Jun-01-11 CHESSTTCAMPS chessforum    xqdashi: Hi, Sorry for taking a while to get back to you..Just now saw your response. We play approximately one match per month. Yes, many of the matches are played in N. VA (Arlington Chess Club). Some matches are played in downtown DC, and very occasionally matches are played in Bethesda ...      Aug-03-10 L Maczuski vs Kolisch, 1863    xqdashi: C4gambit: After 14...Bf5 white can always go 15.Qe5+. At that point either the B on f5 is lost or if 15...Be6 then the N on e4 is lost.      Jun-04-10 Z Gofshtein vs M Gurevich, 2001    xqdashi: Snosko, yep LOL 35...Qxh2# was possible.      Nov-23-09 Fischer vs Evans, 1963    xqdashi: Resignation Trap, After 17.Re1+ Ne7, 18.Kf2 looks interesting. 18...Bxd4+ doesn't work for Black because 19. Nxd4 Qxf5 20.Nxf5 not only regains the piece but also wins the e7 N. At the same time 18...Bg7? leads to troubles for black after 19. Rxe7+ Kxe7 (Qxe7 Re1 pins) ...      Aug-25-09 Kramnik vs Karpov, 2009    xqdashi: That's 18 Nxf1 cxd4 in the second line.      Aug-25-09 Topalov vs Kramnik, 2009    xqdashi: Thanks percyblakeney for posting the tablebase analysis. It seems identical to my "winning" line, with the inclusion of Rf1+...      Aug-20-09 T Barnes vs Morphy, 1858    xqdashi: mohdsalah can you please explain your assertion that Morphy is "weird" and makes "silly mistakes"???? Can you give an example?      Aug-18-09 J Stopa vs S Greanias, 2009    xqdashi: zenchess, i think you missed something.... 11..e5 12. Ncxe5 Nxe5 13.Nxe5 Nxe5 14. Qd5! attacking both the R on a8 and the pinned N on e5, regaining the piece and ending up up a pawn.      Jan-24-06 N Castaneda vs Y Dembo, 2001    xqdashi: thanks yelena. I'll check them out.      Jul-05-05 S del Rio de Angelis vs T Rendle, 2005    xqdashi: <DanielBryant> You can try "Positional Sacrifices" by Neil McDonald. It covers a lot interesting types of sacrifices including exchange sacs, Q for R+B, etc. all with positional or dynamic considerations rather than immediate tactical follow-ups. It is an excellent book.      Jun-15-05 O Adu vs Z Quan, 2005     May-30-05 J Trapl vs J Stocek, 1995     May-25-05 Vladimir Kramnik     Feb-02-05 S Polgar vs E Cosma, 1994     Jan-13-05 Kupreichik vs A Planinc, 1970     Oct-30-04 Garry Kasparov     Oct-28-04 J P Nelson vs M Basman, 1991     Oct-26-04 Alexandra Kosteniuk     Oct-26-04 J Mieses vs NN, 1900     Sep-28-04 Fischer vs S Schweber, 1970     Sep-24-04 Navara vs McShane, 2004     Sep-03-04 Taimanov vs A Shashin, 1978     Aug-18-04 Maria Manakova     Aug-17-04 J Powell vs C Downing, 1978     Aug-16-04 Alekhine vs L Puharre, 1926     Jul-08-04 Michael Adams     Jul-02-04 B Vladimirov vs Z Doda, 1967     Jul-02-04 Velimirovic vs V Bukal Sr, 1971     Jul-01-04 Anatoly Lein     Jun-16-04 Bronstein vs Saitek Brute Force, 1994     May-26-04 Bobby Fischer     May-21-04 Fischer vs E Nash, 1956     May-17-04 Carlos Torre Repetto     May-17-04 K Erdeky vs Torre, 1924     May-14-04 A Nimzowitsch vs Euwe, 1929     May-14-04 Fidel Castro     May-07-04 Karpov vs J Polgar, 1998     Apr-20-04 P Pflichthofer vs C Flear, 1991     Apr-15-04 Radjabov vs Kasparov, 2004     Apr-15-04 Sakirsjanow vs Usmanow, 1983
