This Week's ChessVideos Show: Cheparinov Busts the Blumenfeld
It's too much to say that Ivan Cheparinov refuted the Blumenfeld Gambit in his convincing defeat of Ivan Salgado Lopez in the recently completed Aeroflot Open, but he probably did put an end to one of Black's standard ideas. Before this game, the Black plan of ...Rh8-g8-g4xe4 might have seemed viable; now, after Cheparinov's most convincing play, it looks so absurdly time-consuming that it's hard to believe anyone took the idea seriously. This is to the Bulgarian's credit, as was his efficient and energetic attack on poor Salgado's king.
It's thus not only a game with theoretical importance, but an attractive one as well. You can watch it with my commentary, here: as always, it's free of charge (free registration required), and will be available on-demand for the next month or so.
