? Hi all, that game, shown by Daniel King is sooo weird!
Out of curiosity, I thought I'd have a look. This is what I think, but it would be good if we could get answer from Daniel King himself ....
? At first Anand falls behind in development & Daniel praises this,
Not sure what you mean here. Where could black have developed quicker, apart from maybe Rc8 instead of a6 ?
* then when Anand has succeeded
? in fixing his opponent's isolated d pawn, he allows him to axchange it!
That could have done with a bit more explanation. I would guess that since there wasn't any obvious way of winning the d pawn, Anand traded the weak d pawn for another weakness - the a3 pawn and threats against the king.
? I must be awfully daft, because I didn't see any advantage in that. Later
? on it seems to me that salov could have tried to swap Qs many times to
? draw the game.
Can you give an example that doesn't loose the a3 pawn ?
? What do yous think?
I wondered why, since opening the h file was good for black, that white didn't prevent this by g4 at some point. Maybe this weakens the f pawn a bit, but black could loose his h pawn to g5 at tome point.
