This game copies the moves all the way up to 21.b3 from Ponomariov-Adams in the SuperGM tournament in 2002 which White also won. Adams played 21...Nxe4 and Crafty played 21...cxb3. So did Black really go wrong in the opening, or were both of these games lost later? Analysis of the position after 21.b3 shows Black with a small advantage (CM9_SKR shows 21...Rac8 with a score of -0.15 for Black): [D]r4rk1/5p2/p2b1n1p/1p3bp1/2pPR3/1PP2PPq/P1BN1Q1P/R1B3K1 b - - 0 21 [Event "SuperGM"] [Site "Linares ESP"] [Date "2002.03.04"] [Round "9"] [White "Ponomariov, R"] [Black "Adams, Mi"] [TimeControl "-"] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "C89"] [WhiteELO "2727"] [BlackELO "2742"] 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.O-O Be7 6.Re1 b5 7.Bb3 O-O 8.c3 d5 9.exd5 Nxd5 10.Nxe5 Nxe5 11.Rxe5 c6 12.d4 Bd6 13.Re1 Qh4 14.g3 Qh3 15.Re4 g5 16.Qe2 Nf6 17.Nd2 Bf5 18.f3 c5 19.Qf2 c4 20.Bc2 h6 21.b3 cxb3 22.axb3 Rfc8 23.Bb2 Bb4 24.Re5 Bxc2 25.cxb4 Bg6 26.Rc5 Re8 27.Nf1 Rad8 28.d5 Nd7 29.Ne3 h5 30.f4 h4 31.f5 hxg3 32.hxg3 Bh5 33.d6 Re4 34.Rac1 Nxc5 35.bxc5 Kh7 36.Bf6 Rg8 37.d7 Rh4 38.Qg2 Bf3 39.Qxh3 Rxh3 40.Kf2 g4 41.Nf1 Rh5 42.d8=Q Rxd8 43.Bxd8 Rxf5 44.Ne3 Rh5 45.Bh4 1-0 jm
