TCh-BEL 2012–13 Belgium BEL (10.5), 03.03.2013
Position 1
White has parallel hanging pawns and is possibly ready to strike. What do you recommend for white?
- 23.d5(unleashing Bb2 and banking everything on the energy of the d-pawn, as played in the game)
- 23.c5(pressing the queenside and the queen)
- 23.Bb3(keeping the tension and all options open)
- Somthing else

Position 2
White has an isolated pawn but what is the correct followup?

Black won two bishops for a rook and eventually won in a sharp ending.
Bundesliga 2012–13 Emsdetten GER (8), 03.02.2013
Position 1
Black dominates the position with pressure on the d-file, the d4 outpost and mobile queenside majority. How should black continue?
