X0 Gruenfeld Defense: (D89) - Exchange, Classical - Spassky variation, main line: 13.Bd3
1.d4
X1 Nf6
X2 2.c4
X3 g6
X4 3.Nc3
X5 d5

X20 11.f3
X21 Na5
X22 12.Bd3
X23 cxd4
X24 13.cxd4
X25 Be6
X26
This beginning caracterizes the Spassky variation, main line, with Bd3, many often played since 1944.
14.d5
X27
A radical way for eliminating the dangerous Bishop g7.
[ Is also many often played: 14.Rc1
X28 like in the brief draw: 14...Bxa2
X29 15.Qa4
X30 Be6
X31 16.d5
X32 Bd7
X33 17.Qb4
X34 b6
X35 18.Ba6
X36 Spassky Boris, V - Shamkovich, Leonid 1/2-1/2 (D89), Sochi, 1967]
14...Bxa1
X37 15.Qxa1
X38 f6
X39 16.Qd4
X40
A secondary line. Many other moves have been tested; principally:
[ 1) 16.Rb1
X41 . For example: 16...Bf7
X42 17.Bh6
X43 Re8
X44 18.Bb5
X45 Qb6+
X46 19.Nd4
X47 Red8
X48 20.Be3
X49 Qd6
X50 21.Bd2
X51 b6
X52 22.Ba6
X53 unclear. Polgar, Zsuzsa (2400), Du Chattel, Philippe, 1-0 (D89), Utrecht op., 1986 ;
2) 16.Qb1
X54 . An old, well-forgetten move (Krasenkow in ChessBase DVD). This retort is played occasionally since 1964, with possibly the continuation: 16...Bf7
X55 17.Nd4!
X56 (Krasenkow) 17...Rc8
X57 18.Qb4
X58 b6
X59 19.Bh6
X60 Rc5
X61 20.Nb5
X62 e6!
X63 (Krasenkow) 21.Bxf8
X64 Kxf8
X65 22.Nxa7=
X66 Berkesz, Ferenc (2614) - Flumbort, Andros (2493), 1/2-1/2, (D89), HUN-ch 54th, Budapest, 2004;
3) 16.Bh6
X67 is in fact the most usual answer and typically a thematic move of the position. A famous example is given by the historical game: 16...Qb6+
X68 17.Kh1
X69 Rfd8
X70 18.Rb1
X71 Qc5
X72 19.Bd2
X73 b6
X74 20.Bb4
X75 Qc7
X76 21.Rc1
X77 Qb7
X78 22.Qb1
X79 +/= Bronstein, David I - Boleslavsky, Isaak, 1-0, (D89), Candidate playoff 1pl, 1950.]
16...Bf7
X80
[ Or: 16...Bd7
X81 17.Bh6
X82 Re8
X83 18.e5
X84 Qb6
X85 19.Qxb6
X86 axb6
X87 20.e6
X88 Ba4=

17.Bh6
X90 Re8

X93
The only choice.
19.Qf2

[ Rarely played is 19.Qd3
X95 with for example the suite: 19...Re7
X96 20.f4
X97 a6
X98 21.Ba4
X99 b5
X100 22.Bc2
X101 -/+ Wicht, Juergen (2005) - Schmidt, Bernhard (2285), 0-1, (D89), Porz op 29th, 1993]
19...Re7
X102 20.f4
X103
[ Possible is: 20.Ng3
X104 Qb6
X105 21.Qxb6
X106 axb6
X107 22.f4
X108 Be8
X109 23.Be2
X110 Bd7
X111 Zude, Erik - Novotry, Mich, 0-1, (D89), Pardubice op., 2005]
20...exf4
X112 21.Qxf4
X113 Qb6+
X114 22.Kh1
X115 Bxd5!
X116
[ Is obviously impossible: 22...Qxb5??
X117 23.Qxf6
X118 and Black is mate in 6!]
23.exd5
X119 Qxb5
X120 24.Qxf6
X121 Qe8
X122 25.Qd4
X123 Rd8N
X124
A novelty, not very spectacular indeed, but logical; Shirov chooses to make pressure, without delay, on the weak isolated d5-pawn... Effectively, in the spirit of the Gruenfeld, all the strong center of White pawns have been destroyed and the only survivor of the sinking is rather fragile.
[ Is known: 25...Rc8!?
X125 With the idea: ...Rc4 26.Ng3
X126 Rf7
X127 27.Rxf7
X128 Qxf7
X129 28.h3
X130 Rc4
X131 29.Qe5=
X132 Del Rio Angeli - Konguvel, Ponnu, 1/2-1/2, (D89), Badalona op. 32, 2006]
26.h3
X133 Rf7
X134 27.Rxf7
X135 Qxf7
X136 unclear
With the quality moreover, Black seems to have the advantage. Nevertheless White minor pieces are dangerous and well-positioned.
28.Qc3
X137 b6
X138 29.Ng3!
X139
With the idea: Ne4-Nf6+; and in the same time White controls the f1-square.
29...Nb7
X140 30.Ne4
X141 Qe7
X142
The only move in view to maintain the equality.
31.Nf6+!
X143
The only possibility!
31...Kf7
X144 32.Nxh7
X145 Kg8
X146
Again the Black King is completely constrained!
33.Nf6+
X147
Insidiously, thanks to tactical and positional minor features, Topalov is clearly taking the advantage.
33...Kf7
X148 34.Ng4!
X149 +/-
Stronger than 34.Bg5; the coordination between White chessmen is magnificent.
34...Kg8
X150 35.Qd2
X151
Threatening: 36.Bg5; moreover, the White Queen controls the crucial e1-square and protects the d5-pawn.
35...Re8
X152 36.Qf4
X153 Qd6
X154 37.Qf2!
X155 +/-
Now Nf6+ is a fatal threat!
37...Qc5
X156 38.Qg3?!
X157
[ Curiously, Topalov doesn' t find the strongest continuation: 38.Qf1!
X158 Qe7
X159 39.Nf6+
X160 Kf7
X161 40.Nxe8+
X162 Kxe8
X163 41.Qf4
X164 Qe1+
X165 42.Kh2
X166 Qe7
X167 43.Qb8+
X168 Kf7
X169 44.Bf4
X170 +-]
38...Qd4?
X171
Clearly, a mistake!
[ 38...Qe7!
X172 39.Qf3=
X173 ]
39.Kh2!
X174
The right answer.
39...Nd8?!
X175 40.Qd6
X176 Ne6
X177 41.Be3
Without remission!
1-0
