May-24-15  Ulhumbrus: After 16 f4 the advance Re3 will obstruct the queen bishop's defence of the f4 pawn. This suggests first 16 Re3 with perhaps Rg3

  HeMateMe: Isn't black winning a piece here with 19...g5?

  Dionysius1: None of the computer programmes the tournament site uses for analysis suggests 19...g5 http://khantymansiysk2015.fide.com/... I can't see why not though.
May-24-15  raphi45: 20 Nh6 gets the piece back with interest
May-24-15  Marmot PFL: <Isn't black winning a piece here with 19...g5?>

No 20 Rf1 gh4 21 Nxe7 Qxe7 22 Bg5

May-24-15  raphi45: oops, sorry for my hallucination 's making you guys start your engines (gentlemen). Unlike Jobova's, my moves are as bad as they look.
May-24-15  Fanques Fair: 23- Bxc4 is bad. Much better is 23- d4, Nd3 , 24- Bxc4 , Nxb2 , 25- Bxb2, Rxb2 , 26- Bd3 , with a defensible position.
May-25-15  EhsanBalani: It's obvious why 19... g5 is not a correct move; because then: 20.Qg4 gxf4 21.Qg7#.
May-25-15  posoo: lol now dats THREE difrent suggestions to combat g5 and i don't trust ANY of em.

I do not have a favrable experence with da moslam world so i am not inclined to trust ehsanbalooni. but maybe he is rite!

wat i do NOT like is how it is "ovious" to him. best beleve he pored over da board for hours!

  perfidious: No-one cares what <EhsanBalani>'s beliefs are; we are here to discuss this game, not indulge in bigotry.

While it is true that the suggestion made by the above-named kibitzer is flawed, we all started somewhere.

May-25-15  EhsanBalani: Who cares what assssssholeeees like "posoo" and "perfidious" say. We are here to talk about the game, and enjoy it, not more.

  perfidious: <Ehsan> I agreed with you, and told <poopoo> that he is just what you said.

If you think I said something bad about you, please read my first comment again.

May-25-15  EhsanBalani: <perfidious> Hello bro; excuse me for misunderstanding you. :-)
