In the round 2.2 of the World Championship in India (1st Dec.), Anand faced IGM Bologan with white, and reached the following position : [D] 2b1rb1k/2r2ppp/n2p4/3P2PN/3NPQ2/2p3RP/1q3PK1/1B1R4 w - - Bologan has just played 36. ... c3 with (what looks like) a very good position for black (the c3 pawn is a monster). But Anand played here an impressive move that forced his opponent to resign 5 moves later: Nf6!! The idea is that after 37. Nf6 gxf6 38. gxf6 Re5 39. Nf5! is winning for white and after: 37. Nf6 gxf6 38. gxf6 h6 39. Kh1 (with the idea Rdg1) is very strong for white. Is any program able to find Nf6 at tournament time control ? Regards.
