Nov-14-19  SChesshevsky: Nice win by Psakhis. But must've been aggravating for Yasser. Seems to give up a couple of pawns to keep whites king centralized with some possible lines and it ends up his king is most vulnerable and whites king handily active.

  perfidious: This game represents a curious reversal of roles: Psakhis, known for sharp play, excels in a controlled positional game which was a hallmark of his opponent's style from the latter's earliest days, while Seirawan throws caution to the wind in his ultimately frustrated bid to get at the enemy king.
Nov-14-19  Carrots and Pizza: Pshakis plays very beautiful chess here, indeed. Somehow he manages to stay just one step ahead of Seirawan. If it were me playing White, I would have felt very uneasy until the very last move or so. Sharp game.
