| Aug-21-13 | | mrbasso: <Mamedyarov never sat at the table properly and was way ahead in time. Perhaps he was trying to press his opponent psychologically but it didn't work.> This is typical for Shak. He tries to intimidate his opponents but it usually only works against lower rated opponents. |
|
| Aug-21-13 | | vasja: Methinks that there was a more direct way:
16 e5 de 17 fe QXe5 18 Bb6
and white wins exchange. |

Cheers K |

| Aug-21-13 | | marcwordsmith: Thank you <Troller> and <Shams>. Yes, moving the pieces would probably be a good idea. Gotta get my board set up first--so much effort! ;-) Why do that when I have you guys? JUST KIDDING! |
|
| Aug-21-13 | | marcwordsmith: oh jeez, I did not even SEE 31. Qxd5+. DUH! Perhaps moving the pieces wouldn't have even helped me. |
|
| Aug-21-13 | | Ed Frank: Tal resurrected. Kamsky's attack here is pure beauty. |
|
| Aug-22-13 | | Tim Delaney: 30. Qd5 is less spectacular, but more direct. 30. ... Bxh4; 31. Qe4 and now black must play Rg8, losing both the Rook and the bishop. If he tries 30. ... Qb7 then 31. Rxh5 and he gets mated quickly. |

 | | sbevan: <luzhin: This is a devastating example of the rule that when Black plays ...d5 in the open Sicilian it either equalises completely or is a blunder. In this case, Black should have played 16...e5 with the idea of blunting White's key attacking piece, the Bd3.> Thank you.
Again. |

Kiewra observes that Kamsky's last 17 moves were all threats! |
|
| Nov-20-15 | | nilanjanasm: This is a great game |
|
| May-05-16 | | Rabbi T: 30...Rh5 is a brilliant move. |
|
| Oct-07-22 | | Brenin: I couldn't see a good forcing move, but OTB I guess I'd consolidate the P on f7 with 24 e6 and then try to get my Q to give check on the a1 - h8 diagonal. Looking at the game continuation, it seems that this was the right plan, but I had no idea whether it was going to work. |
|
| Oct-07-22 | | mel gibson: 24. e6 was obvious to be examined but
I couldn't see how it would win.
I gave up.

 | | al wazir: My plan was 25. Bxg6 hxg6 26. Rg4 Rh8 27. Rxg6+ Kxg6 28. Qg4+ Kh7 29. Rf5. But black doesn't have to play 26...Rh8. After 26...Qxe5, the attack is dead. White is two pieces down with nothing but a couple of ♙s to show for it. |
|
| Oct-07-22 | | nalinw: Unlike <Brenin> I completely missed the final nail in the coffin - threats along the Black long diagonal .... even after seeing the follow-up is complex. Black has to give the piece back (at least) to survive. |
|
| Oct-07-22 | | jrredfield: It was a pretty good week for me, but didn't get this one. I did look at 24 e6 briefly, but went with Bxg6??. Black grabs the bishop and there's no good plan for White after that. Should have looked a bit deeper. |
|
| Oct-07-22 | | sfm: OK, this is up there where it's hard to fly with ordinary wings. Wonderful attack. |

| Oct-07-22 | | King.Arthur.Brazil: The King (me!) was in doubt about the order of two moves:24/25... e6 or ♕e3. Then, following game line, 26. ♕e1 seems natural, since the ♕ protects the ♙ while it threats ♕c3+ and ♖h4+ or ♕h4, and according to black ♕ moves, ♕e5+. Also 26. ♖h4 seems simple, because it threats also 27. ♕e3, for 28. ♕d4+ or 28. ♕h6+, with deadly attack. Now, 28...♗xh4 29. ♕d4+ ♔h6 30. ♕xh4+ ♔g7 31. ♕f6+ ♔h6 32. ♖f4 ♕xf4 33. ♕xf4+ ♔g7 34. ♕e5+ ♔h6 35. ♕xd5 with unstoppable e7-e8. So, the decisive move is a sequence: 29. ♕d5+ to place the ♕ for the theater, which I truly didn't see... and 30. ♖xh5+ for check-mate combination, The King played 29. ♖xh5 directly, threating 30. ♕h6+, with the line: 29... gxh5 30. ♕d4+ ♔h6 31. ♖f6+ ♗xf6 32. ♕xf6# or 29... ♔g5 31. ♖f6+ ♔g5 32. ♖g6#, even 29...♔g7 32. ♖g6+ ♔h7 33. ♕g7#. Will I be a GM one day? lgs (Nooooo...) |

 | | agb2002: White has a bishop for three pawns.
Black threatens Qxe5 and block the f-pawn.
White can open the a1-h8 diagonal and block the action of Black's light square bishop on f7 with 24.e6: A) 24... Rf8 25.Qe3 looks good for White. For example, 25... Qc5 26.Qe5+ Kh6 (threatens Bxg2+) 27.Be4 Rbd8 27... Bxe4 28.Rh4+ Bxe7 29.Qxc5 wins decisive material) 28.R4f3. B) 24... Bf8 25. Rh4 h5 26.Rxh5 gxh5 27.Qxh5 wins (27... Bd6 28.Qg5+ Kf8 [28... Kh8 29.Qh6#] 29.e7+ B(Q)xe7 30.Qh6#). C) 24... Bxe6 25.Qxe6 recovers material while keeping the attack. |
|
| Oct-07-22 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: It was obvious that the game move e6 forced the game move ... Rf8 to prevent the clearance of f7. But I didn't see how to proceed from there, due in large part to the difficulty of getting a rook to the h-file against the defense from Black's bishops. So after briefly checking the alternate move order of f8(Q)+ with the intention of an e6 followup, which doesn't seem to work at all, I gave up. |
|
Oct-07-22
| | al wazir: 19. f6 (instead of 19. fxe6) Ne4 (19...g6 20. Qh6 Bf8 21. Qxd2) 20. fxe7 Qxe7 21. Nxe4 dxe4 22. Bxe4 Bxe4 23. Rxe4 seems to leave black in a cramped position and give white good attacking opportunities. |
