 1: GM Salvador Del Rio Angelis

 Name   : Salvador Del Rio Angelis
 Groups : GMs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why do these Grandmasters think they can hang with me in rook endgames?
Because they have some fakey norms? Salvador must have studied rook endings with
Peter Heine Nielsen and Magnus Carlsen.

Aronian-Carlsen

Tal Memorial 2006

73 ... Kg6 only move draws

Magnus had 30 minutes plus year of training with GMs Simon Agdestein

GM Salvador Del Rio Angelis tries to keep up with me in a  rook
endgame and fails miserably after eschewing the lame Colle Opening.
GM Kaidanov told me on the air he loves to play against the Colle.

7. Nbd2 O-O 8. c3 a5 9. O-O Ba6 10. Ne5 Bxd3

Colle pukes hate it when you remove their d3-bishop.

11. Qxd3 d6 12. Nef3 Qc7 13. Ng5 Qd7 14. e4 h6
15. Ngf3 Nc6 16. e5 Nd5 17. Nc4 cxd4 18. exd6 Bxd6
19. Nxd6 Qxd6 20. cxd4 Nxf4

A lot of Colle guys quit when you win a pawn
because you destroyed their perfect structure.

21. Bxf4 Qxf4 22. Rad1 Qe4 23. Qxe4 fxe4 24. Ne5 Nxe5!
25. dxe5 Rxf1+ 26. Kxf1 Rc8 27. Rd2 Rc5!!

Hurry, Lassie, go get Timmy.
Salvador is trapped in the mine shaft.

28. Rd6 Rb5 29. b3 Rxe5 30. Rxb6 Kf7!
31. Ke2 Kf6 32. Ke3 Kf5 33. g3 Rd5 34. b4

It's pitiful to see these GMs pathetically
flounder against my rock solid technique.

34 ... Rd3+!  35. Ke2 axb4! 36. Rxb4 Ra3!

Brutality worthy of Rubenstein.

37. Rb2 g5 38. h3 h5 39. Rb5+ e5! 40. Rb2 h4 41. g4+ Kf4!

Effortless and inevitable King penetration
while my rook nails down the a2 pawn.

42. Kf1 Rxh3!

Letting the baby a4-sea turtle make a mad dash for shore

43. a4 Ra3

Before swooping down and plucking the tiny morsel.

Grandmaster GM Salvador Del Rio Angelis finally yields.
