Sep-13-16 | | cro777: In the penultimate round Sadorra played a nice attacking game against IM Greet from Scotland. When your opponent is under attack and has to defend, often having to find the only move to stay in the game, it is not easy for him to find key defensive ideas. GM Julio Catalino Sadorra (2560) – IM Andrew N. Greet (2455) In possibly today's main line of the entire Exchange Slav ( Symmetrical line 7.Qb3 Na5 8. Qa4+ Bd7 9. Qc2) Sadorra applied Aronian’s new idea 14.Bf4 (instead of 14.Bg3) from the Tromso Olympiad 2014. Aronian vs Navara, 2014 1. d4 d5 2. c4 c6 3. cxd5 cxd5 4. Bf4 Nc6 5. e3 Nf6 6. Nc3 Bf5 7. Qb3 Na5 8. Qa4+ Bd7 9. Qc2 e6 10. Bd3 Be7 11. Nf3 Nc6 12. a3 Nh5 13. Be5 f6
 click for larger view14. Bf4 <The point of this Aronian’s idea is that after the exchange on f4, the e6–pawn will be a bit vulnerable, and the pawns on d4 and f4 do a good job of containing the centre.> 14…g6? <Greet answered with a new move in this position (14…Nxf4, 14…f5 and 14…Rc8 was tried before). This move weakens Black's kingside and doesn't look sound. Sadorra replied with a direct attack.> 15. Bxg6+ hxg6 16. Qxg6+ Kf8 17. Bh6+ Rxh6 18. Qxh6+ Ng7 19. h4 Kg8 20. Rh3

Sep-13-16 | | cro777: Sadorra about his game against Magnus Carlsen.
In the sixth round of the Baku Olympiad 2016 The Philipines met Norway. On the top board
Julio Sadorra drew Magnus Carlsen with the black pieces. Sadorra's press conference after the game:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gvw...
The game started in style: Leyla Aliyeva, the first daughter of the President of Azerbaijan and editor-in-chief of style magazine "Baku: Art. Culture. Wild", made the first move for Magnus. http://mattogpatt.no/wp-content/upl... As Sadorra pointed out, at the Olympiad, hiding his preparations for the World Championship match in November, Magnus Carsen avoided the mainstream openings. Against Sadorra he opted for a rare line (6.c5) of the French Defense Exchange Variation: 1. e4 e6 2. Nf3 d5 3. exd5 exd5 4. d4 Bd6 5. c4 Nf6
 click for larger viewThe main move here is 6.Nc3. According to John Watson, one of the leading experts in the French Defense, 6.c5 selected by Magnus is playable. He suggests 6…Be7 7.Bd3 b6! Magnus opted for 7.Nc3. He was slightly better out of the opening. In the middlegame Sadorra made a mistake by playing 20…Bg6? (the correct move was 20…Be4 followed by 20…Ne5)
 click for larger view Magnus returned the favor by playing a straightforward 21.Nxc2? He missed a simple tactics 21.Bxc7 (after 21...Qc8 22.Bd6 he would have had real chances to win the game). Instead, he ended up a pawn down and was lucky to escape with a draw. A video-analysis of the game:
