33. Kg2.

+ Show Spoiler +

We need to deny the g3 square to Black. If we play Kf1, we get this line:

33. Kf1 Rf3! 34. Ne4 Rxa3... And we're in quite a bit of trouble now.

In other words, Kg2 is forced. We're not going to stop Rfb8 by the way. It's inevitable. We're going to need to pull the Bishop back to f1 to stop the pawn from queening and dropping a Bishop.
It is impossible to be a citizen if you don't make an effort to understand the most basic activities of your government. It is very difficult to thrive in an increasingly competitive world if you're a nation of doods.

arhkangel are you learning so far ?

what are your impressions ?
Chuck Norris owns the greatest Poker Face of all-time. It helped him win the 1983 WSOP holding just a Get out of Jail Free Monopoloy card, and a green #4 card from the game UNO, against an AAA KK flop and his rival folding AK after Chuck raised him ALL-IN

Shouldn't we check him first? Later it will benefit us to have his King against a wall.

Kf1 instead of using the bishop since we need the bishop to attack

The only move is 34. Bf1, that pawn must be stopped.

God lightman is playing flawlessly for the last 20 odd moves.

34. Bf1 obviously. No need for any analysis here... I think a quick update is in order.

me ?????

what about you guys playing flawlessly for the last 34 moves ???

seriously when the match started I thought it'd be over by move 20, 25 at most, or at least with a significant advantage. We're in move 34 in the middle of an interesting battle with the overall game in a point where anyone can win !

I mean my most sincere congratulations for the fantastic honest effort.

I've thrown you everything I got in my arsenal, yet you've been able to hold your own all through early and midgame, seriously and I'm not holding anything... and wait till the match ends so you can see my notes !

on the otherside this is a real test to hold your will and curious nature not to click on all those SPOILERS all over the place; I'm really wondering what you guys have been analyzing.

and I'm not laying down so......

let's keep it up !!

35. Ne4

I was fretting about 35. ... Rf4 we have the interesting 36. Kh3

Ne2 Rf3 then draw the game with Re7/Re6 checks? Or just play Ne4 and try to win somehow?

35. Ne4 Rf4 36. Kh3 Rf3+ 37. Kg4 Rxa3 38. Kxg5 Ra1 and white has to keep checking in order to stop black from taking the bishop and queening. 39. Rg6+ Kf7 loses, so 39. Re7+ Kh8 40. Kg6 draws.

Actually after 39. ... Kh8 white can play on with 40. Nd2 Rd1 41. Rd7. This seems good for white I think even though black has an advanced pawn.


I vote for 35. Ne4.

Neither side has played flawlessly.
+ Show Spoiler +

I think we could have gotten an advantage at move 26. with Rb2, and the game would have turned out a lot differently. I think black wouldn't have been able to get his kingside attack in, and we'd have a passed pawn to show for it all. Anyway, first mistake was move 8. Nc3. I think 8. Nxc6 would have been more accurate, as in the Maroczy bind white's d4 square is left weak. With f5, black tries to undermine d4. The best way to deal with it is to simply get rid of the knight. After 13. Qd2, black played a series of interesting moves. 13. ... Qc7 was interesting, but we responded poorly, as 14. Rfd1 was better than 14. Rad1. I also didn't really expect 17. ... Qe3. I'm probably to blame for pushing the move 18. c5 instead of Qxe3, which would have probably been better. Anyway, certainly not a perfect game by either side.


Interesting game nonetheless, I didn't know the maroczy bind would lead us to such a positional game.
