Ben_Dubuque

Malinin Savinov because of the beautiful mate

JMB2010

ok, since we're in the quarter-finals, now once I post a matchup, the first person to post doesn't make the move win. THREE people have to post which move they think is better, and whichever move gets 2 votes, wins.

Ben_Dubuque

Im going to say Tal game because it was more entertaining, and Tal played well and it was easier to see the brilliance of the move

JMB2010

ok that's vote 1. Tal-Portisch has 1 and Brzozka Bronstein has 0
