Mar-31-23 Kiven Plesset

| drdos7: Interesting, Plesset only has 5 games on chessgames.com, but 2 of them made it to become the game of the day.
I knew Kiven (Ken) Plesset back when he was here in the Columbus, Ohio area (I think it was the late 80's early 90's perhaps). He helped found a new chess club at the YMCA ... |

Jun-04-21 Kasparov vs Deep Thought, 1989
| |
| drdos7: <Xonatron> <Stockfish 8 (after 6m20s) finally shows mate in 43 in the final position. It continues to narrow it down. After 9m40s it shows mate in 23. All with 37... Rc5. In years to come, it will be interesting to compare this analysis.> Houdini_5_Pro_pext_x64 Says Mate ... |

| |
| drdos7: <computer chess guy> As your computer probably already pointed out 51.f4?? is a blunder and the losing move in an otherwise dead draw game. |

Jun-03-21 Bogoljubov vs Kashdan, 1930
| |
| drdos7: <jerseybob> 5.Bf4 is a solid book move, and after that move white held an advantage up to move 21 where he was outright winning if he played the right move 21.Qc2! instead of 21.Bc2?? which loses. |

Apr-06-21 E Nikolic vs Fischer, 1968
| |
| drdos7: 21.a6 has been proposed in the comments as better for white, however it gets crushed also by the following: 21.a6 Nf3 22.Bxf3 gxf3 23.Ng2 bxa6 24.Nh4 Qg4 and Stockfish sees +7.65 for Black, if instead we try 23.axb7??? as shown in SwitchingQuylthulg's line White gets mated (forced) ... |

Apr-05-21 F Baumbach vs J Sloth, 2001
| |
| drdos7: " rwbean: 18... ♘e4 drops out of the top 10 moves of SF13 quickly. Black's game goes downhill after that.
The top suggested moves are 18... h5 or 18... g6." I don't think that 18... ♘e4 was even close to being enough to lose the game... Stockfish seems to think that ... |
