Oct-15-21 Bruzon Batista vs Sevian, 2021    GlennOliver: Very strange game from Lazaro Bruzon Batista, who somehow never even got started with meaningful development. But well played Sam Sevian, a faultless game as far as I can judge.      Sep-25-21 Stahlberg vs A Becker, 1944    GlennOliver: Endgame brilliantly fought by both players, and a fitting denouement to the struggle.      Sep-23-21 J I Zilber vs Suetin, 1957    GlennOliver: Ambivalent between - 12. ... Nc6 or 12. ... Nb3 (followed by the Queen exchange) Either one gives Black a very playable game, though by no means an assured win.      Sep-18-21 Vasiukov vs R Gunawan, 1988    GlennOliver: 29. ... Qd6 allows Black to resist longer, but the endgame is still lost.      Sep-15-21 A H Wohl vs So, 2008   GlennOliver: <Brenin> we are on the same wavelength ... : )      Sep-01-21 Vitiugov vs S Dyachkov, 2008    GlennOliver: The choice - 25. Ng7 Rxg7 26. Rxg7 c4 27. Rxg6 hxg6 28. Re1 b5 29. Bf4 a5 30. Qc7# or via 30. Qe7# - is also rather pretty.      Aug-27-21 A Macht vs Alekhine, 1930    GlennOliver: <login:> Very kind, thank you.      Aug-23-21 Dominguez Perez vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2021   GlennOliver: The optimum path to convert to the victory was not obvious - 33. ... Qf7 34. Rxg6+ Bg7 35. Rxg7+ Kxg7 36. Qh6+ Kg8 37. Qh8#      Aug-23-21 P Kranzl vs Blatny, 1991    GlennOliver: <An Englishman> "Just out of curiosity, how many others have been CG members since at least 16 years ago?" I joined in the same year as you, 2004, but haven't been remotely as prolific a kibitzer as you. Primarily I just enjoy playing through games and reading the ...      Aug-11-21 P Duffy vs Steinitz, 1865    GlennOliver: This the sort of game I hate (unjustly). A clearly won endgame, but then try to play it through to a win against silicon, without any hints, and fail repeatedly in embarrassingly foolish ways. Kudos to anyone who found unassisted the 34. ...Rg4+ successful continuation.
