Games
vs Blum, Gernot (2064)
1–0Board one against the top seed, and for eighteen moves it was a real game — then I thought for about a minute on 19...Qf7 and hung my queen the second I let go of her. Instead of resigning I took everything I could get for her — rook, bishop, rook — and tried to strangle his king on the light squares, until 25...h5 walked into a simple fork and cost me the second rook. My king walk to the queenside was the last real idea; 31.h4 shut it down, and 34.Qa5 killed the pawn storm that was my final piece of compensation.
← → to step through the game
My alternative: bishop and rook for the queen with a healthy structure. I think this was objectively the better version.
What I would play instead of 25...h5 once I see the fork.
