[10...Nbd7 11.0-0-0 d5 12.exd5 Bxd5 13.Bf4 Qb7 14.Nf5 Qb6 15.Rhe1 0-0-0 16.Bg5 Nc5 17.Bxf6 gxf6 18.Qd4 Bc6 19.Qxf6 Nd7 20.Ne7+ Bxe7 21.Qxe7 Rhf8 22.Rd6 Qc7 23.Red1 Rde8 24.Qh4 Nb6 25.Qb4 Kb7 26.a4 bxa4 27.Ne4 Bxe4 28.Rd7 1-0 Shirov,A-Gelfand,B/Monaco 2004; 10...Be7 11.0-0-0 0-0 12.g4 Nc6 13.g5 Nd7 14.Rhg1 Na5 15.f4 Rfc8 16.Kb1 Nb6 17.Qe1 Nac4 18.Bxc4 Nxc4 19.Rd3 g6 20.Bc1 Rab8 21.h4 Ba8 22.h5 b4 23.axb4 Rxb4 24.hxg6 fxg6 25.b3 Na5 26.Bb2 e5 27.Nd5 Bxd5 28.Qxb4 Bc4 29.bxc4 exd4 30.Rxd4 Bf8 31.Rd5 Nxc4 32.Qc3 Qb6 33.Qh8+ Kf7 34.Rg3 Nxb2 35.Qxb2 Qc7 36.Rb3 Be7 37.f5 Qc4 38.f6 Bf8 39.Rb7+ Ke6 40.Rd4 Qc3 41.Qxc3 Rxc3 42.Rb8 Kf7 43.Rdb4 1-0 Leko,P-Van Wely,L/Monaco 2002] 11.0-0-0 b4 12.axb4 Nxb4 13.g4 Be7 14.g5 Nd7 15.h4 Nc5 16.Kb1 Rb8 17.h5 0-0 18.g6 After the game both players had a post mortem and most variations are from them. Not everything might be entirely correct, but some lines are just a lot of fun! [18.Ncb5 Qa5 19.Na3 Bxe4 20.fxe4 Nxe4 21.Qe1 Rfc8 22.Nb3 Qxa3 23.bxa3 Nxc2 24.Qa5 Rxb3+ 25.Ka2 Rxe3 26.Bxa6 Rc5-+] 18...Bf6 19.Rdg1 Ba8 After a long think played by Kasparov and he was very happy with his decision after the game: "A great move!" [Kasparov was less sure about the main alternative: 19...Qb6 20.h6 hxg6 21.hxg7 Bxg7 22.Nxe6 Bxe4 (22...fxe6 23.Rxg6 Kf7 24.Rxg7+ Kxg7 25.Bh6+ Kf7 26.Bxf8) 23.fxe4 Nd5 (23...Na2 24.Nb5 Here Kasparov stopped calculating, but things are not clear yet: (24.Na4 Qxb2+ 25.Nxb2 Rxb2+ 26.Ka1) 24...Nxe4 25.Qd3 Qxb5 26.Qxb5 fxe6 27.Qxb8 Rxb8 28.Kxa2 Rxb2+ 29.Ka3 Rxc2 30.Bg4 Rc3+ 31.Kb4 Rxe3) 24.Na4] 20.Bg5 Not a good move, it seems like an attacking move but it really closes the g-file. [20.Bh6 Nbd3 21.gxh7+ Kh8 22.Ndb5 axb5 23.Bxd3; 20.Bd1 was indicated afterwards by both players, but clearly white is not proving an advantage with such a move.; 20.Rg4 is a logical move 20...Qb6 21.gxh7+ Kxh7 22.Ncb5 Qa5 23.Na3; 20.gxh7+ Kh8 21.Bg5 Be5 22.h6 g6 23.f4 Nxe4 24.Nxe4 Bxe4 25.fxe5 dxe5 26.Rh4 Qa5 27.Bc4 Bd5 (27...Rfc8 28.Bf6+ Kxh7 29.Nxe6+-) 28.Bf6+ Kxh7 29.Nf3 Bxf3 30.Rxg6 fxg6 31.Qd7++-] 20...Be5 21.gxh7+ [21.Bh6 fxg6 (21...Nxc2 both players thought that this would lead to a draw 22.Bxg7 (22.Kxc2 fxg6 23.hxg6 Nxe4 24.fxe4 Bxe4+ 25.Kd1+/-) 22...Bxg7 23.gxh7+ Kxh7 24.Rxg7+ Kxg7 25.Nf5+ exf5 26.Qg5+=) 22.hxg6 Nbd3 (22...Qb7 was given by Kasparov 23.Bc4 (23.Nd1 Nxc2 24.gxh7+ Kh8-/+) 23...Nxc2 24.Qxc2 (24.Nb3 Na3+ 25.bxa3 d5 26.Nxd5 exd5 27.Bxd5+ Qxd5 28.exd5 Nxb3) 24...Bxd4 25.Bc1-+) 23.cxd3 Bxd4 24.gxh7+ Kh8-+] 21...Kxh7 22.Nb3?? A blunder by Adams, clearly black is having not any problems, maybe he's even slightly better, but this move just throws the game. 22...Nxc2 Maybe Adams overlooked this blow? 23.Nxc5 Na3+ 24.Ka2 Qxc5 25.Na4 Nc2 26.Kb1 Qa3 0-1
