📘 25...Re4?
Mosadeghpour could have finished the game by playing 25...Ra4! with a forced checkmate.
26.f5 Qb4 0-1
White lost on time in a better position, for example:
27.f×g6 f×g6 28.Bc1! With the idea of a3 —>R×h4
🔸Russian Championship Superfinal 2017
🔸Round 3
⚪️Matlakov,Maxim (2735)
⚫️Inarkiev,Ernesto (2689)
🔸½-½
📘 31...N×f2?
The only move was 31...Qc6!:
[31...Qc6! 32.N×e4
(N×f8? Ng5 -/+) Q×e6=]
32.Rd2+- (R×d5! +-)
🔸Russian Championship Superfinal 2017
🔸Round 3
⚪️Volkov,Sergey (2645)
⚫️Svidler,Peter (2765)
🔸0-1
📘 23...e6!!
Svidler's creative move that reflects the ability of his calculation and tactics.
24.g×f5 e×d5 25.Ba6? c4 26.Qa4 Rb2 27.Nf3 Ree2 -+
🔸Russian Championship Superfinal 2017
🔸Round 4
⚪️Riazantsev,Alexander (2650)
⚫️Dubov,Daniil (2683)
🔸½-½
📘 9...b5!?
An interesting and very rare move which introduced by Cuban grandmaster, Walter Arencibia in 1998.
The idea behind the move is controlling c4 square and preventing of Qa4 and Bc4. If:
10.B×b5 Qa5 Black has enough compensation.
10.Rc1 Ba6 11.Be2 b4

🔸Ivanchuk,V
🔸Tabatadze,T
🔸Leningrad
📘 14.Ra4!
White prevents ...c5-c4, defends e4 horizontally along the rank and vacates the long a1-h8 diagonal.
14.Qf1 Nd4 15.Rg3 c4(15...e6!?) 16.Bxc4 Nxc2.
14.Nxb5 axb5 15.Bxb5 Nxe4 with a complicated game.

🔸Ivanchuk,Vassily (2695)
🔸Anand,Viswanathan (2720)
🔸Buenos Aires 1994
📘 17.h4!
Ivanchuk initiates a kingside assault based on the opening of the h-file with h4-h5.
17.Bxc5? Rxc5 It is obvious that after this exchange black is ok. Without his dark-square bishop, white cannot hope to succeed an attack against the enemy king.
17.Bd4 Bxd5 18.exd5 Bxd4 19.Qxd4 Qf8 with the idea of Qf8.
