Oct-07-07 P Popovic vs Marjanovic, 1979

iceman77: I got the first move right. The bishop can't be taken cause the queen will take the pawn with a huge initiative. |

May-21-07 Moll vs Falkbeer, 1864 
May-16-07 Korchnoi vs A Petersons, 1965 
|
iceman77: Spot it within a minute. The white knight guards the two escape squares for the black king. So the white rook can force the black king back into the last rank for the knight to execute the pretty mate! |

Apr-10-07 J Schulten vs Horwitz, 1846
