Sep-07-21 B Lalic vs E Kengis, 1997 
| |
| aginis: I had the more naive 36. h3+ Kxh3 (Qxh3 Rg6+ Kh5 Qh5#; Kh5 Qh4#) 37. Qg5 +- however black can make white work for the win with the defensive resource 37...Be6 38.Rxe6 Rh8 39.Qf4 Qg7 40.c3 and black can not effectively prevent the mating net Qf3-Re1-Rh1 for example 40...a4 41.Qf3 Qh6 ... |

Jun-24-09 Ivanchuk vs Carlsen, 2009
| |
| aginis: <once> i was just wondering why Carlsen didn't play Bxc3 over Nxc3 even if he missed the better 38...Ra5 |

May-02-09 Z Varga vs Z Gyimesi, 2005
| |
| aginis: < chessgames.com: Although the initial move is fairly easily to guess, we decided to make this a Saturday Puzzle because 26...Qd5+! is an only-move. To play into 26...Ra8+? 27.Kb2!, or 26...Be6+? 27.d5!, or anything else, would be throwing the win away.>
i think black still ... |

Feb-29-08 A Colovic vs W Arencibia Rodriguez, 2004
| |
| aginis: I liked 32.Qc5+ any 33.exd6+ and white has a very strong attack. most lines i checked lead to mate or huge loss of material. |

Dec-23-07 Spassky vs A Beliavsky, 1988
| |
| aginis: ok so maybe i'm missing something but
25.Qh6 looks very strong to me.
white is threatening Nxg6, Rd3-Nf5 and Nf3-Ng5-Qxh7 or some combination thereof. how does black defend all three? |

Dec-21-07 Gipslis vs A Sygulski, 1987
| |
| aginis: I didn't see the line played but when i looked at the board i saw the B sack as immediately sound because
22.Bxh6 gxh6?? 23.Qd2 (perhaps not as good as Nf6+ followed by Nh4 but easier to spot and analyze)
Now if black protects the N then 24.Qxh6 followed by 25.Nf6 is an easy win for |

Jun-17-07 T Rakic vs I Nemet, 1966
| |
aginis: i think 23...Rxb2 wins as well (although slowly)
23...Rxb2 24.axb3 (Bh3 Be6 Bxe6 Rxe6  ) Bc5+ 25.Rxc5 Re1+ 26.Bf1 bxc5 and white must lose a piece to free up his position. |

Jun-06-07 Tiviakov vs V Arbakov, 1989
| |
| aginis: i think what fezzik means is
64.Qe3 Qg4! (nice find marcwordsmith btw) 65.Qe7+ Kg8 66.Qe8+ Kh7 68.Qxf7+ Kh6 69.Qf8+ Kh7 70.Qe7+ Kh6 71.f7 there is no perpetual because white just moves his king to take the 'a' pawn and then marches up the board with his pawns to queen. |
