Jun-01-08  percyblakeney: Drozdovskij was one point ahead of Tregubov before this last round game, but dropped a piece with 20. ... h6 and Tregubov won the tournament on tiebreak.
Jan-07-14  PJs Studio: I checked 16...Rxc4 literally twelve different ways and - it actually looses! Amazing!

Only one example goes 17.O-O Rh4 18. Nb3 Qe5 19. g3 Rc4 20. Nd2 Rc7 21. Qg4+ Kh8 22. Nf3 Qd5 23. Rfd1!

In all the variations either the black Rook on the c file or the Bishop on c3 is offsides. 16. Bc4!! Is REALLY impressive. I could never see all of the lines. 17...Rc8 losses too(!)

Anyone please check it on computer but - I can't find anything for black.

Jan-07-14  PJs Studio: It's dicey but i think its best for me to admit I cannot find best play. Too difficult for me.
