Dec-03-21 Carlsen vs Nepomniachtchi, 2021    pittpanther: There are many details in this position but I am confident that white will win this.      Nov-10-21 A Filipowicz vs Knaak, 1974    pittpanther: So, do I get credit for this... If 35 Kxe4 I intended to play Qf4+. 36 Kd3 Bg6 (rather than Qd4 mate) 37. Kc3 Qd4 38. Kb4 a5 39. Ka3 Qa1 ++. My sequence does lead to mate, though much longer than 36 ...Qd4++.      Nov-06-21 M Sorokin vs Ulybin, 1986    pittpanther: Saw the first moves. I have played the French for years so I am happy to see the black side of a French as the position of the day!      Nov-02-21 Tiviakov vs Ponomariov, 2001    pittpanther: I spent several minutes trying to figure out how white wins - then realized it is black to move!      Oct-28-21 Adorjan vs K Hulak, 1977    pittpanther: Dating my self a bit here but I actually own "Black is OK!" and purchased it when it first came out.

Hope chessgames can get their issues sorted through.      Jun-24-21 Svidler vs M Nedobora, 1994    pittpanther: Does anyone know when issues with the "upgrade" will be addressed? Now that the analysis engine no longer works, the daily puzzle shows up in black and white for me rather than color. I hope that the upgrade patch does not take us farther in the wrong direction.      Apr-24-21 J M Iruzubieta Villaluenga vs D W W Gunter, 2001    pittpanther: Seems that 26 ...d5 rather than h5 puts up more resistance by black.      Apr-11-21 V Aveskulov vs M Brooks, 2007    pittpanther: I played Michael Brooks several times in the late 80s and early 90s. He was a strong player, I think ultimately got to IM. He would play in weekend tournaments - and normally won them. I had one interesting ending that went down to R + 2P versus R+1P, i was down a pawn and was ...
