  An Englishman: Good Evening: Another one for all fans of checkmated Queens. Given Tolush's fondness for saying, "Forward Kazimirovich!" during games, it becomes amusing that he won this one moving sideways (25...Ra8).

  al wazir: <An Englishman: ... he won this one moving sideways (25...Ra8).> Actually, white lost it by playing 25. Bxc5.
Mar-20-20  Honey Blend: Maybe the swindle 26. ♗a6 is worth trying; i.e., 26. ... ♖xa6 runs into 27. ♖d8+ and 26. ... ♕xa6 leads to something similar: 27. ♕xa6 ♖xa6 28. ♖d8+.
Mar-20-20  Autoreparaturwerkbau: What <Honey Blend> said.
Mar-20-20  Brenin: After 26 Ba6 Qb8 17 Kh1 White is uncomfortable, but seems to survive.

  OhioChessFan: 26. Ba6 looks pretty good.
Mar-21-20  RandomVisitor: After 15...Qe7 white has a good position
