Dec-07-20 Ivanchuk vs P Wolff, 1993    Morten: Probable sequence as played in the Netflix series: 37. Ne6 Ra4 38. b3 Rxe4 39. Nxd6 Bxe6 40. dxe6 cxd6 41. e7 d5 42. Bc5 Qe8 43. Qf3 Qc6 44. b4 Qe8 45. Qf5+ Kh8 46. Qxf6 gxf6 47. Rxf6 Qh5 48. Rf8+ Kg7 49. e8=Q Re2+ 50. Kf1 Qxh3+ 51. Kxe2 Qg2+ 52. Rf2 Qe4+ 53. Kd2      Nov-07-20 A Petrosian vs V Akopian, 1988   Morten: Probable sequence as played in the Netflix series: 38.-, h5 (sealed move) 39.gxh5, Kh8 40.hxg6, Rxh4 41. Rh1, Rch7 42 Rg1, R7h5 43. Kf1, Kg7 44. Bd7, Rd4 45. Qe3, Re1+ 46. Re1, Bd4 white resigns      Jul-20-20 C Mann vs L'Ami, 2006    Morten: Great pun - well done. Cruel ending by L'Ami      Jul-10-20 Capablanca vs N Zubarev, 1925    Morten: Nice game and nice cold, logic end. Slightly off-topic, but when I saw the pun I was hoping this was a game I had read a story about but never seen: In a game played with live pieces, Capablanca (who is said to have had an eye for that sort of thing) had noticed that the young girl      Apr-15-20 A Kelderman vs A Knoppers, 1935    Morten: Nice finish after black tries 27.-Rg6: 28.Qf8+, Rxf8 29.fxg7+ and mate by Rxf8 next. White's moves can be reversed for a less flashy effect.      Mar-23-20 Vasiukov vs Bronstein, 1961    Morten: 63.-, Ka7. 64. Qd4+ and either 64.-, b6. 65. Qxb6++ or 64.-, Kxb8. 65. Qd8+ transposing to the game? But white kept the mouse alive to play with it for too long.      Jan-25-20 Caruana vs Duda, 2020    Morten: I guess if 43.exf6 black plays 43. -,Rxd4 with the idea 44. Kxd4, Bf6+ skewering the king      Jan-21-20 Firouzja vs Carlsen, 2020    Morten: White’s position starts to look drafty after moves 32 and 34. Memories of Petrosian - Larsen at Santa Monica 66.      Jun-12-19 Y Foughali vs C Yoo, 2016    Morten: 21.-, Qxe5 seemed a good option for black….      Dec-13-17 Stockfish vs AlphaZero, 2017    Morten: For once Stockfish did not get a bad bishop hemmed in by its own pawns. Oh, wait....
