World Youth Chess Championships 20-30 October

[Ola Winfridsson]

Stockfish showing a serious disadvantge for Black now 1.37. I think we need a few fingers crossed now

But doesn't it look very difficult to win for White? Admittedly, I'm working at the mo, so not really focusing, but I find it hard to formulate a winning plan for White that isn't fairly easy to thwart for Black. [posted after 56...Rc8]

[Matthew Turner]

Assessment back down to 0.2. I've almost given up trying to understand what is going on.

[Christopher Kreuzer]

It would help those of us following this later (i.e following this thread when playing through the game later) if people said what move they were referring to when they posted!

[Matthew Turner]

Back to 1.37 again! Bxd3 was a mistake, g6 maybe instead

[Christopher Kreuzer]

Is there a link available to the game?

[James Coleman]

I'm just using the official site http://wycc2010.chessdom.com/live-games ... girls-u14/

[Ola Winfridsson]

Surely, now (Felix's just played 67...Rc4+) it must be drawn? How can White break through?

[Matthew Turner]

White just played 72 Bxf6 which I am amazed by. f4 seemed 'forced' surely it is a simple draw now.

Yes, odd indeed, but even after 72.f4 it's hard to see a win for White, don't you think?

[Matthew Turner]

You are relying on Black making a mistake, but we have had five hours of play and f4 was much more challenging.

[Ola Winfridsson]

That's true!

[James Coleman]

I wouldn't have allowed 92.Rc7+ but I guess it's still drawn

[Richard Bates]

I trust Felix will be suitably discourteous to his opponent at the end of this game.

[Matthew Turner]

young Mr. Rapport had better be good, because I don't think he'll have a lot of friends to help him out.

[Rob Thompson]

All in all, this is utterly pathetic
