 | | YouRang: Kasim is hoping to end up in a position where all the pieces are gone, except a lone white bishop -- and that lone white bishop won't be enough to force a pawn to promote. I think... |

 | | keypusher: Is that a dancing rook I see? |
|
Oct-14-05
| | YouRang: Kasim must have been hoping for Rg1 instead of Rc2. |

 | | chessgames.com: Thanks to everybody for participating in past few weeks with our coverage of the FIDE 2005 World Championship. We look forward to doing this again with other upcoming matches and tournaments. |

 | | tamar: A nice win for Leko, but he will be remembering the missed win in round 1 against Topalov for a long time. |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | Monoceros: I was expecting 48. Rg1 as well. 48. Rc2 is a wonderful little tactical shot that I did not see at all - a voluntary fork. Well done Leko. |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | me to play: Well, I am glad Leko finished on an "up" note at least. |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | underrated: <chessgames.com> your welcome! and thanks to you... |

 | | Gypsy: <tamar: A nice win for Leko, but he will be remembering the missed win in round 1 against Topalov for a long time.> Yes, the dynamics of the tournament would take off completely differently. |

| Oct-14-05 | | TheSlid: <YouRang> Marty Feldman! Nice Avatar! Am I suffering from deja vu here or what? |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | HammerTime: atlast! |

| | YouRang: Hey, I was able to play Kasim's final position in Little Chess Partner, and I managed to save a draw by repetition! (Of course, Little Chess Parter is a bit of a dolt sometimes - I doubt Leko would have allowed it.) <TheSlid> Thanks, although I have another Avatar in mind (I emailed it to cg.com). So, this one may be temporary. |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | HammerTime: i think my avatar is the best among the lot! :) |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | AlexanderMorphy: well done Leko, he provides us with the only win and arguably the only interesting game of the round! |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | HammerTime: bye all until next time! |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | Akavall: Morozevich - Adams was a good game, I liked the finish :) |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | gazzawhite: Should that last move say 48.Rcc2, instead of 48.Rc2? I'm not sure exactly how the notation works, since 48.Rgc2 is illegal. |
|
| Oct-14-05 | | Akavall: If its illigal you don't have to worry about it, I am very positive. So 48.Rc2 is fine. |

 | | suenteus po 147: How ironic. Leko has been letting me down all tournament, and yet I let him down in the last round by predicting this game as a draw.... |
|
| Oct-15-05 | | lentil: <gazzawhite> 48.Rc2 is sufficient because only the c-Rook can make the move legally: the R/g2 is pinned. |
|

 | | lostemperor: Though, in the predictioncontest, I was wrong on Topalov - Polgar, this game I predicted 1-0 in 48 moves;) |
|
| Nov-16-05 | | Goran: Young Canadian IM Thomas Roussel-Roozmon did excellent commentary of this game for "Chess Chronicle" magazine. With the owner's permission I have posted this article on my blog http://chesslodge.blogspot.com/2005... |
|
| Nov-16-05 | | euripides: <Goran> thanks for the excellent link. |
|
| Sep-08-06 | | Chess Lou Zer: Here's another game to look at before voting in Arno Nickel vs. The World. |
