Oct-20-07 Petrosian vs Quinteros, 1976 
|
armis: Very well handled by Petrosian.
I especially like the part where he instead of grabbing the a pawn builds his position, deprives black from counterplay and squeezes him. It's a lot easier to play with a positional advantage than material one! |

|
armis: <klon3: 15.f3 is better also 18 Qd2> f3 is indeed better, covering g4. But I think that after 18.♕d2 black can just play 18. ...♕g6 with the idea 19. ...f5 and use his bishop pair. Nice game by Fischer. There is a game Gligoric-Kavalek where white demonstrates the ... |

Oct-17-07 Fedorowicz vs Vaganian, 1990 
|
armis: An effortless win by Fedorowicz! This game clearly demonstrates that white's space advantage in the center can make the kingside attack really dangerous. Black's natural moves didn't work out so well |

Oct-16-07 Beliavsky vs Kasparov, 1979 
|
armis: Black didn't play vigorously enough to obtain counterplay, got cramped and then his weaknesess started to tell. This is a fine example of exploiting the weaknesess of the black queenside loosened by the move a6 and blockaded by a5. |

Oct-16-07 Gligoric vs Miles, 1974 
|
armis: This game clearly demonstrates what happens if black doesn't play vigorously and precisely in the modern benoni. Black got cramped and then his weaknesess started to tell. 22.e5! was a beautiful pawn sacrifice by Gligoric |

|
armis: 15. ...c4!
<Black's idea is ♘d7-c5, which is his main method of counterplay. It's true, the pawn on c4 may turn into a target for an enemy attack but black is going to prove viability of his position by tactical means.> I have some annotations to this game. An ... |

Oct-16-07 Gligoric vs Matulovic, 1967 
|
armis: Greetings
I have some annotations to this game. It says that in this particular situation ( after black's a6 ) white can afford to omit the stereotyped a2-a4, saving time to concentrate his forces in the center and on the kingside. This one is a bit tricky for me to understand, ... |
