Jan-14-16 Nunn vs M Borriss, 2000   iamdeafzed: With 22.Rdg1, the black bishop is pinned and hence, 23.Qxh7# is once again threatened. 22...Re8 loses to 23.Rxg6+,fxg6 (23...hxg6 24.Qh8#) 24.Qxh7+,Kf8 25.Bh6# 22...Kh8 also loses to 23.Rxg6      Jan-14-16 Nunn vs M Stolz, 2001    iamdeafzed: 35.Qxd7# is threatened, and 34...Rxd8 loses to 35.gxh5. Probably safe to say, therefore, that 31...Qxh5 was the move that sealed black's fate. Not that his position looked that good anyway.      Mar-10-15 M Hebden vs Nunn, 1997   iamdeafzed: Threat in the end position is 39.Rh4#, and attempting to defend against it via 38...Be4 loses to 39.Qh4+ and 40.Rxe4. 25....d4 seems (to me) to be the stinky move after which black's game just went from bad to worse.      Mar-10-15 Morphy vs NN, 1856    iamdeafzed: Unless I'm missing something, 24.Bd3+,Kh8 (or 24...Qxd3 25.cxd3, which should be an obvious win for white) 25.Qf8# was a quicker checkmate. Still a nice game to go through in any case.      Nov-22-14 Staunton vs Cochrane, 1842   iamdeafzed: <BTW, Houdini more or less likes the play of both sides until 26.Qg4?> My guess is that 26.Qg4 was intended to stop black from playing g6. Unfortunately, this has the drawback of shutting in the bishop on f5 and doesn't really even stop g6 anyway, which black aptly ...      Oct-12-14 Anderssen vs Loewenthal, 1851   iamdeafzed: <I don't know what 17. c4 was about, since at the very least Black could have picked up the exchange.> My guess is that c4 was played with the idea of c5 next and shutting out the bishop on b6. Unfortunately, this move is just too darned slow in this position. White ...      Sep-08-13 Radjabov vs Milov, 2005   iamdeafzed: Black's rook is attacked in the end position, it only has two safe squares it can flee to, and both choices lose quickly: 44...Re7 45.Qc8 And the black bishop will fall, along with black's king shortly thereafter. 44...Rb8 45.Qf6+; Kh7 46.Qxf7+, and checkmate next move      Aug-07-13 D Kumaran vs Miles, 1993   iamdeafzed: Miles must have missed 13.Nb5+. Understandably...not an easy move to have seen over-the-board, 5 moves (10 ply) prior.      Aug-07-13 Korchnoi vs Simagin, 1960    iamdeafzed: <Well, after 11.dxe6 Bxe3 12. fxe3 fxe6 black is not a pawn down either. He is standing worse, still no reason to resign yet. (After 12. exd7 Bf4 I even prefer Black).> 11.dxe6,Bxe3 12.exf7+!,Rxf7 13.fxe3 would still leave white a pawn up, plus with the threat of Bc4. I ...      Aug-06-13 Carlsen vs Van Wely, 2006   iamdeafzed: For future reference, the phrase 'for future reference' is a future reference to how a future reference shouldn't really be referred to as a future reference. Future reference.      Aug-05-13 T Ghitescu vs Fischer, 1960     Aug-05-13 Bondarevsky vs Dzindzichashvili, 1962     Aug-05-13 K Grigorian vs Dzindzichashvili, 1969     Aug-05-13 D Pavasovic vs A Kunte, 1995    Aug-05-13 D Pavasovic vs P Petek, 1993    Aug-05-13 D Pavasovic vs I Balinov, 2003    Aug-05-13 Dzindzichashvili vs A Sandrin, 1985    Jul-24-13 Nepomniachtchi vs Ivanchuk, 2010     Jul-14-13 Eljanov vs Ivanchuk, 2005    May-16-13 J Tisdall vs Sax, 1977    Apr-17-13 Aronian vs Ivanchuk, 2013     Apr-11-13 E Friedman vs Dzindzichashvili, 1991    Apr-09-13 I Malakhov vs M Kravtsiv, 2012     Apr-09-13 N Georgiadis vs Rozentalis, 2013    Apr-02-13 Sax vs Dzindzichashvili, 1978    Mar-22-13 Korchnoi vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1957    Mar-12-13 A Feuerstein vs Dzindzichashvili, 1992    Mar-11-13 Dzindzichashvili vs E Haag, 1969    Jan-04-13 Mamedyarov vs Carlsen, 2012     Jan-04-13 Carlsen vs Karjakin, 2012     Sep-17-12 H Barber vs M Hebden, 2000     Sep-11-12 Spassky vs Korchnoi, 1977     Sep-11-12 Polgar vs R Mamedov, 2012    Sep-09-12 M Fette vs Nunn, 2000    Sep-07-12 E Keogh vs Nunn, 2000     Sep-06-12 P K Wells vs Nunn, 2001    Jul-24-12 Radjabov vs Ivanchuk, 2012    Jul-16-12 Smeets vs Carlsen, 2006     Jul-13-12 R Nezhmetdinov vs A Shestoperov, 1961    Jul-13-12 Bagirov vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1961     Jul-11-12 R Nezhmetdinov vs H Liebert, 1961    Jul-08-12 W Estrada Degrandi vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1961    May-18-12 R Nezhmetdinov vs V Shiyanovsky, 1957     May-16-12 Topalov vs Anand, 2005     May-05-12 Korchnoi vs Polugaevsky, 1984     May-02-12 Tal vs Uhlmann, 1970     Apr-30-12 Petrosian vs S Schweber, 1962     Apr-26-12 Nunn vs F Olafsson, 1983    Apr-26-12 H Ree vs Nunn, 1983    Apr-26-12 A Kuligowski vs Nunn, 1983    Apr-26-12 Nunn vs Korchnoi, 1983    Apr-13-12 Petrosian vs J Kozma, 1958     Apr-03-12 R Nezhmetdinov vs S Pimenov, 1936     Mar-30-12 R Nezhmetdinov vs V Tatarintsev, 1964    Mar-26-12 Nunn vs Shirov, 1996     Mar-26-12 E Stoliar vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1957    Mar-26-12 R Nezhmetdinov vs V Zhilin, 1958     Mar-18-12 Marshall vs Tarrasch, 1905     Mar-07-12 Anand vs F Izeta Txabarri, 1993     Mar-05-12 Tal vs Vaganian, 1973     Mar-04-12 Reshevsky vs Tal, 1970     Mar-04-12 Tal vs E E Book, 1961    Feb-18-12 Carlsen vs K Trygstad, 2002     Feb-16-12 Korchnoi vs Anand, 1992    Feb-16-12 Anand vs D Pardo Simon, 2007    Jan-25-12 Tal vs Korchnoi, 1970     Jan-25-12 J Canepa vs Alekhine, 1938    Jan-16-12 Shirov vs Adams, 1996    Dec-24-11 Unzicker vs Tal, 1990     Dec-04-11 Reshevsky vs Petrosian, 1953     Nov-24-11 Alekhine vs K Richter, 1942     Nov-13-11 R Nezhmetdinov vs Shamkovich, 1954     Oct-26-11 V Sjoberg vs Alekhine, 1912     Jun-23-11 Fischer vs Spassky, 1992
