Fadzil Nayan - Abdul Haq

Ahmad Fadzil Nayan (IIUM) - Abdul Haq Muhammad (UKM)

MASUM , Round 6, 29.5.2010


Analysed by Abdul Haq and Hairulov in italic

1. d4 e6 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. c4 d5 4. g3

Hairulov: Haq Fadzil follow the latest trend. The Catalan is Anand main weapon in his recent match against Topalov in the 2010 World Championship Final.


4... dxc4 5. Bg2 c6  Hairulov: Topalov played 5... a6 in his match against Anand.  


6. Qc2 Abdul Haq : After the tournament end, Fadzil told me  that  he missed 6.Ne5 


6...Bb4+ Haq: Maybe Fadzil think that i will not capture the pawn and try  to hold it. However, Fadzil DO NOT KNOW THAT in UKM MASUM training  camp, our coach En Shamsuddin Mat Isa  always said ``FREE MUST TAKE``!!! So I follow coach  advice.


7. Bd2 Bxd2+ 8. Nbxd2 b5 9. a4 Haq: If white play 9. Ne5 i will answer it with 9...Nd5 . Hairulov: I think 9... Bb7 developing another piece is also ok.   


9... Bb7 10. e4 Haq: This look strong for white but at the same time black feel  better because there is no attack from white's bishop on g2  Hairulov:  10. b3 as suggest by theory is probably better. The line goes
cxb3 11. Nxb3 Nbd7 12. O-O O-O 13. Ne5 Nxe5 14. dxe5 Nd5 15. Nc5 Qe7 16. Rfc1 


10... Na6 11. O-O Nb4 Haq: I try to adjust my knight position and the same time chase white's queen. 


12. Qc3 Qe7 Haq: 12.Qc3 is welcome because i have plan 12... Qe7 and and my knight on b4 is strong!

13. Ne1?! Hairulov: White want to guard the d3 square from black's knight and open the diaganol for his bishop but probably better is to put his knight on the more active square  with 13. Ne5! 


13... a6 14. Nc2 Nxc2 15. Qxc2 e5 Haq: Black secured the center and reduce white superiority on the center. 


16. Nf3 exd4 17. Nxd4 O-O 18. Nf5 Qe5 Haq: I provoke  white to play f4  


19. f4 Qc5+  20. Kh1 Rad8 21. h3?! Hairulov: White probably afraid of black playing Ng4 but actually it not so dangerous. He can play 21. e5 Ng4 22. Bf3 Ne3? 23. Qf2 


21... Bc8 22. Nh4? Hairulov: 22. Qf2!? would keep White alive. 22...Qb4 (22...Qxf2 23.Ne7+ Kh8 24.Rxf2) 23. Nd4 


22... Rd3 Hairulov: Black's now has a commanding position.  


23. g4? Hairulov: a mistake which however missed by black  


23... Qe3 Haq :  At this time, black has to change the queen because white try to  attack black king.  Hairulov:  Haq missed 23... Nxe4! winning a pawn and destroy white's center 24. Bxe4 Rxh3+ 25. Kg2 Rxh4 26. g5 Rg4+ 


24. Rae1 Qd2 25. Qb1? losing a pawn  


25... Rb3 26. Rd1 Qxb2 27. Qxb2 Rxb2 28. e5 Nd5 29. Bxd5 cxd5 30. Rxd5?? A blunder in a difficult position  30...Bb7 White resign... 0-1

Chess Puzzle (19) Solution !

The puzzle  below is a famous chess problems  which many strong GMs (past and present) failed to solve. Some solve it after spending a day or a lot of hours over it. Among super GM who failed to solved it is Paul Keres, Bisguer, Robert Byrnes, Lothar Schmid and the current GMs - Gabriel Sargissian, Evgeny Najer , Daniel Fridman ,David Navara, Vugar Gashimov, Viktor Bologan and Ivan Sokolov.

The idea for white is to check along g-file using his rook!

White to move and draw!

 1. Nh6!!! Rxa7  and now White has perpetual check along the g-file! Draw. The idea is black's king can avoid a perpetual from g-file by white's rook even if his king move toward the rook. It is because the rook is safely protected on g-file. Two more obvious moves is 


a) taking the knight with 1... Rxh6 also draw after 6.a8=Q Rxa8 2. Rxa8 Rxh5+ 3. Kg3 and black pawn will drop 3...Rg5+ 4. Kf4 Rg2 5. Rxa3 draw


b) ignoring white move and push his a-pawn still draw because black can't avoid perpetual by white's rook for e.g  1

... a2 2. Rg7+ Kc6 

3. Rg6+ Kb7 4. Rg7+ Ka8 5. Rg8+ Kxa7 white still draw even after his a-pawn being captured! 6. Rg7+ Kb6 7. Rg6+ etc. Black's king can't escape the check

2. Rg7+ Kc6 3. Rg6+ Kb5 4. Rg5+ Kc4 5. Rg4+ Kd3 6. Rg3+ Ke2 7. Rg2+ Kf3 8. Rg3+ Kf4 9. Rg4+ Ke3 1/2-1/2

In my case, i of course failed to solve it . Now i give you the chance to prove that you are 'smarter' then the GMs mentioned above. Try to find white only move and it sequences which force a draw. Try it on your own first before asking for assistance... especially from your chess computer program.

Chess Puzzle (18) Solution !

Answer for chess puzzle 18

Hairulov-vkop

ICC, blitz 5

White to move

1.Bf8 okay computer may prefer 1.Bd5 but i think in practical term 1.Bf8 is best ( against human of course!) because black then had to find all the best move to prevent being mate immediately. For e.g after 1.Bf8 the most stubborn defense is 1...g5 to prevent checkmate with 2.Qh6++. However let's have a look if black play other move

a) 1...Rg7?? of course lost to  2.Qh6+ Rh7 3.Qxh7++ checkmate and;

b) 1...Qxf6?? lost 2.Qxh6++ checkmate

c) 1...Rgxf8?? lost to 2.Qxh6++ checkmate also

So lets go back to the main line  1...g5, white's queen access to the h6 square have been shut down for a while and black's is threatening to capture white's bishop on f8. Black's also threaten to take on e5. So white's must maintain the mating threat with 2.Qe2 threatening 3.Qh5 and checkmate will follow.2...g4  Now, black once against shut white's queen access to the mating square on h5. 3.Qd2 white's queen return to his previous square and as before, threatening mate on h6. Another idea behind this move is pawn can't go backward , so black's g-pawn cannot return to g6 anymore. So black have to find other move. 3...Rg6 this move is available thanks to black moving his g6 pawn a couple of move before. 4.Re1 and 4.hxg6 both win and i think i should stop here because white is totally winning in both variation. However 4.Re1 is a little bit tricky because black can play 4...Qxf6 but after 5.Be7! three of his major pieces is En Prise and the end is near.

Chess Puzzle (18)

It's have been quite sometimes since i  post a chess puzzle here. So guys... here we go.

Okay, some of you may notice from the diagram below that white is an exchange up and in totally winning position. However if you in time trouble you must find the quickest and best way to finish off you opponent. Try to find it for white. If you want to test your tactical ability, try it on your own first before asking for assistance... especially from your chess computer program.

The position below arise from one of my recent Internet Chess Club(ICC) blitz ( 5 minute) game.

Yours truly (left) and Anuar Ahayat in a training session way back to 1994

I found a photo of me training chess with my chess team mate - Anuar Ahayat  uploaded in facebook. The photo was captured way back on  1994 when were both  studying in Kulim, Kedah. Anuar was my team mate and we played together in chess tournaments back then. This photo remind me  the good old days when chess come second after study although many time it happen to be vice versa :) . Thanks Anuar...by the way i try to set the position and if i'm not mistaken it was my turn to move ...

GM Ziaur Rahman - NM Kamal Ariffin

As you all have already know, last night my team - Nusa Mahkota was steamrolled 4-0 by Think Big . Before the game, there are a few friends suggest to us to  'sacrifiece' the first board and concentrate on the lower boards where Think Big is relatively not quite strong. The idea is to get points in lower boards.

However, i choose to differ and as the team captain, i decide to choose our strongest player - NM Kamal Ariffin against Think Big first board -  GM Ziaur Rahman.  I remember one  International Master- - Emory Tate  from US who was well known as a GM beater, he once said a  famous quote - " to beat a GM, you must bite the bullet" and that is the reason why i give  Kamal a chance to faced the GM. Unfortunately however... Kamal probably bite too much bullets against GM Ziaur :)

3rd DATCC Team Event, Round 8, 20.5.2010


Analysed by Centaur (Hairulov + Fritz)


1.d4 d5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. c4 e6 4. g3 dxc4 5. Bg2 Bb4+ 6. Bd2 a5 7. Qc2

7... c6 ?! i think this move is the main mistake because black position look passive after it and his pieces seems uncoordinated. During the post game analysis , i suggest to Kamal and Saprin Sabri the move 7... Nc6 and after 8.Qxc4 Qd5 we found that Black will have a much better and easier game . I was glad to found that Fritz opening book also suggest the same continuation and the line continue with 9. Qd3 O-O 10. Nc3 Qh5 11. a3 Bxc3 12. Bxc3 b6 13. O-O Ba6 14. Qc2 Ne7 15. Rfe1 c5 etc. 8. Qxc4 b5 9. Qc2 O-O 10. O-O Bb7 11. Bg5 Be7 12. Nbd2!? Black knight aiming the c5 square.12...Na6 13. Nb3 Nb4 14. Qc1 Rc8 14... h6 15. Bxf6 Bxf6 16. Nc5  15. Nc5White knight nicely occupied the c5 square and prevent Black's from playing the freeing move ....c5  15...Ba8 16. a3 Nbd5 

GM Ziaur Rahman (left) before playing 17.Ne5 against NM Kamal Ariffin

17. Ne5 The other knight join the fun. White had a strong outpost on c5 and e5.

17...a4 18.Rd1 Re8 19. h4 h6 20. Bd2 Bf8 21. e4 Ne7 21... Nb6 22. Ba5! with an annoying pin. 22. Bb4 Qc7 23. Bh3 Rcd8? Actually, Black have not many  useful move.23... Kh7 was suggested by Fritz but i think even the computer could not save the position against strong opponent like GM Ziaur Rahman.

24. Nxf7! doomsday 24...Kxf7 25. Bxe6+ Kg6 26. e5 Kh7 Nothing can stop white, for e.,g :-

26... Nfg8 27. Qc2+ Kh5 28. Qe2+ Kg6 29. Qe4+ Nf5 30. Qxf5# checkmate

26... Nf5 27. Bxf5+ Kxf5 28. Qc2+ Kg4 29. Kg2 Qf7 30. Qe2+ Kf5 31. Qd3+ Kg4 32. Qf3# checkmate

27. exf6 White regain his piece with an overwhelming position. 27...Nd5 28. f7 Re7 29. Qc2+ For player who prefer to be greedy, here's an option 29. Na6 Qa7 30. Bxe7 29... Kh8 30. Qg6 Rd6 31. Re1 Nxb4 32. axb4 Bb7 33. Re5 Black resign. Some may think it's still early to resign but probably Kamal have look that after for e.g Bc8 34. Rh5 Rxf7 35. Qxf7 Qxf7 36. Bxf7...black position  is hopeless 1-0
