110 Kasparov – Gelfand, Linares 1993
The difference in activity of the opposing forces is enormous. It means that the moment for decisive action is at hand. 19 dxe6 fxe6 20 xe6 a7 20 … c8 21 xf8 xf8 22 xf6 gf 23 xf6+ g7 24 xd6; 20 … b6 21 xf8 xf8 22 xf6 gf 23 xf6+ g7 24 e6. 21 e5! An excellent move! Of course it is based on the concrete calculation of variations, but the essence of it lies in the following: it activates the rook to the maximum, which also decides the outcome of the battle. 21 … dxe5 22 xf8 xf8 23 xf6 gxf6 24 d8 d7 Or 24 … e7 25 g4! (25 c4 g7) g6 (25 … g7 26 c4 f8 27 e6) 26 c4 g7 27 c8 winning. 25 g4 On 25 … g7 there is the conclusive 26 e6. Note the role played by the rook on d8. 1–0 It is necessary to mention that on 18 … d7 (instead of 18 … e8) decides 19 d3 e5 20 h5 d8 21 f5 xf5 22 ef g8 23 f6! xf6 (23 … xf6 24 h3 g8 25 xg7) 24 xf6 xf6 25 h3 bd7 26 a4, etc.
111 Nezhmetdinov – Aronin, Saratov 1953
For the delivery of the decisive blow it is necessary for White to activate his pieces, and for this he needs to open the game, i.e. free lines and diagonals with pawns. 27 d5! e5 28 f4! gxf4 29 xf4 As a result of the operation the dark-squared bishop and rook on e1 are working at full capacity. The e5 and h6 pawns are under threat and the game is decided. 29 … h8 30 xe5! The final blow! This is what is meant by the activity of pieces! 30 … d7 30 … xe5 31 xe5+. 31 e2 h7? Time trouble. 32 xd6 1–0
