Dec-18-07  diabloprancer: Beautiful mate! This was a puzzle in December's Chesslife at move 56, black to play.
May-26-08  Takya Kotov: Nice final position but basically a cheapo win.
Aug-19-12  master of defence: What´s wrong with 7...Bxc3 followed by 8...Nxe4?
Aug-19-12  andrewjsacks: Ridiculous. Looks like a self-mate problem beginning with White's 54th move.

  NM JRousselle: What was the time on the clocks?
Aug-20-12  andrewjsacks: <NM JRousselle> Good Q, but if in time pressure, I would say b7 would be banged out. However, now I am seeing a Black threat of Rb4 and a perpetual check possibility if the White rook leaves the first rank. I therefore am seeing for the first time the logic of h4, but I think some study and analysis of the position are required, and now it's late here...

Did you get to meet WC Anand?

Aug-20-12  andrewjsacks: <LTJ> Unfortunately, no. But I do have the first-person tales and the autograph my sister got those few days before... No total loss at all. Thanks for asking.

It is unusual to see both sets of knight mutually protecting each other, and with one knight on g3 and g6.
