Apr-19-24 R R Raja vs S Citak, 2023
| |
| numbersguy70: Very interesting tactics in the Catalan, accepting a 2 pawn deficit in the first 10 moves. 15. might make a good Wednesday-ish puzzle. |

Dec-06-21 Nepomniachtchi vs Carlsen, 2021 
| |
| numbersguy70: Agreed, Lambda. As deranged as Fischer was in '73, he was onto something with the "draws don't count" idea. |

| numbersguy70: I'm no Trump fan, but Biden is a Trojan Horse for Harris, and, given the chance, she will be straw on the camel's back to send the US dollar the way of the Venezuelan bolivar. |

Nov-30-17 G Barbero vs G Andruet, 1986
| |
| numbersguy70: 34.e6 isn't even the most direct route. Mate in 8 starts with Qf6, then either e6, Qc6, or Rh8. |

Nov-11-17 A Chandra vs So, 2016
| |
| numbersguy70: <patzer2>: Seems to me today's Saturday puzzle (23...?) is more a study in active positional play than it is in computing a winning combination. Well said. I need to learn not to be annoyed by puzzles that don't have a clear win as a solution. |

| |
| numbersguy70: 51...a1 (N) was a nice taunt for not resigning 25 moves earlier |

Nov-23-16 Karjakin vs Carlsen, 2016
| |
| numbersguy70: 46.Qd4 is a great move. Everything the computer likes to hold (K to e file or Bf4) looks ugly on the surface. |

Nov-24-15 Y Sakharov vs R Nezhmetdinov, 1957
| |
| numbersguy70: I think it's a Tuesday puzzle because the solution is only two moves deep. Easily won endgame after knight is won, though I agree, not the typical deathblow we're used to seeing in puzzles. |
