morphynoman: A very interesting game in all his faces. Black's defense in the opening is a very agressive one. The end of the game, a single rock against rock and two united pawns is pretty instructive. I wonder if Van Wely had well played it. |

morphynoman: Black looks in pain from the beginning. However 45. Rxa4 is a nice end to this calvary. |

morphynoman: What a fantastic game! Obsviously 46. Kc5?? is a blunder. I suppose 46. Kc3 must be a draw (perpetual check).
Maybe white wins with 44. Qe5+ Kg8 45. c8Q! and the king escapes the perpetual by c4 and d5 |
