2nd Indore GM Open 2024 R7: Goutham outplays Hesham in the endgame

by Shahid Ahmed - 14/01/2024

Deepan Chakkravarthy drew with Alexei Fedorov in the seventh round of 2nd Indore GM Open 2024. IM Arash Tahbaz (IRI) blundered terribly in a rook endgame which should have been an easy draw against GM Boris Savchenko. Thus, Savchenko joined Fedorov in the lead 6/7. FM Goutham Krishna H scored a fine victory against GM Hesham Abdelrahman (EGY). The teenager showed great technique in the endgame. FM Kashish Manoj Jain got the better of the Sri Lanka no.1 - IM L M S T De Silva. Goutham and Kashish are the only two non-IM/GMs among the eight pack pursuers at 5.5/7 each. The remaining six are - Deepan, IM Ratnakaran K, GM Iniyan Pa, IM Neelash Saha, IM Ameya Audi and IM Shahil Dey. Round 8 starts today at 2 p.m. IST. Photo: Satyam Vishwakarma

Neelash - Aswath

Position after 28.h3

IM Neelash Saha (2446) would have been in deep trouble if his opponent IM Aswath S (2369) spotted the winning continuation. Instead, he played 28...Nxe3 29.Bxe3 dxe3 30.Bb3 and White went on to win the game after a series of inaccuracies by Black. Find out what did Black miss in the above position.

IM Neelash Saha's resiliency paid off against IM Aswath S

IM P Shyam Nikhil - WGM Nandhidhaa P V: 0.5-0.5

GM Hesham Abdelrahman (EGY, 2424) had a good opportunity to equalize 26.Bxb7 Rb8 27.Be4 Nxa3 28.Bxf5 gxf5 29.bxa3 Rxb3 and White can put up a good fight compared to the game. 26.Ra4 Rxf4 27.Rd1 Re8 28.Kg1 Re3 29.Rd2 d3 30.Kf2 g5 31.h3 h5 32.Ra5 Re5 33.Rd5 Rxd5 34.cxd5 g4 35.hxg4 hxg4 and things just spiraled out of control for White.
