Domination by the bishop
3/16/2010 – 18-year-old Niclas Huschenbeth showed great fighting spirit in coming from
number 16 in the starting list to take the German championship title. Karsten Müller has selected and analysed
one of the endgames of the new champion for ChessBase Magazine
Online. This endgame is further proof that the young player from Hamburg
prefers to fight out his games till the very last minute since during the
tournament he turned down six offers of draws from his opponents. Here too he scored the full point with black,
although White had drawing chances. But at the end of the game the domination by the
bishop can be seen clearly.
