Aug-01-21 E Rompteau vs K E Engel, 1965    ajax333221: I guess all of that couldn't be possible one move earlier right? 21. b4 really limits his own Queen.      Apr-10-21 D V Prasad vs K Murugan, 1992    ajax333221: I spent like 5 minutes looking into every possible move and found nothing until I finally see the potential for the Rook sac. However my initial idea was: 18. Rxf7 Kxf7 19. Bd8 Attacking the Queen with the Bishop in hopes that freeing the g5 square with a tempo for the f3 Knight ...      Oct-18-20 Dolmatov vs Polugaevsky, 1988    ajax333221: It is so easy to understand how every following move is going to be, but it was very hard to have the creativity and vision for the first nail in the coffin.      Jan-10-15 Bogoljubov vs Spielmann, 1919    ajax333221: [DIAGRAM] 26. Qc8+ Rd8 27. Rxe6+ fxe6 28. Qxe6+ Qe7 29. Qxe7# 1-0 this is one move longer, but more straightforward in my opinion.      Jan-09-15 Jakovenko vs Carlsen, 2007    ajax333221: 40...Qf1 was missed, I guess once you look into a way of simplifying the position into a quick win you stop looking.      May-07-14 J Pachow vs P Enders, 1981    ajax333221: haven't seen the movie nor read the books.      Jan-23-14 Ivkov vs Lengyel, 1964    ajax333221: it makes us think around 4+ moves in the future, but once you look at the correct line everything is clear: RxB, NxR, B pin N, (now there are only 2 choices to protect the knight) a)Rc8? Nd6 fork QR b)Qc7 The Queen is overloaded, both protecting g7 and c5, there is little ...      Jan-02-14 I Abonyi vs G Lovas, 1915    ajax333221: I thought 15.Nf6+ was as good, but then the castle defense appears!: 15.Nf6+ gxf6 16.Qxf6 O-O      Dec-20-13 A Mathiassen vs S Sorensen, 1862   ajax333221: interesting, 29.Qf4 or 29.Qd4 is followed by 29...Bb4+ 30.Qxb4 Rxb4 However if we go back and see why 28...h5 was played (instead of directly moving the bishop to b4) is that there is a sneaky Rd8#, so if you go 28...Bb4+? 29.Qxb4! (blacks can't capture the queen because that ...      Dec-10-13 P Littlewood vs D Norwood, 1985    ajax333221: but we were (or are) close      Sep-04-13 A Sokolov vs Salov, 1983     Aug-19-13 J Hybl vs Jansa, 1964     Aug-07-13 M Illescas vs S Rachels, 1987     Aug-06-13 O Feuer vs O'Kelly, 1934     Jul-29-13 Bologan vs Bacrot, 2001     Jul-26-13 A Kornev vs Morozevich, 2011     Jun-12-13 L Barczay vs Sosonko, 1977     Jun-12-13 H Lindehn vs L Maczuski, 1863     Jun-07-13 C Kottnauer vs Bogoljubov, 1932     Jun-07-13 N Pjatakhina vs A Saakova, 1967     Apr-18-13 C Thomson vs A Magalotti, 1988     Apr-15-13 Karpov vs Topalov, 1994     Apr-12-13 Mamedyarov vs Navara, 1999    Apr-06-13 V Sanduleac vs C Paun, 2012     Mar-27-13 R Schmaltz vs R Har-Zvi, 2001     Mar-20-13 Euwe vs Alekhine, 1935     Feb-27-13 T Coleman vs P H Fields, 2011     Feb-17-13 Huebner vs T Luther, 2002     Feb-13-13 R Chavez Monterrosa vs G Mittelman, 2005     Jan-08-13 M J Turner vs J Hector, 1998     Dec-13-12 Nepomniachtchi vs Sasikiran, 2010     Nov-28-12 I Khmelnitsky vs Plachetka, 1997     Nov-24-12 Jakovenko vs Shirov, 2007     Nov-13-12 K Hamppe vs P Meitner, 1872     Nov-10-12 Tal vs J Miller, 1988     Oct-20-12 J Lewi vs J Adamski, 1969     Oct-10-12 D Zagorskis vs J Michenka, 1994     Sep-01-12 Gipslis vs Razuvaev, 1982     Aug-25-12 de Firmian vs N J Patterson, 1978    Jul-23-12 E Sigurdarson vs H Ragnarsson, 2011     Jul-22-12 K Rodriguez vs P Alzola Tovar, 2002     May-29-12 chessgames.com chessforum     May-19-12 Bronstein vs Korchnoi, 1962     Apr-29-12 Karjakin vs Anand, 2006     Apr-22-12 Van Wely vs P Acs, 2002     Apr-14-12 J Kaplan vs Bronstein, 1975     Mar-17-12 Vitacek vs Duras, 1900     Mar-09-12 Radjabov vs Karjakin, 2012     Feb-27-12 Pillsbury vs Fernandez, 1900     Feb-04-12 Bogoljubov vs J Mieses, 1925     Feb-04-12 Steinitz vs Bird, 1866
