  Richard Taylor: Great game by Ortvin!
Jun-16-07  Shams: not to be rude but wasn't he just gifted a knight?

  Richard Taylor: No - Black gets 2 pawns and an attack - Sarpu's Ke7 defends though. Frankel played some wild chess and he probably couldnt resist the sac unless he prepared it. I didn't mean the game was a masterpiece but S.defended well.

  Jonathan Sarfati: Yes, that was typical of Frankel's attacks, which were not so easy to defend against. 9... ♕xf6 would have been easier for Black, because the weakening of his king's cover would be less important with ♕s off. 40 ... ♕g3+ was even better, not that it mattered much.
