| malthrope: This is just a great chess game! I've already shared it with several others recently after becoming aware of it... It sure will be interesting to watch the great Morozevich at the upcoming Biel Chess Tournament (July 17 -30, 2004) 37th Chess Festival... :-) |

| jeffnool: this is a very intertaining game played by one of the most "kamikaze"player in Morozevich |

| Coleman: Dick Brain...Your deja vu experience is accurate. This sacrifice appeared in a "Game of the Day" about three months ago. Tal was the winner but I do not remember who he played. If I find the game I will provide a link. After viewing that game I feel Morozevich had his attack set at 20 f5, and blacks greed blindedhim from the obvious. Still this must have been quite a satisfying victory for Morozevich. He has been my favorite player for the last year or so. His creative play in this game, and many previous, has kept me following his games. |

| steven18: Moro makes Bologan look like a fricken Bogan here. |

| Spassky69: Morozevich saw 28. Qh8+!! all the way from 24. Rxd4!!. One of my favorite Morozevich games. |

| tacticsjokerxxx: <Coleman> I'd appreciate it if you post the game played by Tal with the same tactic if you find it, would be nice to see, thanks. |

| stanleys: Well nice combination but I cannot understand Bologan's play starting from 17...Rad8,followed by 18...de4
He has achieved a very promising position and could have simply played 17...a5 with a dangerous attack |

| weary willy: No - I give up. Can someone please explain the "Bologan Sandwich" title? |
 |

| mrsaturdaypants: It's a play on "bologna sandwich," a standard, cheap American dish. Hope that helps. |

| virginmind: obviously beause of the final position of black king - made sandwich between white rook and queen, with the definite spice of white bishop who would eventualy mate on e5 if the king would bite the queen-part of sandwich. |

| JohnBoy: Astounding!! I love this game - and its sister
Morozevich vs Vallejo-Pons, 2004
The latter is remarkable not only for the play, but that it was played blindfold. |

| kevin86: A brilliant queen sac-the sequel would be 28... xh8 29 xf8+ g8 30 e5+ g7 31 hxg7#. A smothered mate with a pawn. |

| swordfish: Beautiful attack by Morozevich. But I'm not sure why Black played 11...Be2; it seems to just aid White in developing his pieces, to say nothing of trading two bishops for two knights in a sharp, opposite-side castled attacking position. |
 |

| gambitking: Awesome sacrifice at the end. This just shows how the two bishops are better than the two knights... The Gambit King |

 |
| JohnBoy: <swordfish> - the exchange 11...Bxe2 allowed black to get moving with ...c4 and try to get play against the white king. The bishop is going to be hard-pressed to escape its prison of white-squared pawns. A lot of C-Ks feature such exchanges - black gives up the bishops and tries to keep the position clogged. Part of Moro's brilliance here is that he pries the battlefield open anyhow. |

| kingsindian2006: black should know that the bishop he takes on the h file , he cant use in the afterlife...lol.. have to watch for the clear and present danger not piece collecting.. |

| patzer2: Perhaps Morozovich's brilliant 24. Rxd4!! to finish off his attack on Bologan's weakened King-side position is not one we'll see anytime soon in a Sunday puzzle, since it appears to be the only plausable sacrifice in the position. Yet, it is an amazing move, requiring precise calculation and is certainly worthy of study. Here's my breakout of the combination, verified with computer analysis: <24. Rxd4!! Qxh1+ 25. Ka2 Qxh3> If 25... Rxd4, then White gets a mating attack underway with 26. Bxe6+ Kh8 27. Qxd4 Nf5 28. Bxf5 Qb7 29. Be5 . <26. Rxd8 gxh6 27. gxh6 Qg4 28. Qh8+> 0-1 Black resigns in the face of nothing but losing possibilities ,such as 28...Kxh8 (28... Kf7 29. Qxh7+ Kf6 (29... Qg730. Qxg7#) 30. Rxf8#) 29. Rxf8+ Ng8 30. Be5+ Qg7 31. Bxg7# |

| ravel5184: Wow, another 24. Rxd4 to keep track of?!??! |

| apf123: moro a genius againts weaker players he has a negative score againts all top chess players |
 |
| Jan-21-09 |
| stanleys: Still cannot see any problem with 17...a5 - it offers a powerful attack to black,I think |
 |
| Apr-05-09 |
| WhiteRook48: 28. Qh8+ was tremendous
Why did Black give up his bishops?
28...Kxh8 29 Rxf8+ Ng8 30 Be5+ Qg7 31 hxg7# 1-0 |
 |

| WhiteRook48: spectacular decoy |
