ThunderFire234: <morfishine> In your second line can black not simply play 23... Bxh6? |

Jan-19-15 J Wempe vs Z Peng, 2005 
|
ThunderFire234: <stst> Sure Rdd2 works, but it is only a mate in 10 after Qc8+, so why even risk that kind of thing when you can win immediately? And it's not like Rdd2 is easier to find than Rxf1+? ^^ |

Dec-23-14 Nutcracker Match of the Generations (2014) 
|
ThunderFire234: <fisayo> I never said you said that Fedoseev as a player is underwhelming. I said that you claimed that his progress and talent was underwhelming. |

ThunderFire234: <Cheapo by the Dozen> Even if white doesn't recapture the pawn goes through! :) |

Dec-22-14 D Charochkina vs B Khotenashvili, 2014 
|
ThunderFire234: Wow, this was pretty easy even for a Monday puzzle! But that might be because the first thing that comes to mind on a Monday is a Queen sac. |

Aug-16-14 Kasparov vs Sting, 2000 
|
ThunderFire234: <blacksburg> 39...exd4 wasn't necessarily a mistake because the black knight on the square f4 has no other square to move to. It was simply well planned and played by Kasparov but I do admit Sting was playing extremely casually. |

Jul-27-14 A Galkin vs Kovalenko, 2013 
|
ThunderFire234: <Once> Haha, lovely way to put it. Very creative indeed. I saw Nd4+ it just screamed to be played, but didn't see the move Qg4+ which actually finishes the white lord off. |

Jun-19-14 Ivanchuk vs Morozevich, 1995 
|
ThunderFire234: The Knightt isn't hanging because of the Bishop check and with the Queen on the h4 square that's pretty lethal. |

Jun-09-14 S Paschmann vs Kurschat, 1986 
|
ThunderFire234: <weary willy> That doesn't work since the black queen is on b4 so after Nxc7 Kd8 Qb8 doesn't work due to Qxb8 |
