to mess things up after all in a complicated position." I think Shirov lives for complicated positions. But yes, he's been known to mess them up a time or two. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| Microdot: Ofcourse 20.Bxc8 is good too, it is because exchanging light squared bishop is one of white's main ideas in king's indian. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| r1xze: Aronian can knock over his king now. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| wolfmaster: Official:Carlsen-Aronian 1-0
|
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| r1xze: Yes, and Raja had a lot of potential attacking changes with that white bishop on the board. It was cutting into white king side. Exchanging it in the KID is always a good idea. |
|
| Feb-23-08 |
| Intrepid Spiff: Carlen won! |
