Mar-13-11  kingfu: Good One!

Botvinnik played this way back when. I tried this on Christiansen and went far into the end game before losing. I think it was about move 20.

  Penguincw: From www.amberchess20.com :

< Carlsen’s rapid win with the black pieces won the € 1,000 Game of the Day Prize >

So far,Grischuk has won € 1,000 and Carlsen has won € 1,000 .

Jun-03-11  kappertjes: That is a nice analysis and discussion by GM Seirawan. Many of those GOTD vids are worthwhile actually. I really liked the Carlsen-Grischuk rapid match discussion too. Got to opportunity to apply the lessons of that one only a week after watching that analysis.

  Cobax24: Great and instructive Ending by Magnus, letting his black pawns so active! And his Bishop as a long distance efective weapon, way to go to deal with the rook -rook -bishop ending , and the move 28.-...c4 , opens up the board for black
