Annotation from Playchess.com Gurevich,M (2641) - Junior 7 [D03] Corinth, 17.05.2002 [Frederic] 1.d4 Nf6 2.c3 e6 3.Bg5 d5 4.Nd2 c5 5.e3 Be7 Titu: Up till now Gurevich has not used any anticomputer play, maybe he will today 6.Ngf3 Nbd7 7.Bd3 b6 8.0-0 Bb7 9.Qe2 0-0 Jeremia: die Partie wird wohl im Zentrum und am Damenflügel entschieden! 10.Rfd1 c4 Kenny: c4 closes the position; just what Gurevich needs today. Ken: c4 was not a good program move.Junior should have exchanged pawns to open the c file. 11.Bc2 Roy: Now White must attack on the kingside.Time: 51:58 11...h6 12.Bh4 g5 13.Bg3 Jeremia: Weiss sollte versuchen, nach e4 den Bauern zu tauschen und Raum für die weissen Läufer und Springer gewinnen. 13...Nh5 Jeremia: Schwarz spielt auf Abtausch! 14.e4 b5 Jeremia: Weiss will Schwarz erst mal "kommen lassen"! Time: 48:51 15.e5 Nogal: Junior horizon "sees" he has chances on queenside but he can't see that checkmate is on kingside... Kentucky Ken: GM Gurevich had "learning on" in first two games to play like this now. 15...a5 16.Nf1 Frederic: Today I'm putting my money on Gurevich. Kenny Wei: Gurevich has a clear plan - h3, Bh2 (if no Nxg3), g4, Ng3-h5. Maybe even throw in Bb1 and Qc2 if Junior allows it 16...Qe8 Jeremia: "Vorsicht ist die Mutter der Porzellankiste" denkt sich Schwarz wohl! 17.Ne3 Roy: White may already be winning here. 17...b4 18.Ng4 Banikas: I think this is a mistake. Better is Nd2 immediately. 18...Nxg3 19.hxg3 Kg7 Time: 42:49 20.Nd2 Frederic: White wants to play f4 20...h5 21.Ne3 Rh8 Kenny: Now Black is okay. Banikas: Now Black is okay. Ken: Yes, different game now, with black queen on g8 and black king at f8 22.f4 h4 Nogal: Gurevich is thinking deeply about f5 because it's a no takeback decision for the rest of the game... Time: 30:40 23.f5 hxg3 24.Qg4 Qg8 25.Qxg3 [25.Qxg3 Bd8 26.fxe6 fxe6 27.Rf1 with a winning attack (Roy)] 25...Bd8 26.Rf1 Jeremia: Kf8 is not possible now. There is now no escape for the black king. Henning: For DJunior opening the f-file with fxe6 seems to be the best attacking option for white, nailing the black king. Banikas: I cannot see any defense to the threath Nf3. Time: 33:28 26...Ra6 Time: 33:22 27.f6+ Roy: ...Kf8 forced, then Nf3 is the only decent move. White's advantage is much less than before. 27...Kf8 28.Nf3 Rb6 29.Qg4 Rh6 30.Kf2 Brijz: Gurevich wants to reduce the protection of black's K; he'll go for Rh1 and exchange rooks 30...Ke8 31.Qxg5 Qxg5 32.Nxg5 Jeremia: f7 is very, very weak. Time: 29:13 32...Rh5 33.Nf3 Nf8 34.Rh1 Rxh1 35.Rxh1 bxc3 36.bxc3 Rb2 37.Rh8 Mike: Perfectly executed plan by Gurevich 37...Bc6 Time: 21:09 38.Ke1 Rxa2 39.Ng5 Be7 40.fxe7 Kxe7 Time: 16:09 41.Kd2 a4 42.Rh1 a3 43.Rf1 Be8 44.Rb1 f6 45.Rb7+ Nd7 46.Nf3 fxe5 47.Nxe5 Kd8 Time: 15:05 48.Nc6+ [48.Nxd7 Bxd7 49.g4 wins after a long march by the pawn.] 48...Kc8 49.Ra7 Nf6 50.Nb4 Ne4+ 51.Ke1 Ra1+ 52.Nd1 [52.Bd1 Nxc3 53.Nbc2 Rb1 54.Rxa3 is a clear win] 52...Bh5 Everybody: Ugh. Oops, Oh boy! Time: 13:03 53.Ba4 Kb8 Time: 9:30 - 4:47 54.Nc6+ Kenny: Now Gurevich grovelling for a draw by repetition. 54...Kc8 [54...Kc8 55.Ne5] 55.Nb4 Kb8 56.Nc6+ Kc8 57.Nb4 Mike: If programs could sweat, there would be a puddle in that room. Draw by three-fold repetition. ½-½ Without Annotation: Gurevich,M (2641) - Junior 7 [D03] Corinth, 17.05.2002 1.d4 Nf6 2.c3 e6 3.Bg5 d5 4.Nd2 c5 5.e3 Be7 6.Ngf3 Nbd7 7.Bd3 b6 8.0-0 Bb7 9.Qe2 0-0 10.Rfd1 c4 11.Bc2 h6 12.Bh4 g5 13.Bg3 Nh5 14.e4 b5 15.e5 a5 16.Nf1 Qe8 17.Ne3 b4 18.Ng4 Nxg3 19.hxg3 Kg7 20.Nd2 h5 21.Ne3 Rh8 22.f4 h4 23.f5 hxg3 24.Qg4 Qg8 25.Qxg3 Bd8 26.Rf1 Ra6 27.f6+ Kf8 28.Nf3 Rb6 29.Qg4 Rh6 30.Kf2 Ke8 31.Qxg5 Qxg5 32.Nxg5 Rh5 33.Nf3 Nf8 34.Rh1 Rxh1 35.Rxh1 bxc3 36.bxc3 Rb2 37.Rh8 Bc6 38.Ke1 Rxa2 39.Ng5 Be7 40.fxe7 Kxe7 41.Kd2 a4 42.Rh1 a3 43.Rf1 Be8 44.Rb1 f6 45.Rb7+ Nd7 46.Nf3 fxe5 47.Nxe5 Kd8 48.Nc6+ Kc8 49.Ra7 Nf6 50.Nb4 Ne4+ 51.Ke1 Ra1+ 52.Nd1 Bh5 53.Ba4 Kb8 54.Nc6+ Kc8 55.Nb4 Kb8 56.Nc6+ Kc8 57.Nb4 ½-½
