Methodist has kibitzed 10 times to chessgames   [less...]

May-14-14 Yusupov vs Salov, 1988   Methodist: The craziest game of USR-ch50. Salov misses win with 38... Kf7?? (38... Kh7! 39. Bg7 Rh6!).      May-14-14 V Malaniuk vs A Sokolov, 1988   Methodist: A fine example of how a pair of knights can be stronger than the pair of bishops in an open position!      May-10-14 Romanishin vs Gulko, 1977   Methodist: Nice counterplay by Gulko.      May-07-14 Unzicker vs Fischer, 1966    Methodist: Good work by Eyal there, today when looking at this game I found out that Fischer missed 36... Ng3! 37. Kg1 (during the game both GM's saw this idea but didn't see the follow-up which is...) Nf1 38. Bf1 h3! (this is the move they didn't see) 39. g3 Bg3! and black will have four ...      Apr-23-14 Azmaiparashvili vs Gavrikov, 1980   Methodist: The sac idea was suggested by Itkis, based on Huebner's analysis (which, as the young soviet players found out, was not flawless and what was proved in this game).      Apr-20-14 Korchnoi vs Ljubojevic, 1987   Methodist: The black BSB was so unhappy with living on a5 square that he committed the suicide (37... Be5).      Apr-20-14 A Sokolov vs Yusupov, 1987   Methodist: Very interesting and sharp endgame.      Apr-18-14 N Rashkovsky vs Bareev, 1986    Methodist: Update: Rashkovsky offered a draw after 20. f5. If Bareev won he would have become USSR champion and GM just in the age of 19, so he decided to go fo glory but failed.      Apr-07-14 Beliavsky vs Tseshkovsky, 1986   Methodist: Qd1-g1-h2! Great Petrosian-like queen maneuver.
