Yes Petr cannot be satisfied with this game... He oftens plays 4.Qc2 against
the Nimzo-Indian, but here he was mostly occupied by defending e3, f3.
Tiger put up great pressure and had good control. Also there was play for
black on the Q-side with 3 vs 2. A nice and solid game from Tiger where
Kiriakov crumbled from the pressure and (probably) time shortage (44.Kh2??).
Looks like Petr has some homework to do in this variation... With this
time limit (90 30) or similar (like the Smirin games), the top programs
are capable of performing at 2600+. IM very HO of course...;-)
Great game! Thanks.
