Aug-10-08 | | Operation Mindcrime: Great game by Denker! 20....♖xd5! and 26...♗xh4 completely wipe out White's king-side and force the win of the queen for a rook - and at the end of it all, there's also a passed ♙ on the d-file. Passive play by Szabo, though! This game was used as an illustrative game by Gerald Abrahams in his book "Teach Yourself Chess". |

 | | al wazir: What was wrong with the simple 31...gxf3 ? After 32. exf3 Bg5 33. Qc3/Qe2 (33. Qe1 Bxf3) Nf4 34. gxf4 Bxf3, white is dead. |
|
Aug-10-08 | | RandomVisitor: 29.Bb8 might hold for white.
24...h6! gives black an advantage. |
|
Aug-10-08 | | RandomVisitor: 27.Rc4! is a move only a computer could find. |

Aug-10-08 | | Manic: <al wazir> Isn't that basically what happened in the game, only with ...gxf3 and ...Bg5 swapped around in the move order? |

 | | al wazir: <Manic: Isn't that basically what happened in the game> Son of a gun, you're right! I got so wrapped up in analyzing "my" line that I failed to notice that. |
|
Aug-10-08 | | Chessmensch: <Operation Mindcrime> I think you mean a queen for a bishop. Black's other rook was long-since lost on move 21. |

Aug-10-08 | | mmmsplay10: is Laszlo, the father of the polgar sisters, or is it a different laszlo? probably a different one with polgar as a last name, but i was just wondering. |

Aug-10-08 | | whiteshark: This brilliant game and <[NOTYETAnNOTATED]>? |
|
Aug-10-08 | | myschkin: . . .
I like 1...Nf6!
Black will be able to <control> the center, almost like a pawn move would ... Shredder agrees, too. Adios

Aug-10-08 | | Jim Bartle: My "theory of everything" for chess: if white has to play Be3 before moving his e-pawn, he's in trouble. |
|
Aug-10-08 | | whiteshark: <1...Nf6<!>> A move of <[ELEMENTAL]> delicacy, defending ♙f7 against a rook attack on the <[NOTYETOPEN]> f-file. |

|
Aug-11-08 | | kevin86: White's tripled pawns are like bowling pins-they were set up to be knocked down. |
|
Aug-11-08 | | Jim Bartle: Nice observation. Snagged a queen as well. |

|
Oct-17-17 | | BwanaVa: This is good, but his roll of Fine in the 1944 US Championship has to be his best... |

Oct-15-18 | | Everett: A very attractive attacking game, starting with the exchange sac to free up the long diagonal of the LSB for Black. |
