Re: Caruana - Svidler Rd 13

Svidler's last move 12. ... Bf8 seems to be the Novelty here.

Re: Caruana - Svidler Rd 13
After Svidler's mistake on move 102 Caruana could have played 105. Rb2 which would have mated just in time before a 50-move draw.

Re: Caruana - Svidler Rd 13
So neither Svidler nor Caruana had brain implants with 5-men TBs? Ridiculous for nowadays technology 
I remember a Kasparov-Polgar game RN vs R which Kasparov played to exhaustion and indeed Judith messed up and lost

Re: Caruana - Svidler Rd 13
105. Bf2 was a mistake because after that move there isn't enough time to force a capture or mate before the 50 move rule allows black to claim a draw. You can see the DTZ is too high from the Syzygy tablebase: https://syzygy-tables.info/?fen=8/1R6/8 ... _b_-_-_0_1yurikvelo wrote:Bf2 was not mistake, mistake was 111. Bf6??Simon Taylor wrote:105.
