Kibitzer's Corner
Jul-21-10  zanshin: Not a good tournament so far for Negi. <26.Bxh6> looks like an inaccuracy, and <28.Rab1> (instead of 28.Be4) was the last straw.
Jul-21-10  falso contacto: not a good game by negi.
caruana found it easy.
Jul-22-10  ozmikey: White's position already looks horrible by move 20. It looked very strange for White to strand his knight out on a4 like he did, I wonder if 14. Nac3 was better? OK, Black has the tactic 14...Bxh3, but White can desperado his way to material equality by 15. Bxf6 Bxg2 16. Bxe7!, after which he doesn't look much worse, if at all.
Jul-22-10  zanshin: <ozmikey> A Rybka 4 comparison of the two knight moves shows little numerical difference, but I think the <14.Nac3> line is more interesting.

Move 14 for White:
