Jul-10-12 | | uscfratingmybyear: 47.Qb8+ is a slight improvement for white. |
|
Jul-11-12 | | rogl: <uscfratingmybyear: 47.Qb8+ is a slight improvement for white.> Yes, but only slight...
On another note, without his pesky a-pawn Magnus could play 58.Qg8+ for an immediate draw. |
|
Jul-11-12 | | shivasuri4: <rogl>, how so? The king still has the h6 square available after 58. Qg8+ Rxg8. |
|
Jul-12-12 | | rogl: OOOPS, brain fart. |

 | | HeMateMe: Moro was able to do this in five minute chess. |

Jan-17-13 | | abuzic: After <33...Rc8>, the white B is lost anyway or else black threatens ...Rc1+, ...Rd1+ or ...Bd5+ with mating attack; after 34.Qb5, 34...Rxc6 wins straitaway. After <37.g5>, 37...Rdd2 should finish the game. After <41.h4>, 41...Nf4+ should win the Q and the game. After <42.Qb1+>, 42...Kh5 keeps black pressure. After <44...Ne7>, 45.Qh8! is another counter attack: 45.Qh8 Kg6 46.Qe8+ Kg7 47.h5 h6 48.gxh6+ Rxh6 ... After <46...Kf8>, 47.Qb8+ (<rogl>) white wins a R and the game, probably. But this was a blitz game... |
|
Jan-17-13 | | Chesschatology: Nice annotations, <abuzic:>: it's funny how in some Q vs. pieces endgames with open Ks and no time on the clock, a pentium with Chessmaster '95 on it would probably outplay Carlsen and Morozevich. Comforting in a way. |
|
Jan-17-13 | | abuzic: <Chesschatology>
Absolutely
Except for the Ne7 blunder and the counterplay, most of the plans are suggested by a computer |

Jan-17-13 | | kevin86: White cannot stop the mate without losing the queen. |
|
Jan-17-13 | | chesssalamander: Great game by Moro! When he is on, he is ON! |

Jan-17-13 | | drnooo: mmm...since 06 neither has beaten the other in classical that's quite a while folks not sure exactly what it means if anything, but in eight years it has been a classical standoff, pretty amazing, especially when you tally the rapid scores of this pair against one another, speaking very well for just how scary Moro can be if he's healthy |

Jan-17-13 | | chesssalamander: Cemoblanca, the heat is on! Moro can bring it and bring it fast! |

 | | JointheArmy: <Moro was able to do this in five minute chess.> Even better. Moro was able to do this in 3' + 2'' chess. The video link above clearly shows the time control if anyone is interested. |
|
Apr-30-14 | | cplyakap: 47.Qb8+ and c7 or d6 rook burned.Did i overlook anything? |
|
Apr-30-14 | | Nerwal: <47.Qb8+ and c7 or d6 rook burned.Did i overlook anything?> No. We can see on the video linked above Morozevich realized he had blundered, but he had already released the piece. |
|
Dec-18-16 | | Saniyat24: Black could have won in 36 moves... |
|
Nov-27-20 | | M.yasser: 27 is a wrong move ? ..how pawn took pawn by this move ? |

May-17-21 | | ZackyMuhammad: After 34. Qb5, black has winning if he play 34. ... Rd1+, because 35. Kg2, 35. ... Rxc6, 36. Qxc6 36. Bd5+. |
