Mar 7, 2010 - Nice! I came up against the Marshal for the first time on FICS the other day - it seems very underplayed. I studied it at one point but nobody ever used it and I forgot the line. But after getting whooped twice I wanted to brush up. This counter attack seems great - thanks!

Mar 11, 2010 - after Re4, Svidler plays g5! If Bxg5, Qf5, picking up a piece.

Jul 15, 2010 - ...Qxg4. The queen has a bishop to back her up

Timmey1983 Says:

Jul 1, 2011 - at 7:10 your opponent can cover the checkmates with Qh3. he didnt have to give up his queen

tgwnn Says:

Jul 5, 2011 - it looks like he can play 1 .. Qh3 2 Nxe8+ Kg8 3 Nf6+ Kg7 4 Bh4, no?

tayrone2001 Says:

Jul 25, 2011 - it is the time control. there are different types of them. 2hours for 40 moves (SD=swiss system or so?) and 60 minutes maybe for the rest of the game. mostly 30 min each player has left after the 2 h to finish the game.

Jan 11, 2012 - This game is amazing. I checked with the database and it seems like 12. d3 is better scoring for white than the more popular 12. d4 move. Those tactics at the end were mind blowing. I couldn't find what I should play when I paused the video and it totally looked like the rook was trapped. I checked the game with Rybka though and it showed me what to do almost immediately.

Feb 9, 2012 - I think the 2B2R vs R+Q was quite interesting. And your opponent did not use his potential properly. The endgame should have been played better. Even run it on Fritz and see how it goes.

ColbertandStewartpwn Says:

Mar 30, 2012 - At 4:58 what if rook takes knight? It's equal after bishop takes rook, or am I missing something?

ljeffrey12 Says:

Apr 13, 2012 - if ..R x Kt then B x R then it's more straightforward as white will earn a black pawn on the h file. author is just showing that if black does not want to exchange the rook for knight then it still can be forced to do so later by Bf4(ch.)
