Nov-26-02		refutor: where was black's big mistake? he seemed to be okay and then he ran out of moves

Nov-29-02		Honza Cervenka: Maybe 14...g5 would be better. But I think that black resigned a little bit early. Of course, white has big (objectively decisive) advantage but after 18...Bxd4 I don't see any immediately winning shot. 19.cxd4 Bd7 20.Qg3+ Qg4 21.Ra3 Kh7 22.Qxg4 Bxg4 23.Bxf6 Rc8 24.Rg3 Rg8 etc. gives pawn to white but the ending is not quite elementary to win thanks to opposite color bishops.

Nov-29-02		pawntificator: Because of 15. Ne3, 15...g5 is too late with 16. Nxg5 hxg5 17. Bxg5 there is no way to protect the black knight from eventual capture because now the e3 knight can join the attack. Honza, how about 18...Bxd4 19. Qg3+ Kh7 20. cxd4 does that look any better to you? It leaves white a little bit more freedom to initiate threats than 19. cxd4 did, but still not enough to warrant a resignation.

Dec-02-02		Honza Cervenka: I don't think that 18...Bxd4 19. Qg3+ Kh7 20. cxd4 is better for white as it (I think) allows to black to keep material equality - 20...Rg8 21.Qd3 (21.d5 Rxg3 22.dxe6 Rg6 23.exf7 Rf8 etc.) 21...Qg4 22.Bg3 Qg6.

Sep-22-05		Mateo: 14... g5 would be bad on account of 15. Nxg5!!. For instance: 15... Nxe4 (15... hxg5 16. Bxg5 Kg7 17. Re3, white wins) 16. Nf3 Ng5 17. Ncxe5!! dxe5 (17... Bxf3 18. Nxf3 Nxf3+ 19. Qxf3 Qxh4 20. Re4, white wins) 18. Bxg5 f6 (18... hxg5 19. Rxe5, white wins) 19. Nxe5!!, white wins.

Sep-22-05		Mateo: Olsson rightly resigned. After 18... Bxd4, white plays the quiet 19. cxd4 and now, if 19... Bd7 20. d5 Qe5 21. f4 . I think the big mistake was 14... Ba7.
