4...Rb3 5.Rd1! Ba6 6.Bxa6 Rxe3
6...Nxa6 7.Nxf5! gxf5 8.Rxd8 Rxd8 9.Qe5 +-
7.Nxf5 gxf5 8.Rxd8 Rxd8 9.Bc4
Thanks to his strong passed pawn and the exposed black king, White is practically winning.
Klovans - Nataf
Pardubice 2002
Black to move
By tactical means Black nullifies the weak squares on d5 and e4.
2.Qxe4?
Instead, 2.Qd1 was correct, when 2...Ne7 3.Be6 Bf4 4.g3 Rf6! 5.Bh3 Bh6 6.Qa1 Nc6 yields Black a slight advantage – Nataf. The desired ...d6-d5 is just one move away.
2.Bxe4? also failed to d5.
2...Ne7! 3.Bb7 d5 4.Qd4 Qc7! 5.Ne5 Nf5 6.Qg4 Bh6 7.Nd3 Rxc3 8.Ba6 Qb6! 9.Re1 g6!
Avoiding any tricks with 10 Qxf5. Incapable of saving his bishop, White resigned.
Ftacnik - Narciso Dublan
Lisbon 2001
White to move
Preparing to triple the major pieces on the d-file towards the weakness on d5.
1...Re7
1...Rc8 2.Rd2 Ne7 3.Rxc8 Qxc8 4.Rc2 Qa8 5.Bd6 with a clear advantage – Ftacnik.
