May-01-07 Steinitz vs G Neumann, 1867 
|
MathijsJanssen: Dear Lord, because of the strange pawn placing I completely missed the fact that white did not have to recapture with his queen, but could do so with his pawn. After 32/34...Qxh4 33/35.Qxh4 Nf3+ black wins easily. But you're right of course, sneaky pete. |

|
MathijsJanssen: Easy, but pretty. I like 12...Kd7 13.Bb5# even better. A very "diagonal" mate. |

Apr-05-07 I Aloni vs K Kirby, 1958
|
MathijsJanssen: Interesting breaktrough. After 56...Bf8 comes 57.h7 Bg7 58.c7 Kd7 59.e6+.
But why not 53...Bxh4? |

Mar-17-07 S Zagrebelny vs N McDonald, 2000 
|
MathijsJanssen: <Dr.Lecter: I was thinking 42...Rxc5 when if 43.Rxc5 Bf3+ 44.Kxf3 a8=Q+ and possibly win, but I guess this is more pretty. >
And what colour would this queen be?

Mar-04-07 S Mariotti vs Gligoric, 1971 
|
MathijsJanssen: <Fisheremon:<RandomVisitor: <Sydro>After 34...Qxd5 35.Nxe7 Qf7 36.Qd3+ Kh8 37.Bxg7+ Kxg7 38.Qxd7 Black will have a rough time.> Still it's lost for Black as Black's King is not in safe and 3 pawns of King-side decide the game.>
I think that's what RV meant. |

Jan-16-07 Velimirovic vs Szabo, 1976 
|
MathijsJanssen: I really like the mate with 41.Ne3# ( or 41.Nf4#), if white doesn't take the rook. |

MathijsJanssen: Bears092: I don't see how black should have developed any further. |

Jan-28-06 T van Scheltinga vs Gruenfeld, 1936 
|
