I found an interesting game, played by Emil Sutovsky (Israel), white, against Kovachevich, (Serbia). The game reached a position, that in my opinion, is somewhat of interest. It was played roughly 3 weeks ago in Bosnia.


1.e4- e6
2.d4- d5
3.nc3- nf6
4.bg5- d*e4
5.n*e4- be7
6.b*f6- b*f6
7.nf3- 0-0
8.bd3-nd7
9.qe2-c5
10.0-0-0- c*d4
11.g4-be7. A novelty, usually g6 is being played. {comment of the newspaper}.
12.h4-qc7
13.kb1-b6
14.nfg5-bb7.
15.n*h7!!. That is the position that i have talked about. Black chose to accept the sacrifice. I ask my self (and you too [img]tongue.gif[/img] ), what will happen if black choses not to? He has now the same amount of pieces, and he has the 2 bishops advantage. Yes, white has more options of attack, but i think that maybe black has some defensive possibilities as well. Furthermore black has the center pawns (d and e) and the white pawn f2 has some defensive problems due to qc7 and bb7. i suggest to play rfc8 instead of how was played in the game:
...-k*h7.
16.nf6+ - kh8
17.g5-n*f6. {the black chooses to return the material, because after g7-g6 and h4-h5 white has a strong attack}.
18.g*f6- g6.
19.f*e7- q*e7
20.rhg1-qf6
21.rg3- e5
22.rdg1-e4
23.bc4-q*h4 {h4-h5 was too omnious}.
24.qf1!-kg7.
25.b*f7- r*f7
26.r*g6- kf8
27.qc4-qf4
28.qe6 black resigned.

I think that if the black played in the 15 move rfc8 he could have saved the position for some time, and maybe even get a draw.

The plan of the black: exchange the dangerous bd3 with the useless nd7 after ne5, play e6-e5 and bd5. Attack opportunities may present themselves after these moves.

Give some comments please!
