May-21-05  schnarre: After 20. Qxh5 it's curtains!
Aug-24-05  alexandrovm: 19.Nh6+ ups! And black loses the queen
Oct-22-05  Karpova: great play by topalov!
Oct-22-05  aw1988: Topalov lost...
Oct-22-05  aw1988: Is Qxf6 really the best? gxf6 is, probably... but the maneuver in the game was perhaps not the best. What about Qe2! and if Nxd4 Nxd4 Qxd4 Nf3
Oct-22-05  Karpova: <aw1988: Topalov lost...>

you already noticed that? congratulations!

<What about Qe2! and if Nxd4 Nxd4 Qxd4 Nf3>

or simply qe6:+ instead of nf3

Oct-22-05  aw1988: Yeah, or that.
Jan-13-06  schnarre: It's curtains for Black in any case!
Jun-12-06  Poisonpawns: Topolovs "immortal"
Mar-28-07  TheSlid: Oh well, the French have always been better at cooking than defending. Does Topa still play the Frog?
Nov-09-09  WhiteRook48: topalov is good at losing
