Oct-12-24 S Bojkovic vs Gligoric, 1979   sackman: Wow! In a tense position, 20 ... d4! sets off a big tactical melee. Nicely played by Gligoric.      Oct-08-24 Mamedyarov vs P Maghsoodloo, 2024    sackman: Another demonstration of how tricky K and P endgames can be - a single move 67..c2 turns black's position from advantageous (though would be a long win) to a dead loss      Feb-06-24 Smyslov vs Euwe, 1948    sackman: <KEG> many thanks for the very extensive commentary as well as suggestions. very insightful to have the compilation of the thoughts of all the experts (including the players). And to observe their disagreements...      Oct-15-23 Dominguez Perez vs Shankland, 2023   sackman: Stockfish surprisingly rates this equal =0.00 at move 60 after whites exchange sac.      Apr-21-23 R Byrne vs P Bachmann, 1952    sackman: Like Al Wazir I couldn't get past 41...

Thank you agb2002 for the analysis and FSR for the very plausible explanation.      Jan-09-23 E Moradiabadi vs N Croad, 2023   sackman: 19 Qxg6+! is a very pretty finish and would make a nice Monday puzzle.      Oct-21-21 G Pieroni vs T Abergel, 2006   sackman: "Beating the retreat " An impressive positional queen sacrifice. The way that white's queen is marched backwards d6 to f4 to f3 to e2 to e1 to b1 is very entertaining.      Oct-17-21 A Smith vs Jansa, 2009    sackman: A puzzle indeed. I guessed the same first moves as <drollere> but then got stuck i see why now. SF recommends 19 Kb1 (!!!) with a tiny edge to white bet no-one picked that...      Sep-13-21 Hort vs J Zajic, 1960   sackman: Ouch! That's gotta Hort.      Aug-25-21 Nunn vs Karpov, 1989   sackman: I should have said, at least the exchange
