| Avarus: Great pun and a wonderful game that has somehow eluded my attention before |

Mar-19-09 Carlsen vs Aronian, 2009
| |
| Avarus: Amazing to be able to pull a comeback from the position after 36.Ba7. The sacking some 3 pawns to gain the initiave in the endgame!! It seems as though both black minor pieces are better than the white rook in the end. Magnificent. |

Feb-03-09 M R Kaldegg vs G Zeissl, 1903
| |
| Avarus: <gus inn>: "<Once> If pawng7 (e.g) takes f8 = Q+ (black king on g8)and another Queen on , let us say ,g1 - both Queens check.
Otherwise , you cannot doublecheck with doublebishops,rooks and horses , as far as I can figure out." More nit picking coming since it seems to be |

Jan-18-09 K Bischoff vs J Nogueiras, 1998
| |
| Avarus: 12.g4 This is the kind of french defense position I try to get into! It makes me think that 10..e4 was an error. 14.h4 A move for attack. I would have tried to play it like Petrosian with 14.Nd1!? with the idea to answer 14..b5 15.c5 Bc7 16.a3! closing the queenside and white has all |

Oct-08-08 L Schulman vs Petrosian, 1967
| |
| Avarus: 23...Bd4! is a fine move indeed. I have to add that 22...Bb2! was done in order to gain a tempo with 26...d3 and as <arsen387> pointed out, to achieve the fork after 27.Rd2? |

Sep-10-08 Grand Slam Chess Final (2008)

| Avarus: It's still winning for black but hardly simple. |

Sep-07-08 G Vescovi vs R Szuhanek, 1994
| |
| Avarus: Sort of position where it is easy to consider 21.Ndf5 but that 21.Ngf5 is better was beyond my calculation skills. Even further, to see that 24...Bd5 is scary but fails as <MAJ> pointed out - way beyond me. |

Aug-27-08 Tal vs Velimirovic, 1979
| |
| Avarus: Those rooks get into the game out of nowhere! Compare the positions after 18...Qxe4 and 27.Qh3 - was black having a coffee or what? (no offense to Vel) |
