Daniel most likely stopped analysing when he saw his 13...Qxd4 also hit the a1 Rook.
It's pity he was forced to drop his a8 Rook with a check.

First Castle, then create.

White is very good wee player, I recall analysing a game with him a few years back.

T.Malhotra - D.Thomas Brit Ch, 2012 u-16's.

Bxh3 15. Rxh3 Qxd4 16. Qc6+ Nd7 17. Qxa8+ Bd8 18. Rd1 {Black resigned a few moves later}[/pgn]

That board 7 loss. I know a player who brought this exact same order off 4 times.
I myself have won a league game with it. A Golden Oldie.

Kai on live boards this morning. (Thanks Lara)

[Andrew McHarg]

Kai lost

Shame too as it looked like he had the better of the game at a glance.

[David G Congalton]

I'm sure the loss was only a temporary blip with black and the "Ness Express" will come steaming back with a double round of wins tomorrow, which will keep him on track for one of the top positions.
