Jun-26-14 I Figler vs S Ravichandran, 2010
|
kubiyak: The final position looks defensible for Black unless I'm missing something. What's wrong with 63... Nxa6? Perhaps Black lost on time. In any case, the concept behind the sacrifice deserves praise |

Jun-25-14 K Lambrechts vs S van Eijk, 2011
|
kubiyak: Capablanca would be proud. The imbalance of 3 pieces vs 2 rooks is rare. I think Black's play is instructive. 38...Bf8 is a key point keeping pressure on the potential majority White has on the queen side. |

kubiyak: 16...Bxf6 seems more natural for Black atleast to my intuition |

|
kubiyak: A nice series of moves at the end to finish. Any chance Kramnik blundered the combination leading to the endgame? |

kubiyak: Great that chess players are open to questioning the wisdom of the ancients. Unfortunately in too many other fields the wisdom of the ancients is respected and adhered to too severely. |
