Oct-12-14 A Voyna vs S Kramer, 2000 
|
Longbrow: <al wazir> I believe you are correct on "where's the win?" with 27...Rgc3. I also played many variations of 27...Rc8-c3 in the same line and found Black with the advantage, often keeping the bishop pair. |

Mar-17-09 E Walther vs Tal, 1966 
|
Longbrow: White castles Queenside, Black immediately puts a horrible relentless building pressure on the White King side. White never has the ability to execute his potential for a Backrow Mate. Ironically, under the pressure White attempts to trade Queens twice and is refused, eventually ... |

Mar-14-09 Zhao Xue vs Shen Yang, 2009 
|
Longbrow: <UnsoundHero: Black has no reasonable way to develop his kingside, and is strategically lost.>
I am inclined to agree.
I recognized the significance of b5, that an attack on it should be made with the ♘ and not the ♗ and solved this puzzle only on the ... |

Sep-20-08 A David vs G Kallai, 1996 
|
Longbrow: I have read < patzer2> and <chrisowen>’s excellent posts below and acknowledge Chapman vs I Rogers, 1999 ,as well as, Carlsen vs Bareev, 2005 . This is the Caro-Kann Defense French variation, right?
I don’t quite follow 5. g4.
By 7. h4 ,white practically ... |

Sep-05-08 Bisguier vs Larsen, 1965 
|
Longbrow: Larsen beat with his own attacking style and locale. <euripides: I suppose the omission of Nc3 accelerates the kingside attack.>
In this case, I would certainly say it does-good observation. |

Sep-01-08 Y Troinov vs L Popov, 1962 
|
Longbrow: <Vollmer> That is a key point to this puzzle. All roads lead to f7 after 12…♖e8
Also to note after 12… ♖e8 is the Black King is now sole defender for f7, g7, and h7. |

--Whi Te Shark>

Aug-16-08 Sunye Neto vs Kasparov, 1981 
|
Longbrow: One word: Relentless.
The eventual refutation of White's repeated attempts to find an effective home for his minor pieces. Black's insidiously strong Knight post at e4, which in seeming desperation White had to remove at all costs. An excellent display of piece activity, ... |
