 | | scormus: What a wonderfully controlled game bu Judit. A masterclass of positional strategy |
|
Sep-03-11 | | chillowack: HeMateMe, I thought the Ruy Exchange was 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Bxc6, which is different from the Berlin. (I could be wrong though.) |
|
Sep-03-11 | | kia0708: bravo Judith, a brilliant game ! |
|
Sep-03-11
 | | perfidious: <chillowack> The line you give is the Exchange Spanish. |
|
Sep-03-11 | | coolchess1: Congrats to Judit for an excellent win. I hope she goes all the way and wins the cup and also returns to the top 10 in the near future. In her second game, she has to be careful by not being too passive nor aggressive but instead look to find a right balance for counter attack & defence and head calmly for a draw. (I hope this is possible for Judit:), wish you all the best for the second game. |

Sep-03-11 | | Gshock: congrats to the white lady..classic moves.. |
|
Sep-03-11 | | sevenseaman: On queening of the 'a' P, 'The Black K will need to catch a 'taxi' to come to the aid of his Ps' was the fun comment by the expert commenting on the game. |
|
Sep-04-11 | | chillowack: perfidious: Ruy Lopez and Spanish are synonymous. |
|
Sep-04-11 | | Platinum2900: Cheers Judit! |

 | | kingscrusher: Wow, this seems to be a very instructive passed 'a' pawn demonstration. |
|
Sep-04-11 | | Eduardo Bermudez: Congrats for Judith, beating Holofernes !! |

 | | perfidious: <chillowack: perfidious: Ruy Lopez and Spanish are synonymous.> Um, yes......one might say I'm familiar-even I, weak player that I am, have a game in this DB as Black in the Open Spanish. |
|
Sep-04-11 | | Amulet: Is this not the Steinitz variation of the Ruy Lopez on the black side? |
|
Sep-04-11
 | | perfidious: <Amulet> 3....Nf6 is the Berlin variation. There are two forms of Steinitz: the old form with the immediate 3....d6, played at even the highest levels until about 1910, and 4....d6, known as the Steinitz Deferred, or more commonly, Modern Steinitz, whioh supplanted the old line. |

|
Sep-04-11 | | chillowack: Sorry, perfidious: it's just that when I posted the moves of the Exchange Ruy, you said "chillowack, that's the Exchange Spanish," as if in correction. |
|
Sep-04-11 | | Amulet: Thanks <perfidious> for pointing that out. |
|
Sep-04-11
 | | perfidious: <chiilowack> No problem mate! <Amulet> The terminology can get confusing, and never more so than what I've seen here at CG-there are lines which seem to have twelve dozen names attached to them. Bit different than when I took up chess forty years ago. |

Sep-05-11 | | pawnexpress: hoodrobin: An interesting game; Polgar's play was strong and simple. Explain why it was simple. |
|
Sep-06-11 | | beenthere240: The dynamics were like an exchang RL, except that the traditional dynamics are to hold black's 4 queenside pawns static and create a passed king side pawn. Here white won a queenside pawn. I thought it was a marvelous game and never imagined that it was all plan to lure black's king to a8. |
|
Dec-07-11 | | IoftheHungarianTiger: This was the first game I ever followed live - it was a blast! I only started watching around move 20, but I was so impressed with both players! And it was exciting! Reading through the comments, I'm not sure how early many people here could see the outcome, but at my (low) level of play, I wasn't comfortable of the outcome until just a move or two before Karjakin's resignation. |
