Canadian Open 2013 Rd4-Part 2

Official Site-PGNs Rd4 
Part 2 Games 9-16

The Highlights
My favorites were games 10(GM Moradiabadi) and 14(GM Perelsteyn) which both featured some slowed paced but purposeful maneuvering.


Game 9-Rozentalis,E(2601) - Yam,A(2367)
GM Rozentalis finished the game with a nice Nxf7! sacrifice for the attack.

Game 10-Miller,E(2234) - Moradiabadi,E(2557) 
GM Moradiabadi slowly improved his position and then pushed the passed c-pawn for a nice positional victory.

Game 14-De Kerpel,S(2157) - Perelsteyn,E(2571) 
GM Perelsteyn built up his position with an impressive maneuvering display before unleashing a little combination.

Game 15-Cheng,Bindi (2516) - Zhou,Qiyu (2160) 
IM Cheng got a nice dark square bind and duly converted an extra pawn in the R-R ending.
