| fouard: What a pleasant surprise to see one of Conrad's games here! Our best player in Kansas, he is still in high school, and will likely show up here many more times. |

Nov-15-10 M W Haug vs Robson, 2009
| |
| fouard: AJ - how do you know it's a Master tourney? It could just be a youth event - I believe they are both under 18. |

Nov-08-10 Van Wely vs C Hansen, 1992
| |
| fouard: Must have been near the end of Time Control - no way the Dutch GM should fall to this. |

Nov-03-10 C Guimard vs Euwe, 1946
| |
| fouard: That's why I wait until the next day. They screw it up a lot (wrong move, etc.), and you have wasted your time. You West Coasters get it at 9pm, I imagine. But it's not a race, anyway. |

Aug-02-10 S Cicak vs A Khruschiov, 2008
| |
| fouard: 48 Nf8. The only move avoiding Qh7 mate is Kg8, which proceeds: 49 Nxd7 d1=Q 50 Nf6+.
Now 50...Kf8 51 Qe8 mate or
50...Kh8 51 Qh8 mate. |

May-12-10 A Bannik vs Y Nikolaevsky, 1958
| |
| fouard: Simple. 54 Bxb6, forcing ...Bxb6. Then 55 g6 forces ...Bd4. Now 56 b6. |

May-06-10 Beliavsky vs Adams, 1989
| |
| fouard: I see I missed the throwaway moves - oh, well. Maybe White was in time trouble, because the original game player missed the quicker combo, it appears. |

Apr-10-10 D Rajkovic vs Damljanovic, 1991
| |
| fouard: Now after reading Abuzic's post, I conclude that I am wrong (first time today, though!) - the threat of 52...Rb8 forces white to take the draw by perpet. |
