🔹🔺 The interesting and tactical moments
of the Isle of Man International 2017 (Douglas ENG) Round 2 🔹🔺
🔸IOM Open Masters 2017
🔸Round 2
⚪️Hikaru Nakamura 2781
⚫️Helgi Olafsson 2512
🔺1-0
📘 9...Re8
Another move would be 9...Ne8 with the interesting idea of sending the knight to c7 and starting the queenside attack with b5. It will also prevent white from playing d4. 9...Ne8 was Kasparov's favorite move.

⚪️Inna Gaponenko 2437
⚫️Nigel Short 2698
🔺0-1
📘 11.h4
With the idea of h5, getting more space in the kingside.
Another interesting idea that was applied by Sergei Zhigalko and Alexander Motylev was trading the light color bishop with the knight on c6 and then Nd4! occupying the strong d4 square and getting ready for f5.

📘 12...Qc8!
1. Moving the queen out of the opponent's rook file.
2. Preparing for centralizing the knight with Ne4
3. Having an eye on a6 square and the semi open c file.
4. Putting the queen in the same file of the opponent's king.
5. Clearing the d8 square for the rook on f8.
6. Having an eye on f5 square and also the c8-h3 diagonal.

📘21...c4? 22.Be2?

White missed an opportunity of sacrificing a bishop with strong attack. after that black must play accurately for a draw.

📘9.Nd2
One of the interesting plans of this form with the idea of e4-e5, which introduced by Paul Keres.

⭐️Paul Keres is nicknamed the crown prince of the chess, as he narrowly missed a chance at a world championship match on five occasions.
Keres has become the champion of the Soviet Union for three times.
