Jul-28-21 Abdusattorov vs V Durarbayli, 2021 
|
Isilimela: At move 21 black's 2 bishops seem well-placed and there doesn't seem there's much on for white. So it's remarkable how he conjures up an attack from nothing. Maybe 23 ... Bxa2 swallowed a 'poisoned pawn' not because the bishop could be trapped but because the g-file was opened up. |

May-01-19 AlphaZero vs Stockfish, 2018
|
Isilimela: A0 fond of creating pawn wedge with h4/h5/h6. Classic pawn breakthrough with 24. f5! and 25. e6! |

Apr-20-19 Carlsen vs S Nyysti, 2002 
|
Isilimela: Imaginative opening play by a very young Carlsen!Centre pawns roll forward and completely lock up the black queen side. Re the draw by repetition - looks like Carlsen would have accepted that but did he really need to ?! Stockfish suggests exchange of queens. |

|
Isilimela: A bit strange for Pillsbury to come up with a neat drawing tactic and then resign ?? |
