Nov-19-23 V Plat vs P Michalik, 2016   manselton: 10...0-0 Black must have enough for the pawn.      Jul-22-23 V Georgiev vs I Salgado Lopez, 2014    manselton: That is some positional game! I still don't understand where White went wrong.      Nov-04-22 Gligoric vs E Bakonyi, 1948    manselton: 5.Bd2! Boris Avrukh      Oct-08-22 J Curdo vs J D Thornton, 1957   manselton: Black was 12 years old. Wonder if John remembers this game?      Nov-21-21 R Jumabayev vs O Bortnyk, 2017   manselton: R+2N mate against a Q. Superb!      Aug-16-21 Gulko vs M Dvoretzky, 1978   manselton: A rather famous pawn-sac and positional win Boris Gulko and typical of his style.      Apr-10-21 Korchnoi vs Kasparov, 1988   manselton: A classic example of Black's oldest defensive plan against 7.Bc4. Notice how Black did not exchange pawns until _after Rb1. After this the plan of ...Na5, ...cxd4 and ...b6 leaves the WQR on a poor file. Essentially Black has gained a tempo. If grabs the pawn with 10.dxc5?! then ...      Mar-27-20 I Rausis vs K Arkell, 2011    manselton: 1.e4 c6 2.c4 d5 3.cxd5 cxd5 4.exd5 Nf6 5.Nc3 Nxd5 6.Nf3 Nxc3 7.bxc3 g6 8.Bb5+ Nd7 9.O-O Bg7 10.Re1 O-O 11.Ba3 Re8 12.Ng5 h6 13.Nxf7 Kxf7 14.Bc4+ e6 15.Rxe6 Rxe6 16.Bxe6+ Kxe6 17.Qg4+ Kf6 18.Qf4+ Ke6 19.Qd6+ Kf7 20.Qd5+ Kf6 21.Re1 Bf8 22.Qg8 Kg5 23.h4+ Kh5 24.Qd5+ g5 25.Qf7+ Kxh4 ...      Feb-21-20 J Fabian vs Polugaevsky, 1959    manselton: How come this is a win for Black? Surely White is winning easily.      Dec-03-19 Rubinstein vs J Mieses, 1909   manselton: Position after the analysis line 52...e2! [DIAGRAM] And now 53.Re3 Kg4 54.f6 Kg5 55.b3 (not 55.f7? Rxf7 with a check on e7.) Black must be careful not to play 55...Rxf6? 56.Rxe2 which is a tablebase loss but rather 55...Kg6! which draws.      Sep-30-19 V Popov vs M Mchedlishvili, 2002     Sep-30-19 V Popov vs S Atalik, 2008    Jul-09-19 Korneev vs A Wojtkiewicz, 1997     Jun-02-19 Averbakh vs Botvinnik, 1955    May-30-19 R Michell vs Tartakower, 1925    Apr-15-19 W Spoelman vs V Gurevich, 2017    Mar-31-19 Ribli vs J Pinter, 1982    Mar-30-19 Polugaevsky vs Mecking, 1971    Mar-28-19 Szabo vs V Korensky, 1973    Mar-28-19 Karpov vs Hort, 1973     Mar-26-19 Flohr vs Capablanca, 1935     Mar-24-19 S Belavenets vs V Rauzer, 1937     Mar-24-19 Boleslavsky vs Averbakh, 1953    Mar-16-19 Kramnik vs Karjakin, 2017     Mar-13-19 Balashov vs Szabo, 1973    Mar-10-19 I Stohl vs Plachetka, 1987     Mar-04-19 Taimanov vs Aronin, 1949     Mar-04-19 G Timoscenko vs S Makarichev, 1979    Mar-02-19 Ivkov vs R Hartoch, 1969     Feb-25-19 S Kindermann vs Speelman, 1981    Feb-23-19 Stein vs Averbakh, 1970    Feb-23-19 V Lerch vs H Niedermayr, 1968     Feb-23-19 Chigorin vs Schlechter, 1902     Feb-22-19 Marshall vs Lasker, 1907     Feb-19-19 Suetin vs Gufeld, 1969    Feb-16-19 Schlechter vs Lasker, 1910     Feb-14-19 W Von Holzhausen vs A Nimzowitsch, 1926    Feb-14-19 V Faibisovich vs Westerinen, 1969    Feb-14-19 Benko vs Parma, 1964    Feb-14-19 Karpov vs Parma, 1970     Feb-10-19 Alekhine vs Vidmar, 1936     Jan-29-19 A Kunte vs K Georgiev, 2000    Dec-28-18 J Mestel vs J Sunye Neto, 1981    Dec-14-18 S Solovjov vs Chandler, 1992    Dec-08-18 Kholmov vs A Kapengut, 1977    Dec-07-18 M Madeira de Ley vs M Eidelman, 1952    Dec-05-18 V Stefanishin vs D Gurevich, 1991    Dec-02-18 Botvinnik vs C Kottnauer, 1947    Nov-18-18 Flohr vs Bondarevsky, 1939     Nov-18-18 Reti vs P Romanovsky, 1925    Nov-17-18 Rubinstein vs Alekhine, 1911     Nov-09-18 C Ward vs J Anderson, 2013     Oct-25-18 B Podlesnik vs P Bevan, 2018     Oct-07-18 T Hughes vs C Holt, 2012    Oct-02-18 R Chavez Monterrosa vs V S Gujrathi, 2018     Oct-01-18 E Llobell Cortell vs Suba, 2005     Sep-28-18 H Weenink vs Kostic, 1927     Sep-24-18 D Anton Guijarro vs Gelfand, 2017    Sep-23-18 Stellwagen vs Dominguez Perez, 2004    Sep-23-18 B Fitzpatrick vs Z Almasi, 2003    Sep-22-18 C Poulsen vs Najdorf, 1939    Jul-28-18 Kotov vs Bronstein, 1972     Jun-29-18 S Williams vs J Rowson, 2005    Jun-16-18 A Driza vs A Stiri, 2008    Jun-09-18 S Gordon vs A Hill, 2018     Jun-08-18 Kupchik vs Capablanca, 1931     Apr-14-18 Ivanchuk vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2015    Apr-13-18 A Timofeev vs D Borisovsky, 2017    Jan-25-18 A Santos vs P Silva, 1984    Jan-16-18 S Haugen vs Carlsen, 2000    Dec-31-17 Ed.
