This game was really interesting. The kind of game you rarely see with humans. Gaviota sacrificed a rook for three pawns and the whole thing went wild. It had the chance to get the exchange back (to make it N v PPP), but did not and preferred to keep increasing the piece activity. The whole thing payed off later. At the end, the move 60. Rh6 was cute.hgm wrote:Code: Select all

This is easy for engines, but I think it is very instructive for humans.

Here, Gaviota played Qd4!? rather than the normal Nxe5. The maneuver e5 e6 Ne5-g4 and Re5 (with the idea of Rg5 etc.) is interesting.

Rh6 is the only move (Kg6 Rh6 checkmate!), and it needed to be taken into account when Gaviota played Kh5 a couple of moves before. Nothing difficult, but the position is nice to see. Of course if gxh6 Qb3+ and mate soon.
