| Jan-31-10 | | newzild: Wow. Just wow. I hadn't seen this game before and am truly impressed. Carlsen has just uncorked a very interesting piece sacrifice at Corus, by the way. |

|
| Jan-31-10 | | randomsac: This is just wild. I though for sure white would win with those pawns completely trapping the black king. Great game. |

| Jan-31-10 | | Eduardo Leon: Games like this renew my passion for the Sicilian Defense. I once dreamt there was a computer analysis that demonstrated the Sicilian lost by force, yet in practice nobody could follow it because of the damned tree of variations. |

| Jan-31-10 | | SirChrislov: This game was my #1 vote in the best games-of-2009 contest ran by tpstar and iron maiden. It's one of those games you have to carefully analyze at home because there's no way I can understand it by just blitzing through it quickly like I suppose most people do. Welcome to the site <Jane>. |

 | | kevin86: Is this game legit? It looks like a plant to me. Why would black expose the rook to attack and white not take it-especially with check? Then white continues to play on despite a rook down. |

| Jun-09-10 | | DoneMac: An unfortunate lost for Morozevich as someone mentioned 26.Rxf8! - this wins by force... after Rxf8 27. Qxe5 threatens Be6+ winning the Queen or mates - even if Black wants to avoid mate then Black would need to play Rh7 - leading to a tremendous material advantage for White... Note, in the game continuation 27... Rh7 was a really good practical try for Black, so it wasn't a scam move but perhaps a prayer to the Chess Gods, though 28.Kd2 should also lead to a win but just not as clean... What I really like about this game is White's opening idea of 13. Nf4! this move appears to be very dangerous to Black, it's not clear but possible that the game continuation of 14.Nfe6 is not best but certainly fantastic - Black's mistake may have been trying to untangle via 23...Bc5 perhaps 23...Qa+ was better... makes me wonder what time was on the clocks |

| Jul-19-11 | | hellopolgar: i can't believe moro missed 26.Rxf8, i think it's time pressure. i actually watched this game live on chess bomb and i recall big swings in Stockfish's evaluations. |

| | bharat123: A very good game for tactics training. Black defended well though 26.Rxf8 wins by force as pointed out by DoneMac. A score of 140 is a good feeling. |
|
| Jun-05-12 | | micartouse: Black's maneuver on moves 50-52 is very funny. |

| Jul-07-12 | | LoveThatJoker: Thank you to <An Englishman> for referencing this game in one of his posts on this game earlier today: I A Nataf vs M Vachier-Lagrave, 2006 This game is an Immortal!

 | | keypusher: Just took a look at this game, thanks to Mataalko. When I got to Black's 27th I assumed something was wrong with the game display. Good Lord! |

| Apr-22-13 | | Overgod: After Rxf8! Moro is up 22 pawns according to Houdini 3. I set up the position against Houdini 3 just now, and Houdini 3, 64 bit, running on a quadcore cpu, resigned after we played 5 moves. Just to torture the machine, I rejected the resignation and played on. White ended up being up a whole queen, with mate to follow. This was after a mere 6 moves. Poor Moro. This was one of his best games, worthy of being recognized in the annals of chess history, until he missed the forced win on move 26. Now, it's just an embarrassing loss. |
