EIDorado: patterns: checkmate on last rank and pin |

Feb-06-20 Seirawan vs J Nogueiras, 1987 
|
EIDorado: It helps if you know two pawns on 6th(3rd) line are stronger than a rook. |

Jan-30-20 M Gurevich vs G Andruet, 1988 
|
EIDorado: The motifs around the king are obvious. The order is important though. |

Jan-17-20 Adams vs Epishin, 1992 
|
EIDorado: Today was a trap. After 19. ... Rxf3 the engine gives +0.22. Instead it suggests the obvious 19. ... Nd4, with almost a pawn advantage for black. |

Dec-20-19 Panno vs Larsen, 1971 
|
EIDorado: Calculating up to the point where white takes on e6 is easy. The problem is to asses the resulting position, since the black king has a few options after the knight fork. |

Dec-17-19 Bronstein vs Shamkovich, 1961 
|
EIDorado: Scan the position and the only pattern left is checkmate on the last line. |

Dec-13-19 J Klinger vs W Arencibia Rodriguez, 1986 
|
EIDorado: h3 is kind of forced. Then you have to compute the resulting variations. |

Dec-10-19 K Treybal vs J Engel, 1932 
|
EIDorado: A fork in two moves, Nh6-Qe3. |

Dec-09-19 W Napier vs Teichmann, 1904 
|
EIDorado: Black already has a wining position. Beside the obvious checkmate Qg2, we can win with: Ne2, Nh4, Qd3. So, in order to win white must give a check without losing a piece in the same move(Qf2 and Qh2 are losing). |
