Dec-05-18 A Beliavsky vs R Roskar, 2008   Geronimo: Such elegance! This is a lovely mate.      Jul-17-18 A Rotstein vs Y Gonzalez Vidal, 2005    Geronimo: Forced moves. The natural instinct to avoid losing too much material may kick in, but black is cooked by the rook coordination. Keep hitting h7 indeed.      Apr-05-18 Y Afek vs Psakhis, 1990    Geronimo: Beautiful puzzle! I found the first two moves but didn’t foresee the counterplay and the extent of black’s weak back rank. Such a harmonious position though, with all black’s pieces working perfectly together.      Mar-21-18 Karjakin vs D Frolyanov, 2013    Geronimo: Fun little puzzle, but a bit easy for a Wednesday.      Mar-09-18 Fischer vs S Schweber, 1970    Geronimo: There are times when I’ve been particularly rigorous about tactical studies (by my standard, that is, not by the Russian School’s, eg) and I’m pushing up my strength, and I get a slight glimpse of what it would be like to be, say 100 or 200 points stronger, or even (I ...      Feb-26-18 K Polak vs K Bulski, 2008    Geronimo: What do people think about 41.Kb1? Is this the « quiet move » that allows for the fatal combination? Fun Monday puzzle in any case.      Feb-08-18 Csom vs A Yusupov, 1982    Geronimo: I could see as far as 43...Qf6 on the text moves, but only count a half-point for this elegant puzzle, as I didn’t even consider the alternative line 41. Rxd4 Rxd6 42. Qxd6 exd4. Also, 44. e7 is a beautiful move, and better than recapturing the rook on f7, which I probably would ...      Jan-29-18 Ivanchuk vs N A Legky, 1987    Geronimo: Not only a fun Monday, but a beautiful game. Ivanchuk delivers a masterclass in positioning and using his knight against black’s pawns, then exploits his opponent’s weakened defenses to force a Q v. RR endgame and an elegant finish.      Jan-17-18 E Blomqvist vs E Romanov, 2016    Geronimo: Like <Mayankk> said, this one gets trickier the further you look into covering all the forcing moves. Intuitive, yes, but I got it with a guess without doing the hard calculations that would inspire confidence in a real life setting. Nice puzzle, CG.      Nov-25-17 Kramnik vs L Bruzon Batista, 2006    Geronimo: A bit easy for a Saturday, but I still didn't get it. I'll give myself a quarter-point though for spotting the first move and important a2-g8 diagonal step. I also spotted how e6 would be the key to this, but I wouldn't have got all the way through it over the board.      May-13-17 M Massironi vs F Stips, 2007     Apr-08-17 G Kuzmin vs A Groszpeter, 1990
