Dec-05-05   Ybrevo: How nice to see the Yugoslav Attack at high level chess again! For many years 7. f3, a6!? was considered bad for black. This is the second game so far at the World Cup with a beautiful and quick win for the black pieces (think Tiviakov had the other). Does anyone know where the improvement lies?
Dec-05-05   Ybrevo: Error! The other game was Khalifman vs. Inarkiev. Sorry about that ...
Dec-10-05   belgradegambit: 11 a4 is supposed to be stronger. then
...b5, 12 Nd5! is an old line but perhaps there have been improvements.

  notyetagm: The above nasty <DISCOVERED PIN> 27 ... Qc3xRd3! is a good example of what can happen if White does not move his White c1-king off of the dangerous <HALF-OPEN> c-file when he castles queenside in these Open Sicilian positions.
