Oct-06-09 S Polgar vs A Rabczewski, 1989    MenisfromVenis: Qf5 wins a R. More of a Monday puzzle.      Oct-05-09 J Gast vs E Bhend, 1987    MenisfromVenis: It's Monday, so it's a Q sac! Qxh2!      Sep-22-09 M Illescas vs Adams, 1992    MenisfromVenis: Ng5 with the threat of Qh7# wins the R.      Sep-20-09 P Imbaud vs Strumilo, 1922    MenisfromVenis: <gofer: 14 ... Qxg5 Black is a piece up for the two lost pawns and a horrible king position, but I cannot see a quick kill for white... ...anyone see something I have missed???> 15 c3+ Ke3 16 0-0 Qh4 (to stop the mate) 17 Rf3+ Ke2 18 Rd2+ Ke1 19 Rf1#      Mar-23-09 L De Veauce vs Keene, 1963    MenisfromVenis: I couldn't believe this was a 2300 rated player, but having read Mr Keene comments, it makes some sense. Still, a fool's mate in a real game!!!      Mar-06-09 Tal vs Timman, 1972    MenisfromVenis: As soon as I noticed it was Tal to move, I thought: "it's some extravagant sac, I bet it's RxN". Then forgot about it, looked for some other moves, couldn't find any, gave up and looked at the solution...RxN, darn!!!!!!!!!!!!      Mar-05-09 Steinitz vs Schlechter, 1898    MenisfromVenis: Didn't see it, sigh!      Mar-04-09 Fischer vs R Shocron, 1959    MenisfromVenis: Bd7 saves White R. Took me some time to see....      Feb-26-09 Tarrasch vs D Baird, 1898    MenisfromVenis: Well, Bd2 aiming for h6 stands out, but I would not got the continuation.      Feb-25-09 Mason vs Teichmann, 1894    MenisfromVenis: More like a Friday, Saturday puzzle. I could see the potential of the N fork but not how to use it... darn. Qd3 is a great move.      Feb-22-09 Vyzmanavin vs Ehlvest, 1984     Feb-20-09 G Marco vs Pillsbury, 1896     Feb-19-09 Hracek vs Kramnik, 2002     Feb-16-09 E Bakhmatov vs E Ghaem Maghami, 2005     Feb-04-09 Klovans vs O Kalinin, 1986     Jan-07-09 A Stukopin vs B Hasenohr, 2008     Dec-29-08 H Karner vs Mass, 1971     Dec-23-08 E Cekro vs L Patriarca, 2008     Dec-22-08 S Maus vs Tal, 1990     Dec-21-08 H Hecht vs H Schaufelberger, 1973     Oct-28-08 P Lyrberg vs R Irzhanov, 1992     Oct-27-08 Lasker / Maroczy vs NN, 1900     Oct-22-08 Morant vs A de Feuquieres, 1680     Oct-15-08 R G Wade vs R F Boxall, 1953     Apr-20-08 M Wahls vs A Yusupov, 1991     Nov-28-07 W Von Holzhausen vs Tarrasch, 1912     Nov-18-07 Spassky vs A Beliavsky, 1988     Nov-05-07 Steinitz vs J Minckwitz, 1870     Oct-23-07 von Popiel vs G Marco, 1902     Aug-08-07 Dreev vs D Berkovich, 1992     Aug-06-07 E Schallopp vs R Hein, 1868     Aug-04-07 J Klinger vs W Arencibia Rodriguez, 1986     Jul-24-07 Smyslov vs Pachman, 1947     Jul-19-07 M Klinova vs D Spence, 2006     Jul-09-07 Fischer vs W Hook, 1970     Jul-04-07 Spielmann vs H Gebhard, 1926     Jul-03-07 J Xie vs K Arakhamia-Grant, 1997     Jul-02-07 S Loyd vs F Perrin, 1856     Jun-30-07 Browne vs A Wojtkiewicz, 2004     Jun-27-07 Karpov vs M Stojanovic, 2007     Jun-26-07 A Arulaid vs F Duz-Khotimirsky, 1949     Jun-25-07 R Slade vs D V Hooper, 1947     Jun-12-07 Hort vs V Zheliandinov, 1967     Jun-11-07 Movsesian vs U Boensch, 1999     Jun-07-07 Koneru vs C Waters, 1999     Dec-22-06 R Richmond vs G Burgess, 2001     Dec-19-06 Timman vs W Hug, 1974     Dec-16-06 N Bakulin vs Bronstein, 1965     Dec-15-06 A Cherepkov vs Bronstein, 1961     Dec-14-06 Barcza vs Bronstein, 1949     Dec-13-06 Bronstein vs NN, 1950
