Jul-01-07 Chandler vs I Rogers, 1984
| |
| tangobob: Wow, ingenious. The bishop-rook trade gets rid of the pesky bishop, but it also gives white a chance to mobilize the h1 rook (after the black bishop on b4 has to move to e7 to defend). It's one of those bold, uncovering moves that's easy to dismiss without real consideration ... |

| |
| tangobob: Wow, <MAJoe>, thanks for that analysis, I knew there was a lot more to analyze with the 35...Rc7 defense. Makes me feel a little better for not seeing that by 35.Rd1 white was in an obviously winning position.... |
