🔸Bundesliga 2017
🔸Round 1
⚪️Anand,Viswanathan (2783)
⚫️ Li,Chao b (2739)
🔸½-½
📘 Anand missed the win by playing 50.Kg3?. He could have won by playing 50.Kf4!
Can you spot the difference between these two moves?
A) 50.Kg3? Re2! (50...Kf5? 51.e6+-) 51.e6 (51.Kf4 h4! 52.e6 h3) 51...Kf6 52.Rf7+ Ke5!=
B) 50.Kf4! h4 51.e6 h3 52.e7 Re2 53.Kf3! (53.Kg3 h2!) Re1 or Re5 54.Kg3+-
It seems that 50.Kf4 was necessary to keep e5 out of black king's hands.

The only active plan for white is to play f4, and to play f4, the h4 pawn needs protection.
21.Ng2!

17...Rg8!
Kramnik played this mysterious strong move not just to protect g7, but to play g5 and activate his rook by a rook lift via g6.

At a cost of a pawn white has great lead in development, while black suffers from discoordination of his pieces and his king safety issue.
19.Qd1!!+- threatening both 20.Bf5! and 20.Ng5!
Black has no acceptable solution to deal with the strong retreat of the queen to her original square!
