Dec-22-05		ray keene: no its g c lund brett is a much stronger player

Apr-18-06		TenFeetTall: 29 Qf8+!!

Apr-18-06		Shajmaty: Nice game by Ray, but I prefer the lines with 13. Qc2 or even an earlier deviation with 11. Ne4. Was 18. Qc2 a novelty?

Nov-18-06		thegoodanarchist: 27...Qh8 is no salvation, due to Black's lagging development. White simply wins material with a fork: 28 Rh7+ Qxh7 29 Rxh7+ Kxh7 30 Qe7+ ( ) and Black loses a rook due to the Bishop being at home.

Feb-15-07		fm avari viraf: This line of giving the e pawn looks risky. Only the calibre that of Keene can handle such a position. White's penetration on the seventh rank with Rooks spell disaster as Black cannot defend even by playing 28...Qd8 29.Qe5 threatening mate on Qg7 so to avoid mate the only move is 29...Qg8 and 30.Qf6 again threatening mate on g5 where Black is defenseless. But Keene's Qf8+ is sheer beauty. Again the theme of deflection to put into practice.

Feb-08-22		Brenin: Nice play by the 14-year-old Ray Keene.

Feb-08-22		Immortal Gambit: Since Mr. Lund has no other game in the database, we can only hope he didn't get fooled again.

Feb-08-22		Immortal Gambit: On second thought that's the wrong song.

Feb-08-22		An Englishman: Good Evening: <Immortal Gambit>, ah, but you did refer to the correct album, unless I'm out of my brain on the 5:15.

Feb-08-22		nalinw: How about "The Kid is Alright" - or "Ray Can See for Miles and Miles"

Feb-08-22		igiene: " Won't get mated again"

Feb-08-22		Amarande: The end, with Black's King at bay on h6 facing mate from behind via seventh rank action, instantly evoked the memory of Janowski vs O Chajes, 1916

Feb-08-22		igiene: I'll tip my hat to the new continuation Take a bow for the new combination Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my board and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get mated again

Feb-08-22		goodevans: <Presumably this is Brett Lund> <no its g c lund> Who?

Feb-08-22		HeMateMe: Excellent pun, fine game by CGs contributor Keene. There doesn't seem to be much play in the position after 14 moves but whites 15th move creates an opening.

Feb-08-22		MissScarlett: As suspected, the use of waste in the sense of 'to kill' dates only to the 1960s....American TV has a lot to answer for. <The Germanic word also existed in Old English as westan "to lay waste, ravage." Spanish gastar, Italian guastare also are from Germanic. Meaning "to lose strength or health; pine; weaken" is attested from c. 1300; the sense of "squander, spend or consume uselessly" is first recorded mid-14c.; meaning "to kill" is from 1964. Waste not, want not attested from 1778.> https://www.etymonline.com/word/waste

Feb-08-22		HeMateMe: The Who, teenage wasteland. The Mods rebel against the British class structure.

Feb-08-22		Sally Simpson: :) Just last week I had that checkmate pattern on RHP. I'm Black and although three pawns up I was expecting to have to give them back and possibly allow blind swine. click for larger view My first though was Rb2 with f4-f3 ideas but then Rxe6 and Rf6+ and a perpetual at the very least. Then I saw the Rb1 mating idea I had been passive for so long snaffling pawns I hardly expected a mate out of the blue. 33...Rb1 34.Rxg5 Rdd1 0-1 click for larger view Black has a couple of checks Rc8+ then Rc7+ but once the King reaches f6 it is over. (A nice coincidence and I had to make a post amongst all these Who comments....I was 'Happy Jack' - which at one time I considered as an online Nik.)

Feb-08-22		HeMateMe: Who would 'Stingy Bingy' be? Steinitz?

Feb-08-22		belgradegambit: Excellent pun. Pairs nicely with this game Velimirovic vs J Sofrevski, 1965

Feb-08-22		Ironmanth: Solid finish!! Thanks, chessgames. Y'all have a great week: stay safe and play awesome chess.

Feb-08-22		whiteshark: ‘The time has come,’ the Walrus said, ‘To talk of many things: Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax — Of cabbages — and kings — And why the sea is boiling hot — And whether pigs have wings …

Feb-08-22		ray keene: Thanks for publishing my game just after my 74th birthday

Feb-09-22		An Englishman: Good Evening: Happy Birthday, Mr. Keene! Still remember your excellent 60s book on the Flank Openings. Inspired me to use the Reti-Smyslov and it worked well.

"Hoc est vasta" (this is waste land) turns up again and again in the Domesday Book, referring to areas that were ravaged by William the Conqueror as he quelled rebellions in the north of England around 1069.
