Dec-18-08		Karpova: Nice exchange sacrifice on move 15 (according to Rybka 3 from chessok a novelty) removing a central pawn and White's good bishop. According to Rybka 3 White made the following mistakes: 24.c5?! (instead of 24.Nb3) 25.Qe1?! (instead of 25.Qd1) 31.f4? (instead of 31.c6) 32.Nb3?! (instead of 32.Rxc3) Black missed 33...Qf7! (though 32...Nxc1 was not bad). The whole line goes: 33...Qf7 34.Nd4 Nxc1 35.Rxc1 Qd5 36.Qd1 White resigned a bit too early. Rybka 3 comments: <Looks like white still could play in this game. It is un-pretty. But black should find some proper moves to be able win.> Source: http://www.chessok.com/broadcast/?k...
