Jun-19-04  patzer2: Ivanchuk demonstrates a Queen is sometimes worth more than two Rooks, especially when accompanied by a couple of passed pawns.
Jul-25-13  EvanTheTerrible: 31.c5 is simple, yet elegant. I love moves like this.

  technical draw: Good try by the Algerian IM. However he was playing Ivanchuk when he was at his peak. He really had no chance.
