Apr-12-12		twinlark: Ouch! What was Peter thinking? Looks like Jako got into Moro's mean mindset after he was dismantled yesterday.

Apr-12-12		LoveThatJoker: For 8. Nxe5 see Khalifman vs Topalov, 2002 LTJ

Apr-12-12		amaurobius: If white plays 26 Rxd1 Bxd1 27 Kxd1 Rd8+ 28 Kc2, how does black finish off? I'm sure there's a killer somewhere there for black but I'm not seeing it.

Apr-12-12		Sastre: <amaurobius> 26.Rxd1 Bxd1+ 27.Kxd1 Rd8+ 28.Kc2 Qd2+ 29.Kb3 Rb8+ 30.Ka4 Qc2+ 31.Ka3 Qb2+ 32.Ka4 a5.

Apr-13-12		amaurobius: <Sastre> 32...a5 I like it! Cheers.

Apr-13-12		shivasuri4: Continuing on <Sastre>'s post, 33. a3 would be met by the startling 33...Rb4+. If 34.Ka5, Qxa3#. If 34. axb4, Qa2#. Finally 34. Qxb4 is countered by the simple axb4. Now 35. axb4 is met by Qa2#. Lovely demolition this by Jakovenko!

Apr-13-12		roninmb: 8. Nxe5 was better than e3 / regarding Khalifman-Topalov after 8... a6 white should play 9.Da4 instead of retreating Na3./ Problems started with "active" 11.Bc7 instead of developing Bd3. 14... Bxc5 or a6 seems to be better than Qh6. After 17... Bg4 game was over!
