🔸Round 4
⚪️Grischuk,Alexander (2785)
⚫️Arnaudov,G Petar (2441)
🔸 1-0
📘 23...Rc8?
Worried about the doubled rooks on the e file, black mistakenly decided to abandon the e file. He should have prevented the knight check on g5 by playing Nh7.
24.Ng5+ Kg7 25.Re7!+ Nxe7 26.Rxe7 Kg8 27.Bc3 +- and Black is in trouble.

📘 27.Bb1!
A very strong positional maneuver. White addresses the problem of the pawn on c4, for which black has no real solution.

⚪️Harikrishna,P (2733)
⚫️Burstein,Roman (2322)
🔸 1-0
📘 Typical combination:
32.Qxe6!+- (with the idea of Qe8+)
A well-known theme which exploits both black's problem in the back rank while taking advantage of unfortunate situation of Qc5.
Bxc4 (fxe6 33.Bxe6+--->Rxc5 +-) 33.Rxc4 fxe6 34.Rxc5 +-

🔸Round 4
⚪️Mirzoev,Azer (2555)
⚫️Roobol,Martin (2289)
🔸1-0
📘 20.Nd2! +/-
With the idea of increasing the pressure on black's queenside by transferring the knight to the a5 outpost and playing b5 on a suitable occasion afterwards.
🔸33rd ECCC Open 2017 Antalya
🔸Round 4
⚪️Andreikin,Dmitry (2705)
⚫️Wagner,Dennis (2564)
🔸 1-0
📘 22.Nf4=
Andreikin could have entered a winning endgame by a forced line:
22.Nf6+ Kh8 23.Nd7 Q×d4 24.R×d4 B×g2 25.N×e5 B×f1 26.K×f1
All white pieces are more active than their counterpart and they will soon take either g6 or a7 pawn.
