Juhasz,Ba-Havanecz,B

Scotch 4..Bc5

rd8

After 25.Nf5(Diagram)

White is looking to exploit Black’s open king position while Black has some ideas too

What do you recommend for Black?

I contributed a win as MTK beat Sztaki(I think)

Josef,M was up two pawns in RB-RN ending

Tamas lost to a nice exchange sacrifice

Istvan won

 

Yip-Lakatos,A

Catalan

Board 3

Even a big Bounty chocolate bar was not enough to get my brain into proper thinking form

 

After 18..Kh8(Diagram)

White has a nice bind, similar to how I suffered just yesterday in the Sunday BTCh with the Na6 out of play

What do you recommend for White?

Aczel-Banusz

Slav Defence Exchange

Rd3.2

After 56..Kf6(Diagram)

White is making progress on the queenside and it looks like Black is also doing something on the kingside on the g-file

What do you recommend for White?

I lost in brutal positional fashion playing on MTK IV

White has just attacked the Re8

What do you recommend for Black?

Ch2 Exercise 835

This is considered an intermediate exercise. I am on my third cycle through the book and was working on it this morning

Black to Play

Two points are available for a correct solution but I think there is a valid alternate solution. You get one point for the first move of the correct line

The Sicilian Rossolimo is used to avoid the big theory of the Open Sicilian but is itself quite a labyrinth of theory

Selected games

 

Rozentalis-Heinemann

SI Rossolimo 3.Bb5+ Nd7 4.Ba4

Bundesliga 2018-19 rd3

The 4.Ba4 approach is quite popular now. The structure after 11..d5 12.e5 gave Black problems. The Bg7 was passive and there was no good plan to get active play

 

After 21..Qc8(Diagram)

Black has a loose kingside and is overall quite passive. The kingside is devoid of defenders while White has a menacing buildup with a crisis brewing on g6 already

What do you recommend for White?

 

Amin-Ginsburg

Sicilian Rossolimo 3..g6 4.Bxc6 dxc6 5.d3 

Bundesliga 2018-19 rd4

White play for a kingside attack and was not shy about it

 

After 13.Rhg1N(Diagram)

White has various idea like Bxg7 then Nh4-f5 etc but it cannot be so easy to whip up a storm

What do you recommend for Black?

 

Kabanov-Sarana

Sicilian Rossolimo 3.Bb5+ Nd7 4.d4

14th Ugra Governor’s Cup rd4

White lost a pawn early in the game and most of the game was a technical conversion

 

After 41.Nc3(Diagram)

Black has infiltrated and dominates the position

What do you recommend for Black?

 

Amin-Kozul

Sicilian Rossolimo 3.Bb5+ 4.Bxd7 Nxd7

Tournament of Peace 2018 rd9

White got nothing really special from the opening which featured a bind with c4/a4.

 

Position 1

After 16.Qe3(Diagram)

The Nd4 has just been reinforced and White is looking to impose his will with more space and a cramping bind

What do you recommend for Black?

 

Position 2

After 29.Rdd6(Diagram)

Black has an extra pawn and is looking to consolidate

What do you recommend for Black?
