Roman Jiganchine - Gerhard Neufahrt

BC Closed/Vancouver (2.1) 2001











14. g4 f5? 14... hxg4 15. Bxg4 15. gxf5 exf5 16. Nxf5! simple tactics 16... g4










17. Nxg7+?! I saw that I had a stronger move 17. Bxg4! but even though I did not see any defense for Black, I still decided not to complicate things and remain up a pawn with a clearly winning advantage. This episode shows how important is self confidence: I made my task much harder and it took more mistakes by my opponent before White eventually won. 17... Bxg7 18. Bg2 dxc4 19. bxc4 O-O 20. Qc2 Nb6 21. Be3 c5 22. dxc5 Nd7 23. Rad1 Qe7 24. Bd5+ Kh8 25. Qg6 Qe8 26. Qxe8 Rcxe8 27. e6 Ne5 28. Rb1 Nf3+ 29. Kg2 Be5 30. Rxb7 Nxh2 31. Rh1 Nf3 32. Rxh5+ Kg8 33. e7+ Rf7 34. Kf1 Kg7 35. Bxf3 Rexe7 36. Rxe7 Rxe7 37. Bxg4 1-0 [Roman Jiganchine]
