Oct-12-06 Kramnik - Topalov World Championship Match (2006)    Aristarch: Now 29. ... Rxb8 30. Qxb8 Qf7!      Oct-12-06 D Pedzich vs Shirov, 1990    Aristarch: Easy for a Thursday - saw the entire combination in less than half a minute. I guess I was just lucky.      Oct-06-06 Geller vs J Pribyl, 1984    Aristarch: I also went for 25. Be7! as it fitted the theme of the week!      Oct-05-06 K Panczyk vs M Schurade, 1978    Aristarch: Saw it immediately, as the knight fork on e7 seemed rather obvious. However, I missed entirely the near escape by Black playing 21. ... Bd8, as suggested by trumbull0042. The queen's move is magic and of a rare beauty!      Sep-29-06 B Alterman vs Karpov, 1995    Aristarch: Yes, eaglewing, you are of course right! How could I have missed that!      Sep-18-06 Mason vs NN, 1900    Aristarch: <backyard pawn: even chose 23. Ne7 over 23. Nf6, even though they both work equally well, giving a double-check with the Black king having no place to run.> 23. Nf6+? is refuted by gxf6 24. Bxf7+ Nxf7, and Black wins!      Aug-31-06 J Taylor vs Zukertort, 1883    Aristarch: Nice ending! Upon 33. ... Rxf7 follows a mate in three moves: 34. e6! dxe6 (Rf8 35. f7+ Bd4 36. Bxd4 #) 35. Rd8+ Rf8 36. Rxf8 #.      Aug-15-06 Adams vs Miles, 1993    Aristarch: <Bg2: W made error, after 88...Kc2 89.Ka3 Rd3+ 90.Ka4 Rb3 91.a6 Kc3 92.a7 and wins> No, it's still a draw after 88. ... Kc2 89. Ka3 Kc3! (not Rd3+?) 90. Ka4 (Ka2 Kc2) Kc4! 91. a6 Rd1! 92. Ka3 (Ka5 Kc5 93. Ka4 Ra1+ 94. Kb3 Rxa6 95. b8=Q Rb6+ 96. Qxb6 Kxb6) Kc3 93. Ka2 Rd2+! ...      Aug-02-06 Morozevich vs Pelletier, 2006    Aristarch: Did anyone say that Moro is a coward?!      Aug-01-06 A Volokitin vs Morozevich, 2006    Aristarch: Yes, Pelletier won!
