Nov-10-10 | | Marmot PFL: Seems that karjakin found a way to hold. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Marmot PFL: After hg f5-f6 white gets passed h pawn, but can't black stop this with f6? |
|
Nov-10-10 | | shakespeare: @Marmot PFL: Seems that karjakin found a way to hold. Better: it seems that Aronian find a way to let him draw |

Nov-10-10 | | whiteshark: ♖+♙4:♖+♙3 endgames with extra d-pawn are rare: Game Collection: 08_extra passed d-pawn in R+4:3|| compared to extra a-/b- or c-pawn ... |

Motion passed.
By rook or by crook! ;) |

 | | tarek1: Kh5 wins, no ? |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Marmot PFL: Another 4-3 rook ending in Eljanov-Gelfand but there black has more weaknesses. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Marmot PFL: Kh5 Kf7 then Rh8+ |
|
Nov-10-10
 | | sbevan: <tarek1: Kh5 wins, no ?>
looks like it |
|
Nov-10-10
 | | tarek1: For example 47. Kh5 Rh8+ 48.Kg6 Rxh4 49.d8Q+ Kxd8 50.Kxg7 looks decisive. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | whiteshark: <tp + mal> Overpraised, I'm afraid. It's nice, though. :D |
|
Nov-10-10 | | whiteshark: Unfortunately White can not infiltrate with his king via h-file due to ...Rh8+ (with a black king on f7) |
|
Nov-10-10 | | malthrope: <whiteshark: <tp + mal> Overpraised, I'm afraid. It's nice, though. :D> Good! Cause now it's time to go to the local bar and seal the deal with a beer and a rooksie! ;) - Mal |

Nov-10-10
 | | tarek1: I think the <49.d8Q+!!> pawn sac is the resource that makes this winning for White. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Kinghunt: But 47. Kh5 Kf7 and I don't think white can make progress. |
|
Nov-10-10
 | | tarek1: <Kinghunt> You're right. I missed that. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Rawprawn: <Tarek1> That's how I see it. When the WK comes to g6 it's all over. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Rawprawn: h5 has to win doesn't it? |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Kinghunt: <Rawprawn: h5 has to win doesn't it?> Again, Kf7 and I don't think white can make progress. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | shakespeare: @ Rawprawn: h5 has to win doesn't it?
definitely not - how to make progress after it - if at all Kh5 and hope that black takes with the rook :-) |
|
Nov-10-10 | | SCUBA diver: There is nothing after 47. K-h5, K-f7, 48. R-b7, R-h8+ etc |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Rawprawn: <Again, Kf7 and I don't think white can make progress.>
Yes was just seeing that as answer to Kh5. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | MyCatPlaysChess: I don't think the white king will ever reach g6... there is no triangulation to screw up black's coordination. |
|
Nov-10-10 | | Ulhumbrus: <tarek1: I think the <49.d8Q+!!> pawn sac is the resource that makes this winning for White.> 47 Kh5 Rh8+ 48 Kg6 Rxh4 49 d7-d8/Q+ KxQ 50 Kxh7 looks promising for White, but on 50...Ke8 51 Kxf6 is this a technical win or a technical draw? |
