 | | perfidious: This comparison is perfectly silly, the more so as it's a mere blitz game; then there's the fact that neither of these players has ever made 2800, so I've no idea whom you're talking about. |

| Jul-23-12 | | vinidivici: what happen if 11.Nxd8? |
|
| Jul-23-12 | | hellopolgar: <perfidious> I meant that Nakamura, being a 2800 caliber player, completely outplayed his opponent, who is 2700ish. Black never had a positive evaluation according to my engine. |
|
| Jul-23-12 | | vinidivici: After 11.Nxd8?? |
|
| Jul-23-12 | | mprodrigues: after 11.Nxd8 there's at least a draw by perpetual, 11... Bf2+ 12.Kd2 Be3+ |
|
| Jul-23-12 | | SimonWebbsTiger: as noted, this is the famous Seirawan drawing variation (Sax-Seirawan, 1988) which revived this particular line. Here 16...Qd7 is described as "a bit passive" by Vigus in <the Pirc in Black and White>. He prefers 16...Kd7!? or 16...Na6 (Lev Alburt's idea). |

| Jul-25-12 | | zealouspawn: look,
no blitz game illustrates the difference between a 2700 and 2800 player.. (although Nakamura is an excellent chess player) |

| | perfidious: <zealouspawn: look,
no blitz game illustrates the difference between a 2700 and 2800 player....> Or any other single game, really. This, and other rubbish, is why it was time to say <goodbye> to <polgar>. |

| Jul-26-12 | | master of defence: What happens after 18.Kxg4? |
|
| Jul-26-12 | | Riverbeast: This was a very well played blitz game.... |
|
| Feb-03-13 | | fokers13: 18..Qxe6+. |
|
| Feb-03-13 | | King Radio: 18...Qxe6 loses the queen. After 18.Kxg4 then 18...Nd4 |
