| Mar-12-05 | | Zivildiener: the position before 26. ...c3 is insane! Qxe4 looks safe, and even Fritz evaluates -3, but after a few moves (introduced by Qh8+ Kf7 f5) he slowly decreases the evaluation (e.g. Tc6 -1 but after Qh5+ Ng6 e6 Rxe6 Kxe6 Re2 Qxe2 Qxg6+ Kd7 Rd1+ Qxd1+ it's down to =0 and eventually climbs for white
a way for a draw would have been Qxe4 Qh8+ Kf7 f5 Bd8!? (a 'safe' 0.00 evaluation) |

 | | Richard Taylor: 9...g6 looks suspect -maybe 9....h6. But a fascinating game. Maia played well = maybe she could have survived with Qxe4 as suggested by Zivildiener - hard to see OTB - hse was a move or so away from gettng Boris! |
|
| Mar-12-05 | | Double D: I think this game indicates Gulko's great chess strength and it is a shame to the chess championship series that the Soviets denied him the opportunity to compete for the title. He was born in Eastern Germany, so I'm sure there was bias against him. |
|
| Mar-12-05 | | Saruman: <aragorn69>"But what is so wrong with 16.-♗xg5 17.gxh7+ ♔h8 ?" The inbetweenovich 17.gxf7+ is much stronger.
17.gxf7+ ♔xf7 18.♘gxe4 (threatening ♘d6+) dxe4 19.♘xe4 ♗e7 20.♖xh7+ ♔f8 21.♘c3 and white should win by utilizing the h-file and the weak squares around the black king. |
|
| Mar-14-05 | | aragorn69: Right, <Saruman>, how could I be so blind... Thx. And BTW it seems you have a way with words, don't you ? ;-)) |
|
| Mar-14-05 | | Saruman: <aragorn69> Well, "inbetweenovich" is an invention of mine and I am quite proud of it. |
|
| Mar-14-05 | | hintza: I think <inbetweenovich> shall become a common piece of chess jargon around here rather soon! :-) |

 | | WannaBe: I know the pawns are suppose to take 'towards' the center, but why does the h-pawn take?? (16...hxg6) Anything wrong with the move 16...fxg6 |
|
| Oct-07-09 | | randomsac: Exciting game. A very well timed attack. I guess hesitating would have led to doom. |

 | | Phony Benoni: <WannaBe> There are a few reasons to prefer 16...hxg6 in this position.
click for larger view1) 16...fxg6 opens up the a2-g8 diagonal, giving White opportunity of checking along it. The e6 square may become a hole as well, though that's a bit remote. 2) When White has opened the h-file against a fianchetto formation, a common line of defense for Black is to play ...Kg7 and ...Rh8, hoping to neutralize the pressure with trades on the file. 3) With Black's rook having moved away, he has no particular use for a half-open f-file. 4) "Capturing toward the center" in this case is not so much related to the h-pawn as to the f-pawn. You don't want to take it away from influencing the center without a specific reason, and Black doesn't have one here. Is he going to flee White's attack by moving his king via f7 and e6? |

 | | kevin86: rare for a top player to be mated-but the mate is a beautiful one and maybe the loser wanted to see it. |
|
| Jan-12-11 | | sevenseaman: Boris knows how to snap all argument! |
|
| Jun-09-12 | | vinidivici: Dude, whats happen if 16....Nxg5 or Bxg5 (taking the bishop)? |
|
| Jun-09-12 | | vinidivici: no answer? |

 | | Honza Cervenka: <vinidivici: Dude, whats happen if 16....Nxg5 or Bxg5 (taking the bishop)?> In both cases 17.gxf7+ wins. |
