(1) GM Alexandra Kosteniuk (2573) - Lazar Vilotijevic (1660) [B54] Alexandra Kosteniuk Simul Atlanta, Georgia, 07.05.2010 [EE] 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6 5.Nc3 Bg7 6.Be3 Bd7 7.Bc4 Qc7 8.Bb3 a6 9.0-0 Bc6 10.Nd5 Bxd5 11.Bxd5 Nd7 12.c3 Ngf6 13.Qd2 Nb6 14.Bh6 0-0 15.Bxg7 Kxg7 16.Be6 This trappy move is a mistake. 16...h6 [16...fxe6 17.Nxe6+ Kf7 18.Nxc7 wins the Queen. (Beware of Grandmasters offering pieces.); 16...Nxe4 but Black can take this pawn instead!] 17.Rfe1 Rad8 18.Bb3 Nc4 19.Qe2 Na5 20.Bc2 e5 21.Nf3 Qc4 22.Qxc4 Nxc4 23.Bb3 Na5 [23...Nxb2 is possible here. 24.Re3 Rc8 25.Nd2 b5 26.Rb1 Nc4 retaining a pawn advantage.] 24.Bd5 Rd7 25.b4 Nc6 26.Bb3 Rfd8 27.Ba4 b5 28.Bb3 d5 29.exd5 Nxd5 30.Nxe5 Nxe5 31.Rxe5 Nxc3 32.Rae1 Nd5 33.a3 Kf6 34.g3 Re7 35.f4 Rxe5 36.Rxe5 Ne7 37.Kf2 Rd2+ 38.Re2 Rd3 39.Re3 Rd2+ 40.Kf3 Rxh2 41.Rd3 Nf5 42.Rd7 g5 43.Rxf7+ Kg6 44.Rd7 Rh3 45.Bc2 g4+ White offers a draw. If 46.Kxg4, Rxg3 is mate! [45...Rxg3+ wins a pawn but it is a likely draw.] 1/2-1/2 Lazar played a confident game. He avoided a trap, and more than held his own in the endgame. At the end, he was the one with an advantage.
