Aug-26-12 A Reshko vs O Kaminsky, 1972 
|
reisanibal: Wikipedia claims that "In the actual game, White promoted to a knight. White won the game because of an error by Black (Müller & Pajeken 2008:219–20)." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promotion_(chess)#Promotio-
n_to_rook_or_bishop
So, which one is correct? |

Jul-02-12 Topalov vs Anand, 2010 
|
reisanibal: Excuse me if this has been asked before and answered. There is just too many comments. I tried to look at them quickly, but did not see a solid answer.
In the final position, the win is very straight-forward with timely g6 and Bg7 idea after the pawn exchange. But if we go couple |

Jul-02-12 W Paige vs E Formanek, 1993 
|
reisanibal: <Jamboree> You are missing white's 46.h6 and white wins easily because black has to play 46...Kg6. Therefore 43...Kf5 deserves not a "!" but "??". The correct move for black is 43...b5 and that leads to a draw as <abuzic> pointed out. |

Jul-01-12 Kamsky vs Shirov, 2007

reisanibal: <jahhaj> 40...Rc7 would not be the correct choice since it shortens the mate by 4 moves. 40.Ke5 Rc7 41.Rh8+ Kg7 42.Rdg8+ Kf7 43.f6 and mate 3 moves later. One variation could be 43...Rg3 44.Rxg3 Re7+ 45.fxe7 Kxe7 46.Rg7#
Correct continuation would be 40...Rd7. Now white ... |

|
reisanibal: I set the last position up on computer (Chessmaster 9000). Both sides were CM9000. And black went on to winning this game :S Maybe, Gelfand resigned too early. Material count is not that bad. |

Jun-30-12 Y Yu vs M R Venkatesh, 2012

reisanibal: <FSR: That's an invalid claim. In the first two instances, Black is on move. In the third, White is on move. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threef >... Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks. |
