jhelix70: There is definite danger of losing if white doesn't take action soon to neutralize blacks kingside majority. Whites idea is a good one, but the right way to draw was g3 first, then h4.

jhelix70: <<When does this tournament end?>> LOL.
I imagine these debates will continue here until the actual world championship match. Then, they will continue but at least on a different thread.

jhelix70: Beautiful endgame play here by Korchnoi, from a materially even position. The final position looked like a draw to me at first, but black wins by bringing his king to g1 and his bishop to f1, forcing the exchange of bishops. A neat finish.

jhelix70: Nice find. It is more fun to marvel at these kinds of position real games than in games Alekhine made up.
