Oct-16-19 J Cori vs N Huschenbeth, 2012
| |
| Rama: I liked 19. ...Nxc3, 20. bxc3 Rxc3. White cannot take the black Queen or he winds up down a rook after the checks. So the pawn is won with minimal fuss. |

Apr-22-19 Carlsen vs Anand, 2019
| |
| Rama: Yes, as to the doubled pawns. The possibility of b4 is always there. But here it looks like Carlsen plans to give Vishy the 'treatment' used in the last two rounds: Keep playing until something gives, 6 hours, 7 hours, that's fine with him. |
