| | Dec-02-08 Dionyseus chessforum  Nov-16-08 K Lie vs Bu Xiangzhi, 2008 
| |
|
boo1: This game is the main reason why Lie has a 3242 rp after three games. He's known for his unorthodox style, and it worked to perfection in this game.

| |
|
boo1: After 22.Qd3 the game is over. 25...Bxf3+ is forced. 27...Rxg3+ isn't forced, but Mame is dead lost already, and going for the perpetual was probably best in practice.

boo1: chessgangsta:
