Sep-14-21 J Frenklakh vs E Schiller, 1994    1g1yy: <gawain: I could see only one candidate move. Fortunately it was the right move.> Actually, I also looked at Nxd5 as well, and it leads to some very interesting carnage, but it doesn't end in #...      Jul-06-21 Kasparov vs A V Kharitonov, 1977    1g1yy: <Diademas: I would be interested in knowing how other people do calculations. Do you just visualize the board, or is the process more abstract?> I think it's just a matter of practice. I'm not very good at it either, but constantly practicing it has helped me to go a few plies ...      Jun-27-21 D Salinnikov vs F Afanasiev, 1999    1g1yy: I've paid several sites annual fees, and days like today make me feel good about my decision not to take on a paid subscription here. I don't know who admins the site, but seriously, there are literally millions of games with great tactics and initiative swings to choose from. Given ...      Jun-16-21 M Tratatovici vs Suba, 1987    1g1yy: Not often you will see where two Queens, two Bishops and two Rooks it is not enough to defend against a Queen a knight and a pawn, and yet here we are.      Jun-13-21 Short vs Ljubojevic, 1991    1g1yy: Since I'm at work and didn't want to take all day to go through the lines you guys have posted up, is 29 g5 not decisive? What am I missing? I would have played that instead of the bishop move to the h file, but I'm certainly a weaker player than Nigel Short.      Jun-11-21 Westerinen vs G Sigurjonsson, 1977    1g1yy: What I think would be nice, is to know the clock readings to know just how long it took the person to find this at the board. Several folks said this was easy, and I admit, the first move is pretty easy. But, the hard part is being the first guy to have this puzzle over the board, and      Jun-08-21 E Hansen vs M Perez, 2012    1g1yy: < dhotts: Hard to believe a 2450+ player blunders his way into a mate in 5?...The series of bad moves ended with 46...Nc4.> I used to wonder that sometimes too, but in a tough time situation, you just never know. Even GMs blunder.      Jun-04-21 S Joksic vs K Commons, 1975    1g1yy: I didn't even consider Kxh6 because I preferred the g pawn keeping the N out of g5. It looked to me if gxh6, the white attack would stall. Once it gets too far down the line I simply can't calculate all the options, and going on my intuition doesn't work on lines that aren't mostly ...      Jun-02-21 Smagin vs N Vlassov, 1995    1g1yy: Looked at this probably as long as any I've tried to solve, and couldn't see it... :( Just wasn't considering the pin... :shrug:      May-28-21 Glek vs Lanka, 1997    1g1yy: I tried the first move but gave up and went looking elsewhere. This was too deep for me.      May-27-21 A Barnett vs Shabalov, 2012     May-26-21 I Ibragimov vs Brodsky, 1991     May-25-21 M Yilmaz vs B Erbis, 2011     May-24-21 Knaak vs Adorjan, 1985     May-23-21 F Olafsson vs Eliskases, 1960     May-20-21 P Girinath vs Ganguly, 2000     May-19-21 R Svane vs A Donchenko, 2015    May-06-21 R Pruijssers vs J Cuenca Jimenez, 2014     May-05-21 S Busygin vs R Burnett, 2014     May-04-21 Zilberman vs Kogan, 2000     Apr-22-21 Winants vs R Pruijssers, 2010     Apr-21-21 Kharlov vs R Paramos, 1993     Apr-20-21 Winants vs Vyzmanavin, 1991     Apr-18-21 S Sjugirov vs I Cheparinov, 2009     Apr-17-21 Khalifman vs Dreev, 1998     Apr-15-21 Van Wely vs Golubev, 1999     Apr-14-21 Gelfand vs Kharlov, 1999     Apr-13-21 Jansa vs Smejkal, 1969     Apr-11-21 V Aveskulov vs M Brooks, 2007     Apr-11-21 T Oyunbaatar vs I Chahrani, 2008     Apr-08-21 K McDonald vs A Bottino, 2003     Apr-07-21 Nyback vs T Hillarp Persson, 2001    Mar-31-21 Portisch vs Eliskases, 1964     Mar-26-21 Kasparian vs Levenfish, 1937     Mar-20-21 A Soltis vs D Gurevich, 1981     Mar-07-21 Svidler vs Topalov, 2004     Feb-24-21 Dlugy vs S Polgar, 1987     Feb-23-21 Shimanov vs A Vovk, 2011     Feb-20-21 A Jerez Perez vs A Romero Holmes, 2001     Feb-19-21 S Ionov vs A Yashtylov, 2000     Feb-17-21 Y Anikaev vs A Khasin, 1990     Feb-10-21 Yudasin vs Kramnik, 1994     Feb-08-21 L Keitlinghaus vs Miles, 1997     Feb-03-21 K Georgiev vs F Vareille, 1998     Feb-03-21 M Keller vs W Bogatzki, 1976    Jan-29-21 Ljubojevic vs A Planinc, 1971     Jan-28-21 L Spassov vs M Marin, 1993     Jan-27-21 A Korobov vs A Mithil, 2018
