Andreikin, Dmitry – Kramnik, Vladimir

2683 2010 · White wins (resignation, time or agreement)

Andreikin (2683) against Kramnik (2791), 2010, an Alekhine Defense reached after 1.Nc3 Nf6 2.e4 e5 3.f4. Black comes out of the opening in fine shape, but 13...Qg5 hands most of it back, the evaluation moving from -2.4 to -0.8. Queens and rooks come off around e6, and the rook endgame is where the game is truly decided: 41...f5 throws away the balance, from 0.0 to +5.1, and 42...f4 makes it worse, from +3.9 to +5.4. Andreikin pushes his b- and c-pawns and wins on move 54. Accuracy: 78% White, 83% Black — proof that the endgame, not the opening, settled this one.
