chessdom analysis of these game.

47... Rb6 ( So spent 30 minutes calculating the consequences of the double-edged 47... Rg4 and preferred this one.)

60.Rh8 Nc5 Another mutual time trouble passed.The game should finish in a draw but after 6 hours of play with two heavy time troubles anything may still happen.

61.Rd8+ Kc3 62.Kd1 Nd3 63.Rc8+ Kd4 Now Black is winning.

64.Nd6 Rg1+ 65.Kc2 Rc1+ 66.Kb3 Rxc8 67.Nxc8 e3 White resigned. An impressive game by the young Asian. <His play still lacks maturity but he managed to outplay his experienced opponent several times after spilling his advantage due to inaccuracies. His talent and will for the win really impress and we may expect of him to become one of the new young chess stars. !!!!!!!!! 0-1 >

  parmetd: unbelievable will to win!
Jan-17-09   Kinghunt: After 64... Rg1+, black has the edge, but white should be able to hold a draw with 65. Kd2. After 65...e3+ 66. Ke2 Re1+ 67. Kf3 Ne5+ 68. Kg2 e2 69. Nf5+ Kd3 70. Rd8+ and white can hold with accurate play. But the text move, 65. Kc2??, loses spectacularly, as So proves.
