Oct-01-10 K Solomon vs S Khader, 2010   pastpawn: Oy, this is a pretty sad case of self-destruction (I should say I am nowhere near IM level, but I have experienced this kind of very disheartening loss :o). I saw the position online after Black’s 55th move, and figured it was almost all over: Black was up a pawn, and White was ...      Jul-20-10 J Bryant vs P Zhao, 2010    pastpawn: An interesting endgame: 72 ♘f2+! was a nice idea, since capturing leads to a drawn ♔♗ + wrong color ♖♙ vs ♔ position . Looking at a tablebase, 71 ... e2 would have won Black the game and the tournament, although the position after exchanging ...      Nov-27-09 Jakovenko vs Areshchenko, 2009    pastpawn: In the final position, Black’s position is unpleasant, but is it really time to resign? White does threaten 30. ♘xd5 (when 30 ... exd5 31 ♖xc6 wins a piece, and 30 ... ♖xd5 31 ♗f3 wins the exchange), but maybe something like 29 ... ♔d7 can hold?      Nov-27-09 Svidler vs Nyback, 2009    pastpawn: <PhilFeely> After 40 ... ♕d3, white plays 41 ♕xe4 anyway -- Black can't recapture because of 42 d8=♕/♖+ with mate in 2 .      Nov-26-09 World Cup (2009)    pastpawn: Oop: draw agreed in Nisi-Polgar, apparently.      Nov-18-09 Kramnik vs J Polgar, 2009   pastpawn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5L_s...      Nov-14-09 Tal Memorial (2009)    pastpawn: There are enough possibilities for this R+f+h vs R to turn into a draw, especially after 4-5 hours of play, that I'd play on if I were Leko.      Aug-07-09 C Storey vs J N Sugden, 2009   pastpawn: <MaxxLange>: Still a ways short of the record, though: see http://www.xs4all.nl/~timkr/records...      Jul-27-09 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1990    pastpawn: Er, actually make that 10 ♕f2, since 10 ♗f2 is met by 10 ... ♗h6 11 ♕ somewhere ♗f4      Jul-22-09 J Polgar vs Anand, 1998    pastpawn: <notyetagm: One of the greatest knight fork combinations ever played, especially since it was overlooked by the super-tactician Anand.> Too bad Anand didn't play on for the sake of the spectators ... Can you really say the combination was "played" ;) ? .      Jun-22-09 Nigel Short     May-28-09 B Larsen vs Suttles, 1970     Apr-10-09 Lawrence Day     Dec-10-08 Vasyl Ivanchuk     Dec-09-08 Robert James Fischer     Dec-01-08 S Yohannes vs N Mitkov, 2008     Nov-26-08 Hikaru Nakamura     Aug-29-08 Suttles vs E Bukic, 1969     Aug-28-08 A Luczak vs Fedorowicz, 1979     Aug-26-08 Anand vs P Thipsay, 1987     Aug-18-08 Ivanchuk vs Kamsky, 2008     Aug-12-08 William Hartston     Jul-14-08 Geller vs G Garcia, 1978     Jun-24-08 A Nimzowitsch vs Capablanca, 1927     Jun-18-08 Browne vs Ljubojevic, 1978    Jun-18-08 Van Wely vs Ivanchuk, 2008     Jun-18-08 Shirov vs Svidler, 2008     Jun-17-08 Jakovenko vs Carlsen, 2008     Jun-16-08 Tal vs Miles, 1983     Jun-16-08 Tal vs Miles, 1981     Jun-12-08 Nisipeanu vs Van Wely, 2008     Jun-04-08 I Sokolov vs Kasparov, 1999     May-12-08 John Arthur Fuller     May-12-08 M-Tel Masters (2008)     Apr-24-08 Adams vs Navara, 2008     Apr-23-08 S Andriasyan vs H Dronavalli, 2006     Feb-19-08 Morelia-Linares (2008)     Dec-06-07 World Cup (2007)     Sep-23-07 J Polgar vs L Verat, 1988     Sep-15-07 Esteban Canal     Sep-15-07 Chigorin vs Tarrasch, 1905     Aug-16-07 Viswanathan Anand     Aug-15-07 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1991     Aug-13-07 Carlsen vs O A Stubberud, 2007     Jul-26-07 Tal vs A Cherepkov, 1969     Apr-11-07 O Feuer vs O'Kelly, 1934     Mar-20-07 H Hamdouchi vs M Bezold, 1999     Feb-07-07 Adams vs E Paehtz, 2007     Jan-17-07 R Jamieson vs Unzicker, 1976     Jan-14-07 Topalov vs Van Wely, 2007     Jan-11-07 The World vs A Nickel, 2006     Aug-28-06 Y Visser vs Speelman, 2006     Jul-30-06 Morozevich vs L Bruzon Batista, 2006     Jul-29-06 Biel Int'l Festival (2006)     Jul-28-06 Carlsen vs A Volokitin, 2006     Jul-27-06 L Bruzon Batista vs Carlsen, 2006     Jun-03-06 E Torre vs Petursson, 1985     May-23-06 Ganguly vs A Ismagambetov, 2006     May-03-06 Unzicker vs G Stein, 1948     Feb-03-06 Gligoric vs Hort, 1963     Jan-28-06 Petrosian vs Balashov, 1974     Jan-20-06 Klimov vs Gorbunov, 1989     Dec-03-05 A Sznapik vs Balashov, 1990     Nov-29-05 W Kobese vs Gelfand, 2005     Nov-29-05 A Lein vs Benjamin, 1986     Nov-22-05 C De Villiers vs K Mokry, 1994    Nov-22-05 D Gurevich vs D Gluckman, 1992     Oct-09-05 Topalov vs Morozevich, 2005     May-19-05 Fischer vs E Stepans, 1957     Apr-02-05 Keene vs V Kovacevic, 1973     Apr-02-05 T Helin vs J Kiltti, 1996     Mar-22-05 P A Boll vs F Baumbach, 1994     Mar-22-05 Kasimdzhanov vs Kasparov, 2005     Mar-22-05 Simon Webb     Mar-21-05 F Vallejo Pons vs Anand, 2005     Mar-20-05 Panno vs Eliskases, 1957     Mar-19-05 Duncan vs B Siegheim, 1920     Mar-17-05 Kasparov vs P Nikolic, 1992     Mar-13-05 Garry Kasparov     Mar-12-05 Rustam Kasimdzhanov     Feb-28-05 Linares (2005)     Feb-26-05 K Harandi vs Balashov, 1979     Feb-25-05 F Vallejo Pons vs Kasparov, 2005     Feb-14-05 Z Peng vs A Caoili, 2002     Feb-13-05 O Sarapu vs H Matthai, 1948     Feb-11-05 P Carlsson vs G Burgess, 2002     Feb-11-05 Macieja vs A Volokitin, 2005     Feb-01-05 Korchnoi vs Karpov, 1974     Jan-31-05 Mamedyarov vs I Cheparinov, 2005     Jan-28-05 Short vs E Blank Goncalves, 2001     Jan-22-05 Corus Group A (2005)     Jan-02-05 Polugaevsky vs G Kuzmin, 1974    Dec-30-04 Fischer vs Panno, 1970     Dec-29-04 W Hartston vs Keene, 1970
