Alexander Beliavsky:

Beating the Graandmaster in
20 moves


Crunching the database of my games I
discovered an astonishing fact.It is a
relatively big persentage of winning games
against grandmasters in just 20 moves.I am
introducing the collection of 25 winning
games against grandmasters.The longest
games has no more then 25 moves,the
majority of it even less.All games were
played in full time control tournaments ,so
the time trouble has nothing to do with a
poor performance. Moreover in many
instances my opponents did not overlooked a
one move punch. Rather it was a chain of
smaller mistakes or a wrong plan choice …

Beliavsky : Gelfand,

1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nc3 e5 4.de5 d4 5.Ne4

Better is 6...Nd7 7.e6 fe6 8.g3 Qh5 9.Ngf3
e5 10.Bg2 Ngf6, with a comfortable position
for black.
7.Ngf3 Nf5 8.g3 Ne3
Spectacular rather then strong, because black
trade d4 pawn for f2 and waste a time.
8..Nd7 was better.

Smyslov : Beliavsky,

1.d4 f5 2.c4 Nf6 3.Nc3 g6 4.Bg5 Bg7 5.Qd2
White believe black square bishops trade
gives him an edge. However black proved it
is take too much time and gives black a good
counterplay on the Q-side.
5...c5!? 6.dc5

Better choice was 5. e3 or 5.d5.

White continue with his plan dangerously
postponing development of his pieces.

White probably overlooked black's next
move.Though black position already is very
comfortable:

15...Bd5 16.Rd5 d6
Now white king becoming an easy target for
3 black pieces while white bishop and rook
do not take any part in the game.
17.Kb1 b3 18.ab3 Rb8 19.Qg6 Kd7 20.Rf5
Qe1 21.Kc2 Nb3
White cannot protect the king against Qd2 or
Na1 threats with a mate in few moves. 0:1.

9.Ne2 Bc5 10.Nb3 Bb6 11.Bf4 Ngf6 12.f3
White idea is to put pressure on d5 pawn by
means 13.0–0–0 and 14.Nc3. Black move
0–0 seems natural, however it is not address
the threat. Better was 12..0–0–0 13.0–0–0
Rhe8 14.Nc3 Nc5 15.Nc5 Bc5 16.Bg5 Be3
17.Be3 Re3 18.Rd4 Kc7 19.Rhd1 Kc6.

12...g5! 13.Bg3?!
13.Be5 0–0 14.Bg3 was preferable for white,

It is a mistake. Both players missed
opportunity for white. Better was 16..Bb4
and after 17.Rh1 continue with Ba3. Instead
of getting winning endgame white
overlooked mate in one. Very rare blunder

6.Nd5 Ne7 7.Bc4 Nd5 8.Bd5 Be7 9.Nf3 0–0
10.0–0 Na6 11.Bf4
11.Be3 Nc7 12.Bc4 Be6 13.Qc2 Bc4
14.Rfd1 Qc8 15.Qc4 b6, with a slightly
better position for white.
11...Nc7 12.Re1 Nd5 13.ed5 Bd6 14.Bd6
Qd6 15.Ne5 b5
The idea is to prevent Nc4. It is does not
work because of 16.a4. Better was 16…b6
with a good chances to equalize.
15...b6 16.Nc4 Qf6 17.Qd2 Bd7 18.Ne5 Qd6
19.Nd7 Qd7 20.d6 Rad8 21.Rad1 Rfe8
22.Re7 Qe7 23.de7 Rd2 24.Rd2 f6 25.Rd7
Kf7 26.Ra7 Re7 27.Re7 Ke7 28.Kf1=.
16.a4 Bb7
Again it is a small inaccuracy. Better was
17…ba4.

17.ab5 Qd5 18.Qd5 Bd5 19.Nd7 Rfc8
After small inaccuracies came a big one.
Better was 19...Rfe8 20.Re8 Re8 21.Nc5 g6
22.Na4 Rb8 23.Nc3 Bc4 24.Ra5. Still black
is suffering.
20.b6 ab6
It is loosing a piece. After 20...Bc6 21.Ne5
a6 22.Rad1 Rab8 23.b7 Bb7 24.Nd7 Ra8
25.Nb6 white is winning an exchange.
21.Nb6 1:0.

1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 c5 4.d5 ed5 5.cd5 d6
6.Nc3 g6 7.e4 Bg7 8.Be2 0–0 9.0–0 Re8
10.Nd2 a6
On the move 21 it will be clear black had to
play 10..Nd7, because inclusion 10..a6 11.a4
happend to be to white favor.
11.a4 Nbd7 12.f4 c4 13.Kh1 Nc5 14.e5 de5
15.fe5 Re5 16.Nc4 Re8 17.Bg5 h6 18.Bh4
Nce4 19.d6 g5
Much better was 19..Nc3 20.bc 21..Be6.
20.Be1 Be6 21.Ne4 Ne4

Now we can see the subtle difference
between position of black pawn on a7 and
a6. Should black did not included pawn
move 10…a6 the position was to black
advantage.
22.Ba5 Bc4
22...Qd7 23.Bc7± Qc6 24.Rc1 Qc5 25.Qe1
Qd4 26.Nb6 Rad8 27.Rd1 Qc5 28.b4 Qe5

29.Bd8 Rd8 30.Bc4 with a big advantage for
white.
23.Bd8+– Be2 24.d7
It is makes difference.
24...Re6 25.Qe2
Black resigned because after 25..Ng3 26.hg3
Re2 27. Ba5 and white gaining a rook. 1:0.

I have introduced 25 short wins against
grandmasters. So what is the secret of so
quick wins? There is not secrets at all. Just
try to discover the best move in position
starting from the move number 1. You play
against human and humans ability to keep
fighting is limited. At some point her/he
became exhausted. And blunders is coming.
Well, it is doubleedged weapon. Sometimes
you are getting exhausted first. But today,
when I am turning my 60 I am going to show
the brighter side of the story. 1:0.
