  Sneaky: 25.Nxh6+!! Classic Oll, I love it!
Dec-26-04  Whitehat1963: Agree with <Sneaky>, 25. Nxh6+ is gutsy and apparently very well calculated.
Dec-26-04  Whitehat1963: Check out Oll vs Azmaiparashvili, 1993 for another great game from the player of the day.

  OneArmedScissor: 25. Nxh6+!! Great move.
I think another great move is 27. Raxd3!!

If 33. ...Bxh6 34. Qg6+ Kh8 35. Qg8++

May-25-05  farrooj: notice how the player that sacrifices the most usually wins
Aug-05-05  olav dalkeith: I like his 44 Ne7+ instead of the maybe more obvious Rc8+, allowing the knight to later cover g2 (50. Ne3). Excellent. Great fun to replay this game.
Dec-27-05  Timothy Glenn Forney: What a great game!What a brilliant man and what a loss to the chess world.At move 30 my mind was saying take the pawn at f6. Does anyone see anything wrong with it?
Dec-27-05  Timothy Glenn Forney: 30.Qxf6! any 31.Bxh6!
Jan-17-06  jorgegatica: Tim, with all due respect, your suggestion sucks:
30. Qxf6? is answered with Rf7 and Black gets initiative...

Well Shedder 8 thinks its ok-1. (-1.25)30.Bxh6 Qc7 31.Nd4 Bc8 32.Bxg7 Rxg7 33.Rxg7+ Kxg7 34.Qg3+ Kf7- 2. (-1.60)30.Qxf6 Qc7 31.Bxh6 Kh8 32.Qh4 Bxh6 33.Qxh6+ Rh7 34.Qe3 Rg7 Shedder thinks your comment sucks with all due respect.
Jan-21-06  Timothy Glenn Forney: Shedder 8 likes my move,but its still lost for white.My thought was that the R sac was dubious.I am not trying to tear this game apart,because it is very human and imaginative.Sometimes dubious sacs win games against humans,even though a program like Shedder 8 can make some classic games look bad.
Jan-21-06  Timothy Glenn Forney: Shedder 8-30.Qxf6 Rf7 31.Rxg7+ Rxg7 32.Rxg7 Qe6+ Rf7 33.Qg6+ Rg7 34.Qe6+ Rf7 draw=
Sep-26-11  ToTheDeath: What a game! This guy was on another level.

  xthred: Cool!
May-02-12  rilkefan: Not really impressed with black's defensive tactics here. 32...Kh7 jumps out as a waste of tempo in a critical position, for example. And checking with stockfish I see it thinks the move throws away a two-pawn advantage (compared to ...Rf7; other better natural moves I checked include Ra4, Ra2, Ra1+). 31...Kh8 was also strong for black, and a few other moves around there, but 32...Rf7 was critical.

Well, actually, a lot of what I thought was dithering was just black being lost after 34...d2 and 35...Qc4 (instead 34...Ra1/35...b4 was equal and 35...Ra4 in the game line held white to about 0.7 instead of 2).

May-02-12  vinidivici: i really blank about this game. so sharp and deep. this is hard

  sevenseaman: What a gut-crusher by Oll! Like in a balanced tug-of-war, for a long time the hankie moves only inches right or left, until the realization dawns upon you the guy was going for P promotion. What nerve!

My slumber suffered a jolt at <41. Rg3+>. I will go on wondering why he took that little stroll into his backyard garden! Was it a ploy to collect his breath, gather his wits? Or a reassuring visit to tell his K he was still there?

May-02-12  gofer: Don't quite understand how black let this happen.

<47 ... Qxf2> clears white's defenses and opens a multitude of possibilities for black.

Shoving the black queen into a box like h1 makes no sense unless you are expecting white to protect Pg2, which white easily can. But after white gets greedy and plays <49 Rf7+> black surely should have played <49 ... Ke8> and not allowed white the tempo to get back to defend and instead forced <50 Nxd6+ Kd8> allowing the counter attack on g2!

May-02-12  TimothyLucasJaeger: gofer, after <49 ... Ke8 50 Nxd6+ Kd8 51 Be3> I don't see any satisfactory way for black to stop the threat of Bb6#. For example, after <51 Qxg2+ Kh4> black is out of checks (e4 is covered by the knight).
May-02-12  erniecohen: <<Timothy Glenn Forney>: Shedder 8-30.Qxf6 Rf7 31.Rxg7+ Rxg7 32.Rxg7 Qe6+ Rf7 33.Qg6+ Rg7 34.Qe6+ Rf7 draw=>

Much better for Black is 30... Qc7 31. Bxh6 Kh8 32. Bxg7+ Rxg7 .

May-02-12  gofer: <TimothyLucasJaeger> Thanks!

Even more reason to play <47 ... Qxf2> rather than <47 ... Qh1>.

  kevin86: White is threatened with matem,but cooly continues the attack. Later,all white has for the queen are knight and bishop,oh,any FIVE PASSED pawns.
