 | | Marmot PFL: I didn't even see any threat to h7, but in a game I played vs an IM once (paired way too high), I spent a few tempi to attack h7 and he did what Aronian just did - move his king calmly to the center. My threats came to nothing and he rolled me in the ending. This looks very = though. |

 | | Ulhumbrus: A gradual pawn advance by e4, g4 and f5 may win, if Black does not find a satisfactory reply to it. |
|
Nov-06-10
| | Marmot PFL: Black has d4 under fire, so e4 won't be easy. |
|
Nov-06-10
| | Marmot PFL: Maybe in the ending white could hold the center and play g4-g5 backed by the rooks. Black also has b5 or c5 plans though. |

| | Ulhumbrus: Bb1, Rd3 and Rc1-d1 is one possible way to begin the plan of g4, e4 and f5. |
|
Nov-06-10
| | Ulhumbrus: Perhaps the purpose of g4 is to double the Rooks by Rd3 and Rc1-d1 whilst preventing ...f5 in reply |
|
Nov-06-10
| | Ulhumbrus: One conceivable plan for White, and therefore one potential White threat is that of Rd3 followed by Rg1, g5 and g6 attacking the f7 pawn and so undermining the e6 pawn |
|

| | Ulhumbrus: Although Aronian's King may seem safer on the Queen side square of c8 in the event that White tries the plan of g5 and g6, White has an alternative plan, that of e4 and f5, and in that event it is the Queen side which becomes less safe for Black's King. |

 | | SCUBA diver: This is a clever plan for black. He puts his King into safety and will make the King side the battle ground with white King exposed. |

 | | okba12: any body can explain this marsh of the blacks king 'is it making sense? |

| | Ulhumbrus: <okba12: any body can explain this marsh of the blacks king 'is it making sense?> Black would like his King on that side of the board where it is safer. |
|

| | Ulhumbrus: One way for White to lose is 37 f5 exf5 38 Qxf5+ Kb8 39 Qxf7?? Rf8 ponning and winning White's Queen. One way for Black to lose is 37 Rd3 b5 38 axb5 cxb5 39 Bxe6+ fxe6 40 Qxc7 mate. |

 | | Eyal: 38...Qb4 looks like a strong Sofia rule plan. |

 | | waustad: Is the last king move one of those where they were really just telling the board that it is a draw? |

| | Ulhumbrus: With Black's King on c8 White can consider the plan of e4 and f5 instead of g5 and g6. Perhaps Wang Hao considers it too risky to advance his pawns. However White's positional advantage may be great enough to for such a plan to succeed. |
