Jun-16-13 Carlsen vs Karjakin, 2013

|
Lovuschka: 44.S:g6+ and 45.R:g7 wins a crucial pawn and creates an evil passed pawn, which is probably why Karjakin resigned.

| |
|
Lovuschka: 32.Rb7?! R:b7 33.Be8 mate would have been astonishing, but probably Timman was afraid of 32.-S:d4 33.R:b8 S:c6 and Black still can go on for a bit.

| |
|
Lovuschka: Of course Steinitz should have set the trap 52...Ba8 53.Ba4+ Kc8 54.Rc2 e2!? [DIAGRAM] and now 55.Kf2 (or even 55.h3) wins, but after a mistake Black could deliver mate. Although, as it is here, in a correspondence game White would see it...

| |
|
Lovuschka: 10.Sc3!! gxh4 11.Sd5! and White should have a dangerous attack.

Is Black to move lost? Not if Kramnik is Black: See from move 17. [DIAGRAM]
And what is the easiest way to win for Black now? See move 24. Wonderful play by the former world champion!

Lovuschka: After 16.f5 (better was 16.Se4):
[DIAGRAM]
Is White winning? (Black to move)
16...Bxf5!! 17.Rxf5 dxe5 and Black wins back the piece on a3, leading to Black advantage (for example, after 20.Qxa3 Qb6+ 21.Kh1 b4 22.Qc1 bxc3 23.Rxe5 White still could have played, Wiener ...
