Apr-28-13 | | Ulhumbrus: Perhaps Topalov will try 35 a4 |
|
Apr-28-13 | | DcGentle: <Ulhumbrus>: Yes, and there is this psychological effect, that the winning part may think that they have achieved something and the attention is being neglected... and gone with the wind is victory. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | DcGentle: I think a perpetual may end this game. A draw is likely. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Marmot PFL: Would like to see both sides promote, but I'm expecting some sort of perpetual check. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | watwinc: I was looking at 34 ... Ne4 - I really must try and grow out of these one-move tactical shots. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | DcGentle: <<avidfan>: Why 32...Qxh5 when that pawn ws already Black's ?> Black wanted to create a passed pawn. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | avidfan: Thanks <sebachess>. The Black queen on h1 (pinned) disabled the bishop! Good move by Black! |
|
Apr-28-13 | | sebachess: Ne4 and Nd2 threat it's coming |
|
Apr-28-13 | | watwinc: <sebachess> Ne4 and White just plays the queen to the d file, covering Nd2+ |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Ulhumbrus: 36 Qf4 threatens both Qg5+ and Qh6+ as well preparing a4 and Ka2 |
|
Apr-28-13 | | avidfan: Can the Black king hide from perpetual check? |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Marmot PFL: Moro threw away a big advantage. How can black not play Rf6? click for larger view |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Ulhumbrus: If Topalov thinks that he has the option of perpetual check he may want to delay taking it as long as he can play for a win |
|
Apr-28-13 | | sebachess: there are not perpetual check.. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Ulhumbrus: One way for Black to lose is 38...h2 39 a6 Qg2 40 a7 h1/Q 41 a8/Q Nd2+ 42 Ka2 Qxc1 43 Qe5+ Kh7 44 Qh8+ Kg6 45 Qg7 mate |
|
Apr-28-13 | | DcGentle: According to Houdini 38... Qe1 was a mistake, because White can play 39. c4 creating a hole for his king. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Marmot PFL: Should switch to Naka-Moro game, excitement amidst the blunders |
|
Apr-28-13 | | sebachess: and now there are perpetual.. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | russsshurig: Tops' defensive genius, again. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Ulhumbrus: White seems to have a draw by perpetual check. On 45...Kf8 46 Qg5-d8+ forces the black king back on to the g file |
|
Apr-28-13 | | Ulhumbrus: <russsshurig: Tops' defensive genius, again.> 35 Qc7!! was a brilliant resource |
|
Apr-28-13 | | ikipemiko: Topalov shows great endgame and defensive play lately. Kudos to him - these were somehow "weak" points in his play. Can he return back to top 3 and be again challenger for the crown?
Always a pleasure to watch. |
|
Apr-28-13 | | avidfan: I would have loved to see the game play after 32...b7-b5 . |
|
Apr-28-13 | | goggi: Nakamura-Morozevich 1-0 |
|
Apr-28-13
 | | AylerKupp: <avidfan> I thought so too. But I had Critter 1.6a analyze the position after 22...b5 and at d=26 it evaluated it at [0.00] after either 33.b3, 33.Qc7, or 33.Qb6. So perhaps a draw was the appropriate result. |
