Jan-29-05 | | Jack Rabbit: Judit Polgar defeated Ivan Sokolov. |
|

 | | Sneaky: Radu, you're right, I saw that line but I had a vision of winning the rook on f1 with Rc8+ and Qd3+ ... I think that doesn't really work as d2 is hanging. |
|
Jan-29-05
 | | Joshka: Sokolov got mated by Polgar |
|
Jan-29-05 | | ChessMan94: Joshka
Sokolov resigned, he did not get mated. |
|
Jan-29-05 | | Castle In The Sky: Chessmaster 10th suggests Rd1 is strongest for white with essentially a drawn game. ...Qxd2 would have been stronger on the previous move |
|
Jan-29-05 | | acirce: What a position, almost every piece is standing where it has or almost has to stand. Hence Fritz' various repetition lines with silly king moves and such. |
|
Jan-29-05 | | WillC21: What do you mean sokolov got mated? As in he resigned in a position that was like mate in 4? Or did he just blunder and Polgar instantly checkmated him. I hope not, poor soko is doing so poorly here. |
|
Jan-29-05 | | Chris00nj: Black is eyeing Qc2 |
|
Jan-29-05 | | sandyobrien: my crafty is calling this a draw |
|
Jan-29-05 | | ChessMan94: What about 41. Nc4? |
|
Jan-29-05
 | | Joshka: <willc21> Akobian on chessfm..stated Polgar delivered mate to sokolov |
|
Jan-29-05 | | TheSlid: <As in he resigned in a position that was like mate in 4?> Pretty much! |
|
Jan-29-05 | | ChessMan94: The final position in the official site does not show mate for Polgar. |
|
Jan-29-05 | | SCUBA diver: How about black 40. ...Q-c2 |
|
Jan-29-05 | | Chris00nj: ChessMan94: What about 41. Nc4?
41...Qc2 still works. Threatening Bxc4 and Rxf2 |
|
Jan-29-05
 | | cu8sfan: I've been away for a while. Seems like I'm missing a great game. |
|
Jan-29-05 | | sandyobrien: no Nc4
Bxc4, Qxc4, Ne4, Bh4, Ng3+, Bxg3, Qxg3 and black wins |
|
Jan-29-05 | | TheSlid: <cu8sfan> Most exciting event since the last games from Leko-Kramnik. Truly ironic that you missed, given the time devoted to the tournament! |
|
Jan-29-05 | | arifattar: I think black should sac the Knight |
|
Jan-29-05
 | | Joshka: cu8sfan leko sacked his knight for a couple of pawns and threats..but he took a lotta time to do it...and just made time control |
|
Jan-29-05 | | Gypsy: Ok, lets call Polgar-Sokolov essentially a mate. She found it and Sokolov could not stopped it (other than by resigning or leting the clock running out). |
|
Jan-29-05 | | Castle In The Sky: ...Qc2is not listed in Chessmasters top 7 moves, it suggest ...Bb7 with a -.11 advantage |
|
Jan-29-05 | | cheski: Wasn't 40...Kh7 a better move? |
|
Jan-29-05 | | sandyobrien: Qg6, Kh2, Qg5, Kh1 and crafty 18 says draw :( |
|
Jan-29-05 | | SCUBA diver: Q-c2 still looks good |
