Key moments
The Brilliant and Great moves, and the costliest mistakes, as the review explains them.
21…Ng4: Mistake
21…Ng4 is a mistake: Black's winning chances go from 50% to 38%.
- White answers 22.Rf3, which brings the rook, White's least active piece, into play (from 2 to 5 usable squares).
- Better was 21…gxf4 (0.00), which takes the pawn on f4.
Better: 21…gxf4 stops fxe5. After 22.Qxf4 Qxf4 23.Nxf4 Bc6 24.Nh5 Kh7, the queens come off (0.00).
22…Bb5: Blunder
22…Bb5 is a blunder: Black's winning chances go from 43% to 18%.
- White answers 23.c4, which attacks the bishop on b5, which is undefended.
- Better was 22…gxf4 (+0.78), which takes the pawn on f4.
Better: 22…gxf4 stops h3. After 23.Rxf4 Qg7 24.Nd4 Ra8 25.Rxa8 Rxa8 26.Rxf7 Kh8, the rooks are traded and Black is a pawn down (+0.78).
The opening
Bishop's Opening: Vienna Hybrid (C24)
- Both sides followed opening theory up to 9…g5: 18 moves in all, 9 by White and 9 by Black.
- Theory runs out after 9…g5: too few games between strong players reached this position to go further.
