Roman Jiganchine - Nigel Fullbrook

BC Closed/Vancouver (6.1) 2001











12... f5?! From the opening Black aimed for a complicated position, and created some weaknesses in White's pawn structure on the queenside. 12... O-O followed by f7-f5 was probably best now, with White still having some initiative 13. exf6 Bxf6 14. Ng5!?










14... g6? 14... Bxg5 15. Qh5+ g6 16. Bxg6+ hxg6 17. Qxh8+ Kf7 18. Qh7+ Kf8 19. Qxg6 Bxc1 20. Raxc1 seems to be playable for Black During the game I was also worried about 14... Qe7 but 15. Nxh7 O-O-O 16. Qa4 Kb8 17. Rb1 Bh4 18. f4 seems to be good for White. 15. Nxh7! Rxh7 16. Bxg6+ Rf7 17. Qh5 Qe7 18. Qh7 Kf8? This allows immediate mate, but after 18... Nd5 19. Qg8+ Qf8 20. Bxf7+ (that's the point of White's combination, he does return a piece back) 20... Ke7 21. Qxf8+ Rxf8 22. Bh5 Nxc3 23. Be3 White's material advantage should decide the game 19. Bh6+










19... Bg7 19... Ke8 20. Qg8+ Qf8 21. Qxf8# 20. Qh8# 1-0 [Roman Jiganchine]
