May-24-18 Petropolis Interzonal (1973) 
|
gmgomes: Mecking became a kind of National Hero in Brazil after this triumph. Petropolis is known as a Imperial City, just one hour away (by car) from Rio de Janeiro. His win against former world champion Smyslov is a very interesting game. |

Mar-28-16 Karjakin vs Caruana, 2016 
|
gmgomes: 19... Ke7 is the expected move. My engine also evaluated the aggressive alternative a5. |

Sep-14-15 Mecking vs Tal, 1975 
|
gmgomes: <um doutor, fã do Tal, disse que o mago ja tava muito velho... doente... etc...> Tal was in very good shape in 1975 - In April 1975, Chessmetrics rates him as the 3rd in the world - only behind Karpov and Korchnoi. |

Aug-24-15 Topalov vs Nakamura, 2015 
|
gmgomes: After 50. Bg7, black cannot move the N or the K. Rook is protecting c pawn and the open line - so, I think Re7 threatening the Bishop will be the move. |

Aug-30-13 World Cup (2013) 
|
gmgomes: The game itself really reminds me Kramink beating Leko in 2004. In Anand x Topalov I remember a game where Topalov was able to get a perpetual in a Q x 2 rooks endgame. Probably this is Andreikin best hope. |

Mar-01-13 Caruana vs Gelfand, 2013
