During the games of the Biel Chess Festival there is, as mentioned in our round
one report, live commentary – by GM Miso Cebalo in German and GMs
like Danny King, Jan Gustafsson or Jan Smeets in English. After the games are
over the players come to the stage where Cebalo analyses the moves with them
(in English). These are particularly interesting sessions, since the proponents
have everything still fresh in their minds, and are in fact exploring, in real
time, what happened just minutes ago.
In the following we provide you with images of the analysis sessions, a video
of one of them, and most importantly the lines that were discussed, both on
JavaScript replay boards as well as in a PGN file which you can load into Fritz
and analyse yourself, assisted by your favourite chess engine.
