Six best games of the past week
GM Arkadij Naiditsch
Best rating:
We are in the last round of Grenke Chess Classics
.
I am on + and playing my game with White pieces against
Aronian. Magnus Carlsen is having same points and playing
White against Bacrot. Half a point behind us is playing
Caruana with Black against Baramidze. In case of same
points-there is a tiebreak for the first place. I started my
game with a save opening where I quickly got a promissing
position, so a er around hours of play, I reached a rook
endgame which I though is close to winning. As well the
position of Magnus Carlsen been looking very promissing
against Bacrot. We went into short time trouble where I
clearly missed good winning chances which made me very
upset, cause I been almost sure that Magnus has meanwhile
won his game, but... the World Champion has blondered
away his winning position and agreed already shortly a er
move
to a draw. My position still remained a bit better,
but it was just a draw, a er another hour of trying I had to
shake the hand with a draw o er. I been very upset not
to win it but felt as well a bit happy about that in worse
case I share the places - and still have my chances in the
tiebreak. Caruana been doing very well against Baramidze
and it looked like there is going to be a tiebreak with players.
A er a short press conference, my wife and me desided to
have a small snack to have more energy for the upcoming
match against the World Nr and World Nr and of course had
the Caruana game running on our mobile phones. Caruanas
game remained a rolercoster between win and a draw, so
finally, a er over hours of playing Baramdze holded the
draw-it ment a match against Magnus Carlsen for the first
place. I been very excited and happy to compete with the best
in a mini match out of games with time control of m plus
second per move for the title of Grenke Chess Classics
.
Meanwhile we had already
to pm, and the organizers
had called me that the match with Carlsen will start at around
pm. You can imagine, in case Caruana would have won his
game how late the tournament might have finished -I would
guess not earliar than am ! I think many top players are very
scared of Magnus, for me it was pure excitement. I am not bad
in rapid chess, but I am not good at all in blitz, so I though my
best chances are in m + second rather than in case of - in
blitz wih min + second. So, let us take a look how the match
would developed.

The tiebreak has begun for me with a horrible game! I came
out nicely out of opening, but started to make very bad
desicion and ended up in totally hopeles endgame where I
just had no moves. A terrible loss :)

Nf
.c e .Nf
Bb
+
I like to play ...Bb , it is a save
line where as Black You dont need to know too much theory
www.chess-newsletter.com
.Nbd
[ .Bd is the other main line]
...b .a
Bacrot continued against me with .g but of
course .a is one of the main moves
...Bxd + .Qxd
first Qd is looking like a strange move,
but the White bishop is going to take a nice position on b
...O-O .e
Bb
in this lin e it is very important for Black to
keep conrol over the e square
(in case of
.b ...Nb
.Qb
Qa
Black is great)
and Blacks position is a bit better]
.c
[maybe White could have tried .b
...Qb +
but in a rapid game it is looking like a risky try]
...Qe
.Nd
...f
very logical, gaining even more control over the e
square
.Be
avoiding tricky with Ng of Black
.b ?!
I dont think this move is the best, it gives to Black a
direct play on the Queen side. Maybe more careful is .b or
.Be
...a !
I think it is the right plan! [Another typical idea for
Black is to play ...Ne .Qc f but I think White is having a
better play a er .Bb followed by Be and short castle with
the idea of playing Ne and f ]

now I had a lot of di erent options
...Nc
not a bad move, but clearly not the most practical
one [ ...Ba would have been a normal choise. With the
exchange of biships Black is sequiring to have a normal
position]
.Bc !
a very strong move and clearly the best way of
defending the b pawn
...bxc ?!
I start to play in a wrong direction [much more
simple was ...Ra
.O-O
Qe
with the idea of Ne -Nd and
I think position remains around equal]
.dxc
White needs to take with the d pawn to have a
dangerous practical idea of playing b in a good moment
...Ra
[my initial idea was to play ...Nxc
.Qxc
Qf
but I understood that a er .Qxf gxf
.b the endgame
could be very dangerous for Black]
...Qe
quite a logical move, it is not that simple for White
to defend the b pawn in a nice way [but I had a better option
...Na ! using the moment that White cant play b
.Bc
