  Honza Cervenka: 14.0-0 looks like an inaccuracy. Why not insert 14.Qf4 at first? After 14...f5 15.0-0 Nxe5 16.Qxe5 fxe4 17.Qxc3 black position is awful.

  Honza Cervenka: 36.Re7+ missed a win. After 36.Rca7 or 36.Rb7 with terrible threat 37.Be7 black has nothing better than 36...Bf6 followed by simple 37.Nd6+ Rxd6 (37...Kf8 38.Rxf7#) 38.Bxd6
Feb-04-07  IMDONE4: 14...f5 is not forced, 14... Nc5 would b an improvement
Feb-04-07  IMDONE4: <Honza Cervenka> wat about 36...Rf6 after either Rb7 or Rca7? he has to move the knight, and black can either take on g3, or probably better exchange on d6 with Bd6
Feb-04-07  who: 36.Rb7 Rf6 37.Be7 Rxf5 38.Rxd8#

  Honza Cervenka: <IMDONE4: 14...f5 is not forced, 14... Nc5 would b an improvement> 14.Qf4 Nc5(?) 15.Bc6+ and the game is over I guess. 14...f5 looks pretty forced here.
Feb-05-07  IMDONE4: <Honza Cervenka> <who> I didnt see the check on c6, I wasnt analyzing it deeply. Thx for pointing those variations out. I was just looking for improvements, hard to believe that Gligoric would miss something that simple.
