| Googleandchess45: I was a Nirvana fan back in the day, never thought it would be associated with chess though. Nice pun, great game. |

Aug-06-08 Englisch vs Blackburne, 1883
| |
| Googleandchess45: Instead of 18. Be4?, White can hold on a little longer with 18.Bxf7+. I'm suprised White missed this. Nor is this mentioned in Blackburne's notes. |

| |
| Googleandchess45: Draw, he might very well lose if he stumbles here. Black already has a Kingside pawn advantage. |

Jul-07-08 I Khamrakulova vs E Ubiennykh, 2001

Jul-02-08 Short vs I Rogers, 1992
| |
| Googleandchess45: I got the whole solution. Although I didn't bother looking further then Bxh5, figuring it was a won endgame. Suprising since this solution wasn't nessecarily a straight-forward mate. |

Jun-29-08 J Piket vs Smirin, 1993
| |
| Googleandchess45: Interesting, and yes this was rather easy. Usually I don't like to say this since we are given the luxury of knowing there is a tactical stroke, but there should of been better defense from a 2640 rated player. Considering the strong placement of both the knight and rook, ... |

Jun-28-08 P Popovic vs M Lazic, 1993
| |
| Googleandchess45: Excuse my earlier comment, it doesn't lead to an endgame it just gives black the 2 rooks vs bishop and rook. With no compensation at all for white. |
