vajeer has kibitzed 379 times to chessgames   [more...]

Jul-06-25 Swiercz vs V Kunin, 2009   vajeer: Puzzle is straightforward. But this game is a remindwr of how chess is unforgiving. 29. Be3?? loses a drawn game in one move.      Jul-05-25 E Sedina vs S Tqeshelashvili, 2003    vajeer: Felt like Wednesday level. <An Englishman:Black has no checks, even with the wide open position.> exactly my feeling!      Jul-02-25 D H Fernandez vs J Jackson, 2014    vajeer: Actually the very first deflection comes from 31. d7 At least CG should have started the puzzle there for Wednesday level.      Jun-29-25 So vs C Yoo, 2022    vajeer: Following the SF line 38...Re3 39. Kg1 Rxe2 40. Bxe2 Rg3 41. a6 b6 42. bxc6 Nf8 43. Bc3 Rxg2+ 44. Rxg2 Qe8 here I tried 45. Bd2 and followed this with engine. 45... Qxc6 46. Bxf4 bxc5 47. Rb1 Bb6 48. dxc5 Qxc5+ 49. Kh1 Ng6 50. Bg3 Qe3 eval is -2.98 and engine suggests 51. Bd1 ...      Jun-28-25 O Cvitan vs S Terzic, 1989    vajeer: After 28...Qd5 29. Kh2 SF suggests 29...Qb7. [DIAGRAM] I also tried 29...Ra7 where game may continue as 30. Qh8+ Ke7 31. Bf6+ Kd7 32. Qxd8+ Kc6 33. Qc8+ [DIAGRAM] Now black must play Rc7 allowing white to capture the knight on a5. Eval by engine +4.4      Jun-19-25 C Yoo vs Niemann, 2020    vajeer: <cocker: C Yoo jimmy> C Yoo.... thanks but Nie Mann 😉      Jun-15-25 C Aravindh vs X Xu, 2025   vajeer: Black started to commit small errors from 16...Re8 onward. 16...h6 or 16...Nc6 would have been better.      Jun-13-25 E S Jackson vs Denker, 1934    vajeer: I went with Rxb2 also. It's winning but Qf5+ is better.      Jun-06-25 Hromadka vs K Treybal, 1912    vajeer: Saw 25.Rxf7 Bxg3 26.Rxg7+ Kh8 27.Rxg3 Was happy with whites's position at this point. Black rook has no good spots on the back rank really as the SF analysis and the game text shows. In desperation(from black's perspective) I tried 27...a5 [DIAGRAM] White now wins after 28.Bg7+ ...      May-31-25 Pachman vs Uhlmann, 1966    vajeer: 21. Rxc4 Qxc4 22. Rc1 Qa4 23. Nxe6 plays out itself. From here is the difficult part, especially over the board.
