Oct-21-04 | | Calculoso: therefore it would be mate a lot sooner... the queen must be given up to avoid an immediate mate |
|
Oct-21-04 | | Dudley: 25...Bh4 doesn't change anything- 26.b7+! Kd7 27.e6#, so black must play 26.b7+ Qxb7 27.BxQ+ KxB 28. QxB |
|
Oct-21-04 | | Marco65: Maybe best defence was 24.Bxa5 <Bh4> 25.Nxb6+ Qxb6 26.Bxb6 Bxe1 27.Rxe1 (maybe even better than 27.Bxd8 Bc3) Rd7 28.e6 Rdh7 29.Bxc5 |
|
Oct-21-04 | | who: <Dudley> 25...Bh4 26.b7+ Kd7 27.e6+ Ke7 28.Qxh4 Nf6 etc. |
|
Oct-21-04 | | who: In general 24...Rh6 seems the smallest of all evils. |
|
Oct-21-04 | | Catfriend: Definitely enters my trapped queens collection:) |
|
Oct-21-04 | | sourcerer: exellent!! what more can i say it's mate or bust if there's difference.congrats leko wakabvakure. that's my native for consistency |
|
Oct-21-04 | | fgh: 24. Nxb6+ Qxb6 25. Bxa5 Qa7 26. Bxd8 Bxd8 27. a5 and after 28. b6 the white pawns should decide the game. What does Crafty thinks? |

 | | beenthere240: I'm not sure what 24....Rh6 accomplishes after 25. e6. Black's position is just collapsing. |
|
Oct-21-04 | | sandyobrien: i'm on a school computer without java, can someone post the solution for todays problem? i only looked at it for a few seconds but 24. Nxa5 bxa5 25. Bxa5 seems too simple. |
|
Oct-21-04 | | kevin86: Black can save the queen only on the penalty of 25...♕d7 26 b7+ ♔c7 27 ♕xa5# black's queen closes escape square d7 |
|
Oct-21-04 | | DanielBryant: I, too, initially saw 24. Nxa5 bxa5 25. Bxa5 with the possibility of a queenside pawn storm. |
|
Oct-21-04
 | | Annie K.: <sandyobrien> 24. Bxa5 bxa5 25. b6. |
|
Oct-21-04 | | sandyobrien: thanks annie, i saw the possibility of that a bit after i posted. very interesting puzzle. it's amazing that leko could find that at 10! it's a wonder why he didn't win the wcc |
|
Oct-21-04 | | Larsenb3: Great sac! You can clearly see why Leko is one of the stronger players of today and is playing the World Championship Match. |
|
Oct-21-04 | | White Blood Cells: 23. a5?? is the mistake. It is a Great Sacrifice too! Nice puzzle, <chessgames.com>! |
|
Oct-23-04 | | dr gogusetti n rao: This puzzle has not been changed since Thursday. Some weekend for Chessgames.com! GVSNRao. |
|
Oct-23-04 | | clocked: What are you talking about? |
|
Oct-24-04 | | dr gogusetti n rao: Do go on to the next problem, please!

|
Oct-24-04 | | clocked: Insanity to be sure |
|
Oct-24-04 | | Spassky69: Lesson of the day for Dr. Gog....don't smoke crack. |
|
Oct-27-04 | | dr gogusetti n rao: Spectacular sac.
But, sir, we haven't moved forward with another puzzle after 21st. Why? Dr Gogusetti N Rao |
|
Oct-28-04 | | sneaky pete: <dr gogusetti n rao> We have, but your
browser seems to have a problem. Use the "refresh" button in the workbar at the top of the screen. |

 | | technical draw: Jeckel would probably give Leko a better game. |
|
Dec-15-22 | | Seyealebiosu1985: Black I think still has a win chance
