Judit Polgar's CLOSE CALL in the Sicilian Taimanov

Featured is a sharp chess game between Andres Guerrero Vargas and Judit Polgar from the 2014 Tromso Olympiad. Out of a Sicilian Taimanov with 6. f4, Polgar chooses to play an opposite sides castles game. Play is sharp throughout with many ups and downs and each pursuing play towards the enemy king. Andres Guerrero Vargas missed an aesthetic shot on move 33 that would have almost certainly won, but it was Polgar who would have the last laugh. #JuditPolgar #SicilianTaimanov I'm a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
