Playing White, can you win this on-line against Crafty? (link below): http://www.chessvideos.tv/endgame-t... |

| Feb-14-10 | | WhiteRook48: dude, 36 Qxf4 is an easy win |
|
| Feb-14-10 | | chillowack: <Once: Presumably 36. Ne2 was played because So was afraid of this line: 36. Qxd1 Rf2 37. Qf1 Rxf1 38. Kxf1 Qxc3> Except that 38.Rf1 (rather than 38.Kf1) prevents 38...Qc3, because of 39.Rf8#. Therefore I, too, wonder why So didn't play the simple 36.Qd1, which looks totally winning to me. |

 | | Once: <chillowack> Good call! Ne2 is looking weaker by the minute... |
|
| Feb-15-10 | | mysql: How about 36. Ra2? |

 | | kevin86: And mate next move by 37  xf1  f2#. |
|
| Mar-02-10 | | CedricDF: Yep, 34. ..., Nd1 is a swindle that succeeded. Wesley's reply is a reflex action, similar to what we do in blitz. Seeing the Queen undefended after a rook move by Anish, he moves it down to where it will be defended by the rook. These moves always happen during time scramble. But let's go back to black's 8th move:
8. ..., Bg4. The bishop move which hampered the normal development of white's pieces. 9. Bxe4 easily wins a pawn for white. What is weird is, as it was in the opening, the position is still uncomplicated and there should be plenty of time. |
|
| Mar-24-10 | | MartinII: easy for you to say people. even Kramnik missed the Mate in 1 in this N+Q pattern. So missed the Mate in 2, which is 2 moves deeper! think again guys, before you post. The mate is not easy to find in a GM's mind, as they use pre stored knowledge, and this pattern is not embedded strongly compared to other N+R or N+Q patterns. |

| Mar-24-10 | | wierba: 35. Rxd1 Rf1+ 36. Kxf1 Qxe3 37. Ne2 <37...ba? 37...c6? 38. Bc1... and 39. B:d5> 37... Qg5 38. ab ab 39. Bc1 e3. 40. Kg1 c6. 41 Rd3 and easy whites win |
|
| Mar-24-10 | | MartinII: I followed this game live, and I remembered that even in chess servers like ICC or chessdom or FICS or playchess, nobody saw the sting of Nd1 and Qg3 moves of black! and not 1, yes, not 1 commented on the hidden swindle of GMGiri while the game was relayed live. lets all accept this, we also all missed this trap while sitting in comfort with our engines, and saw only the trap when our engines showed +M2 when GMSo played Ne2. |

 | | Richard Taylor: Brilliant game by Black - who said the Petrov's was drawish!! |
|
| May-03-10 | | funkymihir: 36.Qxf4 and after queen takes then the rook captures at D1 and the game is over as white has enough compensation for the queen |

 | | Brandon plays: lol, this is a pretty epic fail. I'm not saying that I wouldn't (or haven't) played such a blunder before. But it's just a fairly simple tactic on one of these chess tactics site. I'd give it a 1700 rating. |
|
| May-19-10 | | Xico: Mar-02-10 CedricDF : 9 Bxe4?-dxe4, 10. Rxe4-Bxf3, 11 gxf3(the queen has to protect d4)- f5, 12 Rf4 (or lose d4)- 0-0, and black has excellent play. |
|
| Jul-04-10 | | DiskFunkTionaL: Attribute the loss to a well placed Bishop at a3. It's so disgusting, did he commit an opening sin? |

| Sep-18-11 | | iking: from grischuk vs svidler game quote: <eatwad: <kellmano> There's an old book by Simon Webb where he suggests just that - when your opponent is in time trouble use long thinks to come up with 3 move sequences or so that you can bash out in blitz...then go into a long think again, and repeat. I've tried it myself and find it somewhat effective.> if wesley did use this method of moves while GIRI is in TIME trouble .... he could win the game! <Feb-14-10 mysql: How about "So commits Hara-Giri"? :o) > this comment of <mysql> was never forgotten by Wesley .... |

LOL . We have no time to analyse it in seconds time .... peace... |
|
| Sep-18-11 | | GalileoPiccolino: Tsk, tsk...deal with reality, that's the real deal. Check out So - Grandelius, could be another Petroff, I guess. |

I could be wrong but I don't have a premium subscription to go search his previous post so I could just be hallucinating.:D |
|
| Sep-02-12 | | kimvot: It pays to play on even on a lost position. Grandmasters do commit blunders. I say a win is still a win. Go Giri. |
|
| Mar-08-13 | | tolitz4x: Wesley's 35.Qc1 is the culprit...(its so passive) i think as far as i can see "Qe2" is playable and defensive anticipating black's 35....."Rf2" truly Giri is wesley's JINX!!!! S-W-I-N-D-L-E |
