Oct-09-05		rasputin72: hello,rasputin from uruguay

Oct-09-05		sellappa: computer gives a slight adv. to black with d5-d4. Hm... 1. = (-0.24): 10...d5-d4 11.e3xd4 Rf8-e8+ 12.Bd3-e2 Nc6xd4 13.Nf3xd4 Bc5xd4 14.0-0 Qd8-b6 15.Be2-f3 Bd4-e5 16.Bf4xe5 Re8xe5

Oct-09-05		CapablancaFan: Moro can't play d4 b/c after the ensuing exchanges Topa had the little suprise of bxh7+ waiting!

Oct-09-05		Petrov: Capa: ur good damn right man :))

Oct-09-05		sofouuk: if they have exchanged a pair of knights the chance of Topalov losing is zero

Oct-09-05		winter 1963: "Did moro play 9... Nxd5 or exd5 immediately? Playchess has 9... Nxd5, while chessgames has 9... exd5." I thought this audio commentator said it was ...Nxd5 also.

Oct-09-05		marco antonio: It´s a good oportunity move castle

Oct-09-05		biserburov: dori vesko da specheli tozi turnir toi ne e igral mach s kasparov,ostava golemiq vypros moge li da go bie .....

Oct-09-05		MTal: petrov, I think moro was thinking B a5+, but now that bishop is fairly useless there.

Oct-09-05		virtuozo: mamka my toq 6te se opuva mai-ama 6te gutne i posle e lesno za nakraq sme si ostavili adams i polgar-napred vesko bulgaiq cqla sega tebe gleda

Oct-09-05		HammerTime: Black is trying to mess up this game! I suggest Moro move his B to g4

Oct-09-05		Darkhorse12: Topa's h pawn goes all the way to h6.

Oct-09-05		emevev: MTal, za6to pi6e6 na Petrov ma English????? :)))))))

Oct-09-05		Darkhorse12: Noooooooooo, topa should have not castled, should have played his h pawn all the way to h6.

Oct-09-05		kibik71bg: Miss 9...Nxd5 10. Nxd5 thats game is incorrect

Oct-09-05		virtuozo: bisere ami to4no vesko s pobedata si predi nqkolko meseca otkaza kasparov ot 6aha

Oct-09-05		Sneaky: Bxh7+ is a fantasy. If now 11...d4 then 12.exd4 Nxd4 13.Nxd4 Qxd4 and go ahead, play Bxh7+ I dare ya, ;-) The same thing was true a move ago except that Black could also slip ...Re8+ into the sequence if he wanted to. I think Moro doesn't want to just give up his "weakness" as then the game will fizzle into dull equality.

Oct-09-05		E N I G M A: Bisercho,Kasparov se otkaza ot igrata sled zaguba ot nashiha,ako pomnish...Neshto mi prilichash na edin s nik "Karpov",ama da vidim...

Oct-09-05		biserburov: igrata e ravna

Oct-09-05		Nesebar: biserburov, ako Vesko specheli tozi turnir, toi e noviat svetoven shampion. Izobshto ne e nujno da igrae s Kasparov i da mu se dokazva za kakvoto i da bilo. Da ne govorim, che toi go pobedi poslednia put, kogato igraha. No tova e suvsem druga tema za razgovor. Vajnoto e nashiat da bie tazi vecher.

Oct-09-05		GrandMasterP: ami toi nali go bi v linares

Oct-09-05		thomaspaine: <Sneaky> No, you have the wrong line. ...d4, then Bxh7+, and if king takes, Qc2 and white gets the bishop on c5.

Oct-09-05		Petrov: Mtal: yeas man, i think i was better Qb6 with pressure on b2 pawn, and than Toppy is forced to move Qc2 and after Moro s pawn on d4 is safe for a couple of moves

Oct-09-05		acirce: Black doesn't usually have much problem in this line, does he?

Oct-09-05		bob000: Moro offers a draw but Topalov goes in for the kill.
