Jun-09-15 H T Nguyen vs Van Huy Nguyen, 2005    openningspecialist: <LIzzard: Does anyone see something wrong with black playing Qf3 first?> 33. Qc8+ Rxc8 34. Rxc8#      Jun-04-15 R Vera vs M Leon Hoyos, 2011    openningspecialist: Tough one. I didn't consider anything other than 34. ... Bf5 35. Rb2 Nd3 36. Bxd3 Bxd3 37. Bf2 Bxc4 38. Qa4 b5 ... Black has the 2 bishops.      Mar-12-15 P Amiri vs Gleizerov, 2005    openningspecialist: I opted for: 20. ... Nxd4 21. Qxe7 Nf3+ I believe it mates or wins a queen. 22. Kf1 Qg1+ 23. Ke2 Qe1+ 24.
