Mar-15-11  fab4: 18.Qa8 Qd4 looks very strong.

21.. Kd7!.. like the way Naka uses control of the white squares for attack and defence.

33..Qc8 and 34.. Nc7 black looks ok now to me.

40..a4 .. 40.. Rg2 41.Qh7

47.Qc2 ( can white go after the kt on c7 with Bd6/Qa7 ect..? )

48. d5?! this does'nt seem to turn out well ..can't see anything tho. Black looks winning.

Mar-15-11  fab4: Maybe instead of 46.Qa4 46.Bd6 intending Qc7 ect..

Anyway great game and well played Nakamura.

Mar-15-11  Penguincw: Well,after this game,Nakamura has a even score in the rapid section in this tournament.
