Joined 24 Aug '07 Moves 48477 Here's a very interesting 3 0 game that I just played at FICS.
I lost the game, but I felt I did really well.
Towards the end I was in extreme time trouble and did flag.
[Event "ICS Rated blitz match"]
27. ... Rxe4 ! was what I missed. (28.Rxe4 Qg6 ! )
In the game, 28.Be3! would have exploited my mistake.
All in all a very exciting game.
Joined 24 Aug '07 Moves 48477 I got my revenge in the next game but again only after an extreme time scramble.
[Event "ICS rated blitz match"]
The time scramble started around move 30.
I got the idea of this exchange and letting black double the kingside pawns for the g file from Blackburne's book of games.
13.Bxf6 ! was a simple tactic that I overlooked. 🙁
I have to give my opponent his due. He is one tough cookie. 🙂
Joined 24 Aug '07 Moves 48477 By the way, does anyone know the modern GM consensus on the Ruy Lopez Breyer. I know Spassky and Karpov used it. Does anyone use it anymore?

A quick scan on www.chessgames.com shows Nigel Short and Wang Yue did play it last year, but to properly answer your question, Gata Kamsky is using it with reasonable success including a win over Peter Leko:

Edit: Nice games by the way 🙂

Thanks for the kind words and the info. I will have to take a good look at those games.
