2009 Queenstown Linares Open Tournament


Why 13. ... Kh8?? and 18. ... Kh7?? ? I fail to see both why these moves were played and why they were blunders.
Could you enlighten me here? This seems like the crux to the game, and right now I am totally confused.

lol, yes i was about to say that, haha, but move number 24 is a superb thunderbolt and there is no way out for the opposition's king.
Nice attack.
But too many exclams and question marks in my opinion. Most (of both of these) were unjustified (in my opinion).
Just one thing about the finale: 26...Bg7 is not really "??". Every legal move seems to end in mate in a few moves.

Wow, you gave yourself '!!' on five different moves. Don't you think you're going a little overboard? I mean, I don't think I've seen any analyses of GM games with more than maybe three . . .
