Jun-05-12 M Pestalozzi vs D Duhm, 1900

| Jesspatrick: I've seen this combination on a tactics training problem set. |

Jan-27-12 M Fette vs R Storm, 1991
| |
| Jesspatrick: As a practical matter, you only have to see 15.Qe3 Qe7 16.Bh4 and it's enough to make the decision to enter this line. Now as far as the game goes, I'd like to know why White didn't play 17.Qd8+ |

Oct-26-11 Maroczy vs Vidmar, 1922
| |
| Jesspatrick: I recognized this instantly because I played a similar combination in the same opening (different line) in 1979! |

Aug-07-11 Fedorowicz vs M Zlotnikov, 2002
| |
| Jesspatrick: White's e Pawn was just a little too hot. |

May-12-11 Denker vs H Avram, 1940
| |
| Jesspatrick: As a former practitioner of the Max Lange Attack, the position was almost instantly familiar. Unfortunately, the theory in this opening favors Black with best play. |

Mar-06-11 Panno vs Savon, 1973
| |
| Jesspatrick: Given that this is before move 40, and that Panno's position isn't exactly lost, maybe it's a time forfeit. Otherwise, maybe he just resigned because he was disgusted with blowing such a nice edge. |

Oct-15-10 L Christiansen vs Gheorghiu, 1977
| |
| Jesspatrick: This is a fantastic game and is a great example of how White should play an isolani position. |

Oct-14-10 P Wolff vs Dreev, 1993
| |
| Jesspatrick: I would love to hear Patrick Wolff's account of what went wrong in this game. I presume that he just botched it in time pressure. |

Sep-10-10 M Ginsburg vs R Costigan, 1977
| |
| Jesspatrick: Costigan just doesn't get pushed around like this very often. |

Aug-30-10 V Nevostrujev vs Ljubojevic, 1992
| |
| Jesspatrick: Hoo boy! The mighty Ljubo missed 6...Bxd4 winning a piece. Surely someone somewhere has seen this and remarked on it. |
