Sep-06-05 Chigorin vs B Yankovich, 1899
| |
| FearsomePawn: <.00001 nano-seconds> Wow! You have again accomplished something that surpasses the laws of physics (light--and therefore impulses travelling through your nerves--can't go faster than the speed of light, that is 30 cm/nanosecond). </sarcasm> As for the chess ... |

Aug-13-05 Lenderman vs Nepomniachtchi, 2005
| |
| FearsomePawn: 53. ... Kf7
54. Qf2+ (Ke7 Qf8+ and Rd6#; Kg6 Qf5+ and Rh8#)
Earlier, it seems that Black just missed the queen check after 27. ...Nxc2 Overall, well played by Lenderman. |

Aug-12-05 C Zuidema vs P N Lee, 1964
| |
| FearsomePawn: White thought he could be clever by playing his intermezzo to desperado his bishop and end up a pawn up... he missed the simple Kg7! keeping the extra piece (Q-moves Rxf7, etc) The simple 14. Qxh6 leaves black in an interesting position as trading bishops on h6 usually means he |

Aug-08-05 P Nikolic vs Timoshenko, 1990
| |
| FearsomePawn: <The cat is worth 6 points since it moves either as a Bishop or a Knight, or a combination of thhe 2.. 2 steps diagonally followed by another move in the other diagonal direction> That would be worth more than 6 points IMO. Anything is worth more than the sum of its ... |

Jun-19-05 Queen's Gambit Accepted (D20)
| |
| FearsomePawn: <aw1988: Alekhine's Defense 2...Bh3.> I seriously looked this up in Opening Explorer to see if an inebriated Alekhine played this. Maybe I can confuse my opponents with this novelty... maybe |

Jun-11-05 Parma vs M Damjanovic, 1960
| |
| FearsomePawn: <mynameisrandy> Me too. I rarely get Saturday puzzles (I'm only in the 1500's uscf) but this seemed pretty easy and logical. First, the knight prevents the king from escaping to the f file (I recogninzed this right away). So I just figured that Black must blast away the ... |
