Jul-19-03		crafty: 30. e8+ xe8 31. xe8+ xe8 32. c7+ xf3 33. c8=# (eval Mat03; depth 13 ply; 10M nodes)

Jul-19-03		John Doe: Or a less artistic mate in 4: 1. Qe8+ Rxe8 2. Rxe8+ Bxe8 3. c7+ Rxf3 4. c8Q#

Jul-19-03		Sneaky: The crafty / John Doe line is better than what was actually played, because here it's not a forced mate. (Black might have played 31...Kb7.)

Jul-19-03		tdanford: Isn't there still a forced mate after what was played? 32. ... Kb7 33. c8=Q+ Kb6 34. Qc5+ and no matter whether the King moves to a6 or b7, he's eventually mated along the a-file (a3) or on a8 or b8?

Jul-19-03		John Doe: The other line is a forced mate in 10: 1. c7+ Rxf3 2. Qe8+ Rxe8 3. Rxe8+ Kb7 4. c8Q+ Kb6 5. Qc5+ Ka6 6. Qc6+ Ka5 7. Re5+ Bd5 8. Rxd5+ Kb4 9. Rb5+ Ka4 10. Qa6# 1-0

Jul-21-03		Honza Cervenka: What about 29...Kc8?

Feb-14-07		sfm: <Honza Cervenka: What about 29...Kc8?> 30.Qe2 looks strong.

Feb-27-07		Andreiko: 21.Rfd1 is a bad move, what you think about 21.Rfe1?

Feb-27-07		Andreiko: "Honza Cervenka: What about 29...Kc8?" I think that black can resist better...the variation is to analyze. A.

Mar-04-07		schnarre: No end to the sacs by White! I love it!

Apr-09-07		beatgiant: I don't think the piece sac was sound. For example, Black can play 26...Rxf3! 27. gxh3 Rxe3 28. Rxe3 dxc4, reaching an endgame with a large material advantage.

May-01-07		beatgiant: <sfm: <Honza Cervenka: What about 29...Kc8?> 30.Qe2 looks strong.> But 29...Kc8 30. Qe2 <Bc4!> (can't be taken because of the attack on g2) and then 31. Qb2 Qh7 32. Rb1 Qc7, and White's attack appears to fizzle out.

Dec-18-08		thebribri8: Amazing!

Apr-07-09		sfm: <But 29...Kc8 30. Qe2 Bc4!> I can't find anything for White! Does that mean that 29.-,Kc8 would have won?

Dec-30-09		Karpova: Mieses considers this game to be his most exciting game. Jacques Mieses: <it holds as much interest and excitement as I would ever wish to experience> From Mieses' article �My Most Exciting Game�, pages 280-281 of 'CHESS', 14 April 1939.
