| Jan-13-07 | | notyetagm: Magnificent game by Radjabov, destroying Van Wely's Bayoney Attack. |
|
| Jan-13-07 | | euripides: 39.Bb3 allows the decisive exchange sacrifice. However, Black is threatening Rc1, and if 39.Rc2 Black might sacrifice the pawn with 39...e2 40.Rxe2 Rc1 and the back rank battery looks unstoppable. |
|
| Jan-13-07 | | luzhin: Extraordinary opening preparation by Radjabov.His 14th move is the first link in a manoevre which appears to achieve nothing apart from swapping around the positions of his King's Knight and King's Bishop. The Knight on g7 looks ridiculous, but of course it attacks White's pride and joy, the pawn on e6. It's fitting that the final move of the game is Nxe6, after which White's position disintegrates in a shower of sparks. |

|
| Jan-13-07 | | Hesam7: 14...Nh5 is Radjabov's novelty. interesting that Khalifman does not even mention it in "Opening for White according to Kramnik". |
|
| Jan-14-07 | | square dance: <16...f4 forced white to close the kingside with 17.g4.> rybka thought that the game went from a slight advantage for white to a slight advantage for black after 17.g4. the machine was calling for 17.g3 instead. |

He saw deeper into the position than Van Wely did. |
|
| Jan-14-07 | | notyetagm: <euripides: Radjabov may be the most dangerous player with the black pieces in the world. Topalov is the obvious alternative.> Yes, he can beat anybody playing Black with his King's Indian and Sveshnikov. |

| Jan-14-07 | | notyetagm: <DCP23: <Someone kibitzed that van Wely had been online during the ACP rapid watching Radjabov and saying "the King's Indian is dead." Perhaps its status should now be upgraded to undead since you just can't kill the thing.> Mig Greengard> Ahh, Van Wely, do you know the old King's Indian proverb that revenge is a dish best served cold? It is very cold, in the King's Indian. |

| Jan-14-07 | | alicefujimori: <the machine was calling for 17.g3 instead>The pawn is already on g3 by move 17, so he cannot just waste a move by not moving at all. Anyway, it is not so simple. In the KID, black always have a typical dangerous kingside attack rolling and white's only way to stop it is either to distract black with a queenside attack or block the kingside. So Van Wely chose the move that "looks" right for white in the KID but unfortuately it further weakened his dark squares on the kingside. So it was really a very good novelty by Radja. |
|
| Jan-15-07 | | Daugmatas: Could anyone show a clear win for black in case if White plays 31. Nxd6 aiming at Nf7+? For example, 31...Rxf1 32. Kxf1 Qc1+ 33. Kg2. Is there 33...Rxf3 a correct move? It seems that van Wely missed his chance here. |
|
| Jan-15-07 | | Cyphelium: <Daugmatas> Maybe 31. ♘xd6 ♖xf1+ 32. ♔xf1 ♕c1+ 33. ♔g2 ♖xf3 would do the trick, for instance 34. ♔xf3? ♕f1+ with mate or something like 34. ♘f7+ ♔g8 35. ♘h6+ ♗xh6 36. e7+ ♔h8 37. ♕b5 ♕xb2+ 38. ♕xb2 ♖f2+ 39. ♖xf2 exf2  . |

| Jan-16-07 | | Shajmaty: <Hesam7: 14...Nh5 is Radjabov's novelty.>
<alicefujimori: Like I had suspected when going through this game, 14...Nh5 was a novelty.>
14...fxe4 was played just over a year ago by Van Wely versus Radjabov (!). |
|
| Jan-30-07 | | Whack8888: Is 10. Re1 necessary? From what I can see the Rook doesnt do much on e1 except move back to f1 on move 23. To me, 10. Re1 looks a little slow--I know a lot of times in the King's Indian the move Re8 for Black doesnt work because it is too slow, maybe the same is true for White? |
|
| Jan-30-07 | | Whack8888: Is there a winning line after 38. Nb1? To me it doesnt seem like h5 is a big threat--White's pawn structure will get messed up a bit, but surely that is better than straight up losing. With the attack on the Rook, Black may lose enough Tempo that White can hold--though he is still down the pawn on the Queen side. Speaking of the Queen side pawns, whats wrong with the simple 19. a3--it seems very strange that White would open up the c file when he has two pieces en prise there--after 19. a3 dxc5 20. Qxd8 Rxd8 21. bxc5 White is probably worse, because of his pawn structure, but it doesnt seem like he should lose, at least immediately. |
|
| Jan-31-07 | | Cyphelium: <Whack8888> After 19. a3 dxc5 20. ♕xd8 ♖axd8 21. bxc5, black has 21.- ♘d4 with a triple threat against e6, f3 and c2. |

| Jun-12-07 | | prinsallan: Radjabov is totally amazing with passed pawns.
He's a Miracle worker! Good Game!! |
|
| Mar-12-08 | | mistreaver: Another great game in Bayonet attack from Radja think ppl should stop playing that line against him |
|
| Apr-09-08 | | juandadamo: Why 14 ... kh8 ? What's the plan behind this move?
Trying to understand a little of KID... Thanks! |
|
| Jun-26-08 | | david.c.denis: whack: the move Re1 is to provide the f1 square for the bishop. this takes the punch out of Nf4, as now the bishop can retreat. if that square isn't available the knight can grab the bishop and make white weak on the white squares. with re1 and Bf1 then white can kick the black knight out of f4 with g3 at will |
|
| Jul-22-17 | | Dave12: A beautiful ending position! |
|
| Jul-27-18 | | Saniyat24: 35...Qd4 by Radjabov was a very good move...! |
|
| Jul-27-18 | | Saniyat24: Looking for ways, but no way out...! |
