Mar-29-20 | | Walter Glattke: I think 18.Nxd5 exd5 19.e6! breaks black. If 18.Ng4, black should play N6xe5. |
|
Mar-29-20 | | newzild: Got the first three moves immediately - but only because it's a well-known sacrificial idea in the Kings Indian Attack. |
|
Mar-29-20 | | Walter Glattke: 22.-Nxe5 23.Bxe5+ Bf6 24.Bxf6+ Qxf6 25.Re8+ Rxe8 26.fxe8Q+ Qf8 27.Qxf8# |
|
Mar-29-20 | | stacase: The first two moves were rather easy to see, but then 20.exf7+ or 20.exd7 I would have taken the Knight, but I wondered if taking the Pawn and saying check was in the offing. I didn't expect 20...Kh8 But now I see that 20...Kxf7 leads to 21.Qe6+ which is rather devastating for Black. I shoulda coulda woulda but didn't see it. |
|
Mar-29-20 | | saturn2: It is not hard to see
18. Nxd5 exd5 19. e6 is advantagous
Black Queen moves give back the knight and white has a better position. 19...Nde5 20. exf7+ Kxf7 and white gets back a piece with one pawn advantage snd the second on d5 will fall soon. |
|
Mar-29-20 | | Walter Glattke: The better puzzle is 32.-Rd6 33.Qc5, if 34.Qxf8+?? then 34.-Qxf8 35.Re8 Rxf7, or 33.-Qc5 34.Rc6 Qe7 35.Re6 Qxe8? 36.fxe8Q, but 35.Re6 Qc5 what is the end? Tell me. |
|
Mar-29-20 | | 7he5haman: What's White's response after 22...Nf6, intending Qf8 and Rd8? If 23. Bg5, then 23...Bb5 guards against a future Qe8+. Don't get me wrong, White looks much better after 22...Nf6; I'm just wondering if there's an immediate knockout for White. |
|
Mar-29-20 | | agb2002: I know this game. The alternative 18... Nd4 loses to 19.Nxe7+ Kf8 20.Nxd4 cxd4 21.Nxg6+ fxg6 22.Bxa8 winning decisive material. |
|
Mar-29-20 | | morfishine: The attack was impressive while the desperate attempt to hold the position was equally impressive |
|

 | | profK: If 33...Qc5 34.d4 is pretty direct too!! |
|
Mar-29-20 | | trnbg: Happy birthday, Wolfgang Uhlmann! |
|
Mar-29-20 | | faulty: extremely cynical to post this loss on the anniversary day of a great player |

 | | takchess: A good Sunday for me. Saw the first 3 moves and saw where King x pawn would open a world of pain for Black. |

|
Mar-29-20 | | spazzky: <Albanius: In the final position, 33 .. Qc5 falls to
34 Rc6 >
Even simpler is 33 ..Qc5 34 d4 Rxf7 35 Qxf7 Nxe6 dxc5 |
|

 | | chrisowen: Durao no? |
|
Mar-29-20 | | KokeFischer: If GM Uhlmann reads CG homepage then he may think that the editor hates him. This is a strange way to celebrate Uhlmann's birthday with a nasty gift: bitter loss. I prefer with a nice win against Bobby:
Fischer vs Uhlmann, 1960 Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag, Wolfgang! |
|
Mar-31-20 | | newzild: <spazzky: <Albanius: In the final position, 33 .. Qc5 falls to 34 Rc6
Even simpler is 33 ..Qc5 34 d4 Rxf7 35 Qxf7 Nxe6 dxc5>> I actually find <Albanius>' 34. Rc6 to be simpler. Each to their own. |
|
Mar-31-20 | | trnbg: <KokeFischer: If GM Uhlmann reads CG homepage then he may think that the editor hates him.> We shouldn't be too harsh on CG. I suppose they were simply not aware of Wolfgang's birthday. |

Nikitin: "Evgeny Vasiokov was a true Chigorinist [...] and Wolfgang Uhlmann was brought up on games of Chigorin's great German comtemporary, Siegbert Tarrasch." |
