Jul-12-21 Mingyu Wang vs Arni Thoroddsen, 2015
| |
| Knighthawkmiller: 34... Qxe6 seals the deal. This is a game between 1600 rated players ... at the Reykjavik Open (2015). Oh! to be able to play there! |

| Knighthawkmiller: 21.g5 wins the equivalent of a piece for white. Blitz games often miss these chess realities. |

Feb-28-21 Bronstein vs Kotov, 1950
| |
| Knighthawkmiller: 14... Qg2 makes sense. +0.40 (20 ply) 15.cxd5 exd5 16.Qd4 Qg6 17.Bxa6 bxa6 18.Qc5 Bf5 19.Re1+ Be4 20.Nd2 Kd7 21.f3 Qd6 22.Qxd6+ |

Feb-10-21 G Kacheishvili vs Carlsen, 2001
| |
| Knighthawkmiller: Interesting ending in that if black advances the R pawn 63...h3 and white takes the pawn with check 64.Rxf+ is a draw. (but 64.Rg8+ wins).
=0.00 64...Kg2 65.Rf2+ Kg3 66.Rf5 Kg2 67.Rg5+ Kf1 68.Rh5 Kg2 69.Ke2 h2 70.Kd1 h1=Q+ 71.Rxh1 Kxh1 |
