Natalia Andreevna Pogonina – 赵雪 (Zhào Xuě)
Women’s World Chess Championship; Krasnaya Polyana, March 26, 2015
Catalan Opening E06

1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. g3 d5 4. Nf3 Be7 5. Bg2 0-0 6. 0-0 dxc4 7. Qc2 a6 8. a4 Bd7 9. Qxc4 Bc6 10. Bg5 h6 11. Bxf6 Bxf6 12. Nc3 Bxf3 13. Bxf3 c6 14. e3 a5 15. Qb3. For 15. h4 see Markus – Cornette, 17th European Team Chess Championship, Novi Sad 2009. And for 15. b4 axb4 16. Qxb4 Ra7 see Akopian – Ganguly, 8th World Team Chess Championship, 宁波 (Níngbō) 2011. 15. ... Qc7 16. Rac1 Ra6 17. Rfd1 Rd8 18. Bg2 Qb6 19. Qa2 Ra8 20. Ne4 Be7 21. Nd2 Nd7 22. h4 Bb4 23. Ne4 Nf6 24. Nxf6+ gxf6 25. Qc4 Bf8 26. Qe2 Rd7 27. Rc4 Rad8 28. Rdc1 Bg7 29. g4 e5. “Regarding the [...] game, I am completely at a loss. The game was peacefully proceeding to a draw. Then [Natalia Andreevna] overlooked 29. ... е5 – this move looks anti-positional, but White must continue with caution. Intuitively, such positions should clearly be played with Queens on the board, because you always have a chance to give the perpetual regardless on your material losses”, Grandmaster Evgeny Miroshnichenko said. 30. dxe5 Rd2 31. Qf3 fxe5 32. R1c2 Qb3 33. Qe4 Rxc2 34. Rxc2 Rd3 35. Qc4 Qxc4 36. Rxc4 Bf8 37. Rc3 Rd2 38. Rb3 Bb4 39. Be4 Rd1+ 40. Kg2 Ra1 41. Rd3 Rxa4 42. Kf3 Bf8 43. Rb3 Bb4 44. Rd3 Ra2 45. Rd7 b6 46. b3 Be1 47. Bxc6 Rxf2+ 48. Ke4 Rf6 49. Bd5 Bxh4 50. Kxe5 Kg7 51. Ke4 Bg3 52. Bc4 Kg6 53. Rd5 Bd6 54. Rf5? Pogonina is too hasty to change Rooks and seek salvation in an ending with Bishops of opposite colours. She grossly underestimated the strength of the passed h6-Pawn. White should have just shuffled her Rook along the fifth rank. Alternatively, 54. Kd3 was worth considering. “After White exchanged the Rooks on f5, her defensive task became much harder. If there was a draw, it would take a chess composer to find it”, Miroshnichenko said. 54. ... Rxf5 55. gxf5+ Kf6 56. Kd5 Bc5


57. e4?! Probably the final error. Now Black is helpless. She should have played 57. Ke4 heading to f3. 57. ... Kg5 58. Bd3 h5 59. e5 Kf4 60. e6 fxe6+ 61. fxe6 h4 62. Kc6 h3 63. Bc4 h2 64. Bd5 Ke3 65. Kd7 Kf2 66. e7 Bxe7 67. Kxe7 b5 68. Kd6 a4 0 : 1.
