 | | clocked: Bxc5, black is only down one pawn :-) |
 |
| Nov-19-04 | | beatgiant: The threat is 25.  e4  moves 26.  g6+  g8 27. d5+ . If Black tries 24...b6 to cover d5, then 25. d3 f7 26. g6+ g8 27. xe5! leads to an immediate win.I'd say the burden of proof here is on anyone who claims Black can save this. |

| | clocked: 27.Nxe5 is too complex to be expected, and I don't think it immediately wins |
|
| Nov-19-04 | | beatgiant: <27.Nxe5 is too complex to be expected, and I don't think it immediately wins> OK, I'll bite. Please show me Black's reply that makes it complex and prevents the immediate win (the threat is 28. h7+ ). |

| | clocked: I didn't say it is not winning. Anyway: 27.Nxe5 Qxh5 28.Bh7+ Kh8 |
|
| Nov-19-04 | | beatgiant: <I didn't say it is not winning. Anyway: 27.Nxe5 Qxh5 28.Bh7+ Kh8> And after then 29. g6 threatening the queen and the back rank with  d8 ? |

| | clocked: 29.Bg6? Bf5! |

| | clocked: Is that a starter pistol? |
|
Nov-19-04
| | drukenknight: clocked 25...Bd7 |
|
Nov-19-04
| | clocked: 26.Rxe5 fxe5 27.Bh5 |
|
| Nov-20-04 | | beatgiant: Sorry guys, 24...b6 25. d3 f7 26. g6+ g8 27. xe5 xh5 28. h7+ h8 29. d8+ e8 30. g6 does win the queen. My main point (which may have been lost in the tactics) is that White is not only winning the exchange, there is a mating net too. So it really is a quesiton of how Black can save and not how White can win. |

| | clocked: <beatgiant> "Sorry guys"?? who are you talking to? I never said your move is not winning. But I will return the comment: sorry, there is NO mating net. 30...Bf5 I will force you into a tedious endgame. |
|
| Nov-20-04 | | beatgiant: <30...Bf5 I will force you into a tedious endgame.> Sure, White's then "only" a piece up with 31. xe8 xc2 32. xh5+ xd8 33. f7+ followed by 34. xd8. Are we agreed that Black can resign? |
|
Nov-20-04
| | clocked: No we are not agreed. 33...Kh7 34.Nxd8 Nxc4 |
|
Nov-20-04
| | drukenknight: yay! I have clocked on my side! I think white will be a piece up in all variations, I tried the 24...Bxh2+ and basically down a B. Dunno if thats enuf to resign. |

 | | notyetagm: Petrosian was a <tremendous attacker> when the position demanded it. |

| | Nezhmetdinov: This is the "magic rook" game from O'kelly's book of TP's games. |
|

| | ToTheDeath: <clocked> <beat giant> <drunkenknight> etc.: 24...Nb6 25.Bxc5. Game over. |
|
| Aug-29-08 | | arsen387: one of Petrosian's attacking brilliancies. Rook moves are very nice |
|
| Oct-30-08 | | sergeidave: Awesome game! Boa constrictor... |
|
| Nov-24-09 | | butilikefur: <ToTheDeath: <clocked> <beat giant> <drunkenknight> etc.: 24...Nb6 25.Bxc5. Game over.> I think you guys had the right idea but just stopped short of the finish: <24...Nb6 25. Bd3 Qf7 26. Ng6+ Kg8 27. Nxe5 Qxh5 28. Bh7+ Kf8 29. Rd8+ Qe8> 29...Re8 30. Bxc5+ mate <30. Rxe8+ Kxe8 31. Qg6+ Kd8> 31...Kf8 32. Bxc5 fxe5 33. Qd6 wins (not 33. Bg8 Kxg8 34. Bxe7 Nd7) <32. Qd3+ Bd7> 32...Kc7 33. Bxc5 <33. Ng6 Re8 34. Bxc5> and White will win easily. The toughest bit is seeing 27. Nxe5 ..for example, <27...fxe5 28. Bh7+ Kh8> 28...Kf8 29. Rd8+ Qe8 30. Rf5+ Bxf5 31. Qxf5+ Rf7 32. Bxc5+ mate <29. Rd8+ Re8 30. Bg6 Rxd8 31. Bxe7 Bg4 32. Rd5 Nxd5 cxd5> wins - a cute threat here was, after 31...Bd7 (a very poor move), 32. Qg6 and Black can't stop mate, even 32...Bf5 loses to 33. Rxh6+ gxh6 34. Qxh6+ Bh6 35. Qf6+ mate Another variation is <27...Rxe5 28. Bh7+ Kf8> 28...Kh8 29. Rxe5 and White is just up a rook <29. Rd8+ Re8 30. Bxc5+ wins the queen> - 27. Nxe5 was a great idea <beatgiant> ..more than five years ago. |

| | tommer: I think 21 ..Bd6 cost a lose of exchange for black . |
|
| Aug-23-12 | | backrank: This game was one Petrosian's own favorites. The rook manoevers on the 4th rank are as original as they are strong. In the position after 14 ... exd4,
click for larger viewhow many of us (including myself) would have recaptured 15 exd4 to keep the pawn structure intact? Petrosian doesn't care for pawn structures here; he realizes that the game can be decided by piece play. He finds the wonderful manoever 25 Bh7+! (to force the king on the long diagonal and to clear the 4th rank for his own rook) followed by Rxd4-f4-e4-h4 etc. |
