Judit Polgar Crushes the Rossolimo Attack in 27 Moves

Featured is an instructive chess game between Toms Kantans and Judit Polgár from the 2011 European Rapid Championship. Arising from the Rossolimo Attack, Polgar’s central pawn structure goes unchallenged early, allowing her to firmly establish a pawn on e5. That single pawn plays a key role not only in overwhelming Kantans in the center, but also in generating superior piece activity, ultimately forcing his resignation after just 27 moves. #JuditPolgar Image of Judit Polgar by Lennart Ootes lennartootes.com 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.
