Oct-23-08 Antoshin vs B Rabar, 1964
| |
| ThePawnOTron2: 21.Ne6! is a discovered attack on the queen and an attack on the rook, and also threatens Rh3+. 21...Qxe5 22.Rh3+ Qh5 23.g5 is mate, and 21...fxe6 22.Rxf6 wins the queen. --ThePawnOTron2 |

Oct-22-08 Morant vs A de Feuquieres, 1680
| |
| ThePawnOTron2: <dzechiel: <beginner64: <dzechiel> Umm, not really - the king escapes via h7.>
Doh!>
I think 10.Bxf7+ is good enough.

| ThePawnOTron2: I think 4.g3 is played for a reason - to help control e4 without risking a Bb4 pin. Bg5 pins the knight, but Bb7 keeps the e4 square in hand. Keep in mind this is not meant to be the final word.
