Oct-19-06 | | ahmadov: <alfilbueno: <ahmadov> If 28 Nf3 Rb2 also gets the White queen trapped.> Yes, but then 29.Qxb2 Nxb2 30. Rxb2, which is better than what happened in the game. Queen is exchanged with one rook and knight. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | eblunt: <Ahmadov> But after 28 Nf3, what about 28 .... Bxd4+ 29 Nxd4 Qb6 ! 30 Qc3 Rfd8 winning the pinned Knight. black forgets the Queen trap and wins a Knight instead |
|
Oct-19-06 | | ahmadov: <eblunt> I have to check that, but it is still better than having a knight against a Queen. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | eblunt: <ahmadov> True. I was just pointing out a better line for black against your Nf3 defence, which would have White resigning in 4 or 5 moves anyway. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | ahmadov: <eblunt> I understand you and fully agree with you. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | ahmadov: By the way, I also understand that it is easier to offer moves now than making the most correct moves while playing ;). |
|
Oct-19-06 | | rookattack: Cant 28.Nf3 be refuted by 28...Rb2 29.Qxb2 Rxb2 30.Rxb2 Rfd8 and white loses an extra bishop? |
|
Oct-19-06 | | rookattack: i am an amateur in chess. Can someone please explain me the significance of 5.Bb4+. Doesnt it just help white to develop a piece. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | Tariqov: I am not to smart in this opening but i think it is to divert the white bishop to a less useful square(i.e Bd2 instead of Bb2) |
|
Oct-19-06 | | eblunt: <rook attack> .... 30 Rxb2 Rfd8 doesn't win the bishop , White can play 31 Rb1 and 32 Bxc5. Blacks d8 Rook still has to protect the back row. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | greensfield: Missed it. Looked at 27...c3 and 27...Rfd8.
<DWINS><nice mate you found with 31...Rxd2 > |

 | | gawain: Got this one. The first time I have ever solved one of Chessgames' queen-trap puzzles. Fell into it after deciding that Black could not possibly cause trouble with any move other than the check with the bishop. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | zb2cr: Missed the puzzle today, oops. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | scottnewhouse: I saw 27...c3 28. Nb3 Qxa4 but Bc5 wins more forcefully. |
|
Oct-19-06
 | | gawain: I meant ... Bc5 of course, not a bishop "check" but an x-ray of the White King through the White bishop. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | Parriotblue: I thought 27...Bxc5, 28.Bxc5 Qxc5+ and 29.... Rb2. I think this line is much better, isn't? |
|
Oct-19-06 | | YouRang: I thought 27...c5 looked okay (I think it wins a pawn), but I figured it wasn't THE solution. |

 | | kevin86: I had no clue,must be getting cose to the end of the week.:) |
|
Oct-19-06 | | bleedingpack: <Parriotblue> 27...Bc5 28.Bxc5 Qxc5+ 29. Kh1(f1) Rb2 and White can play 30.Qc3 since Black's queen is no longer quarding c3. |
|
Oct-19-06 | | The17thPawn: Saw 27..Bc5 and 28...Rb2 but I had white taking with Qxb2. never looked at Qxc4. I guess half a solution is better than none. |

|
Oct-19-06 | | Oregon104: This quiz is dumb. How is it supposed to be solved? |
|
Oct-19-06 | | Parriotblue: <bleedingpack> You really show me the way. Thanks |
