Modou Seck - Ndiaga Samb (23-04-2011)
There are few 4x4 positions that win. This position is no
exception. However, after 49.37-3227x3850.33x42..., the
opposition is not in White's favour. 50....16-2151.44-3921-2752.42-37?...Johan Wiering (1999) also made the same
mistake against Alexander Bulatov. The draw should come from 52.42-3852....30-35!53.29-24...Tougher than 53.39-3413-19!54.29-2319x2855.34-2928-33!56.29x3835-40!and Black wins easily. 53....35-4054.24-2040-45Wiering no longer allowed his opponent to prove himself from
here. Seck continued for a while longer. 55.37-32...55.20-1545-50!56.39-3450-28-+55....27x3856.39-3338x2957.20-1529-33Now White gives up. After the next move, Black will
play 45-50 and will inevitably capture the White king.
