Mar-29-12  hellopolgar: A lot of waiting moves from white. He was just waiting for black to crack under pressure.
Mar-29-12  nummerzwei: What makes you denigrate strong positional play in such a manner?
Mar-29-12  King Death: < nummerzwei: What makes you denigrate strong positional play in such a manner?>

Maybe a lack of understanding, it's been seen before.

Mar-29-12  Gilmoy: White bravely <11.Bc1 12.Bd2> pays to reposition his B, <14.Nh4 g6 15.Nf4> feints to shake up Black's K-side pawns, and <21.bxc4 bxc4> lets Black have a connected passed pawn. White gets dynamic counterplay: <22.Bc3 23.Rb2> reveals <18..Rc8> to be a flawed plan.

Black tries to sac the exchange to maintain initiative, but White simply returns it to win said passed pawn.

<19..c4> looks like a deep plan with not-deep-enough prep. Truly amazing if White found the refutation OTB.

  Penguincw: Black won't be able to queen the pawn. If black ever checks, I believe the technique is to get closer to the rook, so that checks will run out, but stay off the d-file.
