From IM to GM - Turning Point | My Best Games

Not very often it's possible to pinpoint the moment when a player starts to play at a GM level but I believe, for me this happened in the end of year 2011, around the time when I played this game. My opponent was Vladimir Kirpichnikov, a FIDE Master from Latvia. ➡️ Replay the game with engine analysis - https://www.chess.com/analysis/game/pgn/4jMzM222NS ✨ Check out my new Patreon page - https://www.patreon.com/GMNeiksans ✨ You can support me by upgrading to Chess.com Premium membership (I get a small commission from it) - https://go.chess.com/arturs ✨ Leningrad Dutch: Simplified has been released on March 29! https://www.chessable.com/leningrad-dutch-simplified/course/225232/ ✨ My King's Indian Attack course - https://www.chessable.com/100-repertoires-kings-indian-attack/course/154650/ ✨ My Sicilian Kan course - https://www.chessable.com/lifetime-repertoires-kan-sicilian/course/100043/. ✨ My Reversed Sicilian course - https://www.chessable.com/lifetime-repertoires-reversed-sicilian-/course/72271/ ✨ Donation also works! https://streamlabs.com/gmneiksans/tip --------------------------------- 🌌 Social Media Links: ✨ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gmneiksans ✨ Discord Community: https://discord.gg/e24pKUuH4N ✨ GM Neiksans Chess Club: https://www.chess.com/club/gm-neiksans-chess-club ✨ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GMNeiksans ✨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gmneiksans/ ✨ Twitter: https://twitter.com/GMNeiksans 📧 E-mail for a business inquiry: [email protected]
